Thread: Impatica viaDock

(Image courtesy of BerryReview)

Ever wanted to run your berry on your PC and control all features on a bigger screen? Impatica viaDock allows you to do just that! This program allows you to use your BlackBerry on your desktop or laptop via Bluetooth or USB connections. The program allows you to use quite a few functions on your phone as well. List of the funtions:

• Create a fully integrated environment: Use your PC and BlackBerry applications through one single system when at the office, home or anywhere you use a PC.
• Connect quickly and easily: Connect via Bluetooth or USB to your desktop or notebook PC.
• Share clipboards: Easily copy and paste text between your PC and BlackBerry applications.
• Quickly switch between BlackBerry applications: Use the application launcher or menu shortcuts to start using any application running on your BlackBerry.
• Dial and receive phone calls: Use on-screen phone controls to quickly make and answer phone calls, enable and disable hands-free talking and turn on and off mute.
• Know who is calling: Get instant notification of incoming calls while using viaDock, or through mini view when using other applications.
• Monitor your BlackBerry status: Always know your battery and radio signal strengths at a glance.

The program runs at $39.99 which is a good price compared to $99/year from Bayalink Liberty. There are a few bugs in the program like the Storm's numbers do not work properly. But other then that, this is almost to good to be true!

Head over to Impactia to check out viaDock!

Wow sounds pretty cool

haha i would get this just for brickbreaker on my computer!

This is interesting, although I don't know if I like it or not. But I guess I can see where there would be value in an application like this.

Very cool....If I could get it to work....

If anyone has had success with Snow Leopard and a Tour running .191, let me know....

I cannot get the bluetooth to work properly....

Just talked to their tech support.....

It is untested on Snow Leopard and OS 5.x.x.x

They are going to get back to me when they have a workaround.....

Hey, I tried this with my Bold running .190 and I could not pair it. I tried my wife's 9500 which is not running 5.0 and it works, a bit slow, but works great.

I'm using a Unibody MBP with Snow Leopard.

If you have any luck with your tour please comment.

trying again with USB now that we have DM for Mac

No dice....still waiting to hear from Impatica's Engineering department for a solution.....
