I got Pixelated and Contacts Cleaner based on their recommendation. Contacts Cleaner removes the duplicates from your Blackberry Address book. I highly recommend this app!

Interestingly enough, RIM (the maker of the Blackberry) put Contacts Cleaner on their top App recommendations as well. From their list, I also got the bbq one. Enjoy!

It makes a big difference when your address book is void of the hunting/pecking.

You can download a free trial from http://www.starping.mobi
It’s only good for US and Canada though

I need to be able to see what appointments I have personally and professionally. I would like to have different colors for my different categories, just like Outlook 2007

It is the only BB application I have found where you can create customizable sms, pins and emails right from your BB, for out of office replies. Really an ingenious solution to allow for some BB relief. My favorite app hands down.

Sure there is Google Reader and I do use it on my laptop, but Viigo is infinitely easier to use on the go. It allows easy and free 1-click access to over 5,000 channels, the ability to add your own feeds, package tracking, weather, alerts and sharing.

It’s definitely worthy of inclusion as a Killer Application or at the very least exploring further.

With this solution, KPI’s (Key Performance Indicators) become reatime available on on your BlackBerry. When you receive an alert by email that a specific KPI might be lower than the bounderies you set, you can directly analyze the root cause of the problem. Have a look at http://www.transpara.com

Maybe when it’s fresh out of the box. But if you want to bump it up a few notches, here are seven powerful applications that can transform the way you use and interact with your BlackBerry. Jott for BlackBerryIn a previous article, I covered tips for getting more from BlackBerry email. One application I didn’t mention is Jott for BlackBerry, which is an extension of its main service that lets you reply to messages using your voice. Jott transcribes your verbal message to text before sending it on to the recipient and includes a link in the email to hear the voice recording in case of transcription errors. The Jott voice recognition engine is amazing – even my laid-back Aussie drawl, which is usually a challenge for anyone out of the country to understand, let alone a machine, was transcribed with 100% accuracy.
