  • Specials – loads of discounted priced apps in every category
  • Top Apps – browse the most popular free and paid apps
  • Category Browsing – browse the catalog by category and subcategories to quickly find what you’re looking for
  • Detailed application descriptions – Product detail includes star ratings and user reviews. Add your own ratings and reviews
  • Growing catalog of apps – new apps are being added every day
  • Automatic device detection – ensures that the apps that appear are compatible with particular BlackBerry phone
  • Easy download and installation – OTA delivery right to your BlackBerry phone
  • Account history – Access to your MobiHand account with complete purchase history. Makes it easy to re-download previously purchased applications
  • Optimized checkout – Once you are registered, just login then purchase with a few clicks

    I thought that creating an app. store to compete with RIM’s offering was a waste of time, but RIM pricing apps at 2.99 will actually encourage competition with other stores where simple apps will be .99 or less..

    I am not sure why they didn’t just do exactly what Apple has done, it makes no sense to me whatsoever.

    The first thing that I thought when I heard about App Worlds’s pricing structure was that RIM opened the door up for competing app stores to undercut them on them on price.

    Interesting that Mobihand releases their App Store application on the same day as Crackberry.

    I think that everyone is probably trying to capitalize on all the buzz surrounding the launch of App World.

    Looks like they’re (Crackberry & Mobihand) the same app, actually. LOL. Installing one uninstalls the other, same version #’s, etc.

    Ah, that’s why. According to the app, it’s the “Crackberry App Store, powered by MobiHand”

    I am still not impressed with this store. Why cant anyone get it together and sell apps for less than $2.99?!?! I was able to find one site that does this at Blackberry Storm Apps. Good luck and let me know what else you find!

    I’ll tell you why Michael, it’s because we own BlackBerries that we can be over-charged. Because we must all be CEO’s or something and have all kinds of money.
