BlackBerry Applications

Postby Woodduckdawg » Tue Jan 20, 2009 10:23 am

I finally broke down and purchased a Blackberry Curve recently.

Are there any "hidden" or can't miss applications I should know about? Ideally I would like to find one to do a budget so I can see how much money I don't currently have, but anything else is fair game.
If it doesn't work out there will never be any doubt that the pleasure was worth all the pain.

Google maps is pretty cool you can pull road maps, use it like a gps! It will locate you within 3 meters. You can even pull sat photos!

The facebook application is pretty cool. Of course you have to have a Facebook account first..

It is a browser that allows you to browse the web on your blackberry and view pages like they look on the PC
