Hey Paul,

Did you notice the title says FREE downloads? Dumbass!!
Before you put someone else down and add your own selections that you think are better, read the title.

Why do you have Beyond411 and Google Maps. Google maps does a better job of location based searches. I hate it when the ugly program Berry411 is on people’s list.

Viigo is also over hyped. Have you seen google reader? It leaves no foot print and works great.

Lastly Opera Mini is a hog for memory and the blackberry browser is way better. i.e. form input. See for yourself.

your list sucks.

Here is mine.

-Google Maps - We agree here
-Google Mobile Updater - Keeps your non-essential google apps updated including Google Maps.
-Google Reader - Launches google reader web site. Then click Tags and browse your Reader Catagories…. Viigo currently doesn’t allow browsing catagories
-Berry Locator - Cause I never want to have to use it but don’t want to regret not having it
-Bankarama - Who knew all these blackberry games could add up to so much. This little program is on my quick key so everytime I make a purchase it takes a sec to record and I have my balance with me. OCD People rejoice

I wish Opera Mini would support playing YouTube Mobile. The BlackBerry browser on my 8130 (Pearl) does a great job but when I’m in Opera (and I use it a lot) I find myself trying to visit YouTube and it doesn’t work.

I blog a lot about my mobile adventures and this topic has me burned. I’m on the latest 4.1 Beta as I type this and no flash makes me question just how powerful Opera Mini is…

Coming from a PocketPC and a Treo, I find Windows Live Search for BlackBerry better than all those 411 apps. Just my opinion though but WLS loads 3x faster than any Windows Mobile device sporting the same version. Why does BlackBerry get the faster load when WM lags behind? Come on, Bill… You know you use BlackBerry!

Why have Beyond 411 along with GMM. What about Windows Live Search too. All of them find alot of places and POI’s. Beyond 411 goes farther with it’s plug in’s but you need to use them.
