    Default Any "Gotta Have" Apps for Blackberry?

    My wife and I decided to dive headfirst into the 21st Century. We upgraded from our VERY BASIC cell phone plan to a plan with full-fledged texting, email, internet capabilities, etc. I am now the proud owner of a Blackberry Curve. Don't really know how to use it yet but I'm learning.

    So, are there any apps for my new Blackberry that I just GOTTA HAVE? I'm paying for the privelege so might as well make the most of it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Get Shazam. Not always useful, and maybe not a 'gotta have' but for the situations in which you'd use it, its awesome.

    Ever been out to a bar, restaurant, mall, or even just listening to a radio, and a song comes on that youve heard a milliion times, or maybe just sounds familiar? Hit up Shazam, and it will use the phone's speaker to listen to the song, then tell you what it is.

    Run down to the local hardware and get a 12 pound sledgehammer. Apply directly to the face of the Blackberry. Fixes everyone I have ever seen.

    When I was important enough to have a Crackberry it had a GPS that could be useful at times. I'm not that important at the moment.

    Since you're hanging out with fishermen and ladies, you might want to look into some type of waterproof container to put it in. I proved they are not water tolerant themself.

    Pandora is very handy at times. I don't have a ton of stuff on mine, but Facebook and an ESPN shortcut get used from time to time.

    This, perfect.



    Honestly though the best thing you can get for your blackberry is an "Otter Box" best phone case made. Protected mine for 2 years of fishing, hunting, and working construction.

    Royce,
    If available for the Blackberry format, Google Mobile App is a great tool. It contains "voice search" which allows you to say, for example, " fly fishing ", and it'll open links in Google to that subject. Also "photo search" which lets you take a photo of something and if information regarding THAT photo is in the data base, it'll tell ya what it is. I use mine, on Apple iPhone4, as a spelling aid. Just say the word and it'll show you the correct spalling,definition and correct pronunciation. It also
    "identifies barcodes, products, famous landmarks, storefronts, artwork, business cards, and print ads".
    As far as these devices in general, I can and do operate ( when away from home) my entire business via a Quickbooks with my iPhone. AND as an added benefit I can also view my grandkids photos or videos if I have a free moment. I am not a techy junkie but these devices are AMAZING and much more than just an expensive phone.
