Love seeing those nice sports calendars in your Google Calendar, but hate that you can't sync them over to BlackBerry or Android? Yahoo Sports calendars is the solution.
Upgrading a BlackBerry Storm to 5.0.0.230
Someone (great app, pay the $5 for the ad-less version) asked me if there were any tricks to upgrading a Verizon BlackBerry Storm (9530) to the latest leaked OS, and this is what I came up with:
FileScout tip for BlackBerry Storm users
S
o, this guy makes a great File Manager app for BlackBerry called FileScout.
One of the newer (and most useful in my opinion) features is the ability to select multiple files and attach them to an email right from the app. The only way to do this natively in the BlackBerry OS is to create an email and then attach each file one-by-one until you're finished.
Here's the tip:
BlackBerry OS 5.0.0.230 for Storm
Some love for the Storm users. OS 5.0.0.230
How to install 5.0.0.230 on your Storm
In short, install 5.0.0.191 and unzip .230 over it, then run apploader.
BlackBerry Storm price cut

Yep, when the price is slashed to 25% of the original it's a blowout... an inventory blowout, ifyaknowwhatimean...
via Verizon cuts BlackBerry Storm pricing to $50.
Open Table Mobile not working from BB AppWorld?
Since BlackBerry AppWorld seems to be having some issues downloading/installing the new OpenTable mobile app for BB, here's some instructions:
- go here: http://www.getjar.com/products/28420/OpenTable
- download the .alx and the .cod files to your PC (I don't think the device matters)
- connect BB to PC, start up DM ( :-p )
- goto Application Loader
- goto Add/Remove Applications
- click Browse, find the downloaded .alx file
- click Next
...and that should be it; now go make a reservation!
