    "You Drive Me Crazy" Britney Spears, letting your BlackBerry get dangerously close to any form of liquid, but I have to admit, I like her style. Nothing better than babes, bikinis, and BlackBerrys all-in-one, at least that's the impression I'm getting from AgentBlackBerry. Personally I'm more of a boat, bikini and BlackBerry kind of girl, but I suppose that's only because my name doesn't start with a B! Gosh darnit. Maybe in another lifetime.

    Heiress and socialite, Paris Hilton, was captured on camera expertly matching her outfit as well as accessories to her white BlackBerry Torch. While she may claim it was all a coincidence, it's hard to believe that anyone that's always in such a bright spotlight would be anything but perfectly put together. Good thing she has on some dark sunglasses, even better that they're coordinated as well!

    The Black Friday deals may have been too good for Best Buy. Earlier in the week Best Buy like many other stores reported that they would be selling the 16 GB BlackBerry PlayBook at $199.99, that's about $300 in saving. I like many others were excited to take advantage of killer prices, practically giving the PlayBook away.

    The excitement quickly turned into frustration as many people have been having their order cancelled with little or no explanation. Statements like the device being out of stock or your payment was unable to be processed were among the number of explanations that users have been receiving from Best Buy. I was able to get a Best Buy representative on the phone and they stated that corporate had "cancelled all BlackBerry PlayBook orders". Forum posts regarding the issue have been quickly popping up over at the official Best Buy Forums. Clearly somethings going on. Whats going on with Best Buy? Do they have the device or not? If you are experiencing something like this from Best Buy please let us know in the forums.

    Attention Spaniards and Italians: BBM Music is officially available to you! If you haven't already lunged for your BlackBerry to download BBM Music, now is the time to do so!
    • Step One: Download BBM Music from the App World.
    • Step Two: Create your very own music profile and pick 50 of your favorite songs from millions up for grabs.
    • Step Three: Add your friends! Invite your fellow BBM buddies and gain access to their 50 songs as well. The more friends you have on BBM Music means the more songs you can listen to.
    • Step Four: Start listening. Grab some earphones or play through the speakers to allow everyone to enjoy and bring on the music.
    Are you a fan of long road-trips or need certain songs for working out? BBM Music allows you to build custom playlists to meet your specific music needs. Each month you can switch out up to 25 (of your 50) songs to freshen up your listening habits. The songs you have listened to can also be cached to your SD card to allow access to all your songs even when you're offline and can't connect to your wireless network. Even better: free trial for a whole month! After that, access to BBM Music will cost you only $5 per month. That's 10 cents per song if you never swap them out, and roughly seven cents if you swap out 25. I'm not sure where else you can pay that little for music right on your BlackBerry, which means one thing.. Go download BBM Music now!

    About a couple weeks ago RIM announced that Indonesia would be the first to get the new Bold 9790 device and since then there has been a lot of anticipation for today's launch day. To add fuel to the fire, the device is being offered at half price. Add the two together and you get at least 90 people passed out, three suffered broken bones, and only a handful of happy 9790 owners. During the promotion, in which the phones were sold for Rp 2.3 million ($260) at just half the normal retail price of Rp 4.6 million.

    Let's think about this for a sec... you get up in the morning all happy-go-giddy to purchase a half priced BB 9790, to only end up lying on a stretcher via Pacific Place mall in South Jakarta to the nearest Hospital to treat your broken leg. Yikes!

    A new app is out that allows you to copy your iTunes collection to your BlackBerry PlayBook. This is a nice easy way to get all of your songs from iTunes to your PlayBook. Currently it does not support copying music from your PlayBook to your PC. The cost is a deal at $0.99.

    Software description from the vendor:

    If you're like me, keeping your mobile devices up-to-date with your latest music purchases is a hassle. I've always wished it was a simple as pressing a button -- and now it is. iTunes Sync allows you to copy your iTunes collection from your Windows PC to your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ with the press of a button, no wires, no hassle.

    Download a new song on your PC? No problem, just open iTunes Sync on your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ and press 'Sync', and that track will be copied onto your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ wirelessly in seconds.Download all of your music, or use features that allow you greater control over what music gets copied to your BlackBerry® PlayBook™.

    NOTE
    : iTunes Sync does not yet copy music from your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ to your PC.

    The topic of syncing email data like calendar and contacts to a BlackBerry device seems to come up quite frequently. I was reminded of this from a blog post from RIM, that also showed some steps on how to do this. So I decided to follow suite and write up a quick tutorial for everyone here. So I hope this will help someone. The first think you will want to check is your software version, as the version must be OS 5.0 or higher. If you find yourself with a lower OS version than OS 5.0 then you will want to take a look at our download section and see if there is an update for your device. Then take a look at our all in one guide to upgrade your device.

    Since the BBX OS was first announced at Devcon Americas back in Oct there has been a lot of hype as to what the new design of the BBX Superphone will look like. So far there has been two possible codenamed devices, the London and Colt, but nothing as far as a visual until last week when a picture of the BlackBerry London was leaked online. Keep in mind that this photo has not been confirmed by RIM, yet there have been a few sites claiming that their own "unconfirmed" sources have "confirmed" the photo as legit... figure that one out. But does the recently leaked picture of the London really depict what we have heard about the upcoming BBX device so far, and how it will look? I happen to believe the BBX-like phone design in the above pic will be closer to the final product, and here is why...
