I'm not sure about Fido, but I know you can do it on Rogers (at least that's what I helped one of the justalilhype guys set up)
I would understand it working perfectly for normal phone data because of the ipad plans but I am questioning being able to use Blackberry data. Oh well I'll ask around

And I said you can just get a SIM card with blackberry data on it.

Just ask for a Sim activated on the $0.00 network access and $15 for personal email and IM for blackberries.

Data is data, the only difference between blackberries and every other data phone out there is BIS access.

Now, you might have to do some sweet talking as it was intended for Data Sticks, but it has been done several times before.

I have a friend who just wants a phone for texting lol I will advise him on this.
Actually maybe I should get in on this, GF hates me for ditching her on BBM
Fuck yes, if this is true, I'm gonna try on fido first and if they can't do it, I'll port over to Rogers. I've always wanted this.

Do you use iFunBox to move the files over onto your phone?

Haven't really read into how people are watching their avi files

Any good apps lately? Ever since I got my iPhone replaced and forgot what the fuck games I had, I've had fewer apps in general. I guess that's a good thing since if I can't remember, those apps were probably pretty useless.

White iPhone 4 Confirmed by Apple for Spring 2011
The illusive white iPhone 4 was first delayed back on the launch day when it was pushed to July, the second one was in July when it was delayed till “until later this year”. And then recently, Apple delayed it again until spring 2011 before removing it altogether from their online Apple Store site.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs poses with the white iPhone 4 during the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco, California June 7, 2010.

Light-leakage was tipped as the number reason behind all these delays.

When the white iPhone 4 takes a photograph, the semi-translucent glass cases leaks extra light into the camera which absolutely ruins photographs. Cult of Mac’s source said, “You don’t get accurate pictures on the white iPhone because of the color of the glass back. It washes out the pictures”. The source also said that Apple might have to do a complete redesign of the white iPhone 4 to deal with the light leaks.

But now, 9to5Mac has a shot of some new signage in Apple Stores which states that: “The white iPhone will be available Spring 2011”.

I used to like comic reader mobi but they charge 15 dollars for it now.

you can still find it on installous but the bitch thing about it is you have to download comicsync on your pc and connect to the phone over wifi. the transferring of comics is buggy and annoying though.

too bad because the unique thing about the program was that you could just tap on the speech bubbles and they would popup bigger so you can read it while the rest of the comic still fits the screen.


Right now I'm using Comic reader Zeal as it seems to be the most popular.

It doesn't have the same cool feature as mobi but transferring comics can be easily down with drag n drop via itunes.
