So, you are probably thinking to yourself, “can’t you already get your Gmail pushed to your BlackBerry for free?” The answer is yes, however, the argument could be made that getting email on your BlackBerry via BIS is really not free because you pay a service charge for you BlackBerry every month.
emoze, on the other hand, is now offering push Gmail to just about every mobile handset and they are claiming that it is completely free. All you have to do is download the emoze client directly to your mobile device by visiting mobile.emoze.com from your handheld’s browser, or via a web-based wizard at www.emoze.com.
I would argue that emoze isn’t really free either unless wireless carriers have started offering free data plans. To make a long story short, if you don’t have a BlackBerry but would still like to get BlackBerry-like push based email on your mobile phone from your Gmail account, you’re in luck.

Rumor has it that AT&T will launch the Wi-Fi enabled BlackBerry 8820, next Tuesday, September 4th. That’s about a week and a half before the first launch date that we heard.
Additionally, there is no indication that the GPS functionality in the BlackBerry 8820 will be locked down like previously thought.

I’ve heard a few rumors recently that the BlackBerry 7130e is going “End of Life” at the end of October. This move by RIM is probably in anticipation of the release of the CDMA BlackBerry Pearl 2 that we’ve heard is coming to both Verizon and Sprint in November.
I personally use the Verizon BlackBerry 7130e, and, although it has been very good to me, am admittedly ready to upgrade to something new. I thought about moving to the 8703e and even the 8830, however, I am one of those crazy folks that absolutely loves SureType. The BlackBerry Pearl 2 can’t get here soon enough.

Well, they probably don’t want to take it away, however, I am sure that Atari would like to get paid royalties for BrickBreaker as well as Meteor Crusher. The company is claiming the games infringe on the copyrights of Breakout and Asteroids, respectively.
Fortunately for Research in Motion they’ve won the latest round in their legal dispute with Atari.
Last year, RIM asked the court for a declaration that its games do not violate the copyright on the classic arcade games that gobbled many a quarter in the 1970s. The Waterloo company says it filed the court action in response to legal threats from Atari, now based in New York.
Atari requested to have the court dispute dismissed or moved to the United States, however, Superior Court Judge Harvey Spiegel refused the request.
I can kind of see where Atari is coming from with Meteor Crusher, however, BrickBreaker, although is in the same genre as Breakout, the game really is different.

We all know that the BlackBerry is kicking the collective butts of all the Windows Mobile devices out there, however, Research in Motion could at least pick up the phone the few times that Microsoft calls to find out why BlackBerry Desktop crashes once in a blue moon. [/sarcasm]
