TheBirthdayApp reminds you of the birthdays of your friends and family days in advance (user programmable). It's a function missing from almost-perfect BlackBerry calendar application. The simple user interface allows you to select how many days in advance and what time of the day you would like to get notified of the birthday of your contact. Like all our other applications, it does NOT run on background. It only turns itself on to inform you of the birthday. This means your battery is completely safe!

Special thanks to Carole for letting us know that Windows Live Messenger had been updated. Usually when one Instant Messenger client gets updated they all get an update. I checked via the OTA site and sure enough all of the main Instant Messaging Clients have been updated to version 2.5.69. This update does not appear to be available via BlackBerry App World yet, but you can use the link below via your BlackBerry Device and download via OTA.
No Changlog that I can see and my gtalk seems to look the same. If you notice anything new, please leave a comment about what you found.

Fabian has created many cool apps and you can add another one to the list with SecondTab.
Details: For those using OS 5.0 or higher you can now have another Tab in your Internet Browser. Perfect for BlackBerry devices which don’t have tabbed browsing!
To use the App go to your Browser and simply click the Menu ‘Open second Tab’ – it then opens up another Browser Screen. You can switch back and forth from the two Browsers by holding the Menu Key. Very easy to use and best of all: free!

I have been a dropbox user for quite some time and use dropbox daily from my BlackBerry device. This public release has been updated to version 1.0.34. You can see a small demo video Here. If you do not have a dropbox account, try it out and I bet you find it useful.
Fixes:
• saving non-ascii texts results in garbled text
• handling of edge cases when running out of space on sd card and in device memory
• open-edit-upload usecase wasn’t working for devices with encryption enabled
• share link freezes for some users
• open-edit-upload usecase fails for files with non-ascii filenames
• "would you like to allow logging" dialog shouldn’t appear on first launch
• on rotatable devices, in image gallery, the displayed/cached image is smaller than screen size (shouldn’t happen)
• app should ask for permissions in advance on first launch
• app should support multiple third-party app associations for a given file type (e.g multiple pdf viewers)
• music/video stops when screen fades out
• user gets a "not enough room to write file" message when trying to open a file that’s already open in docs2go

Car and Driver, the world’s largest automotive enthusiast publication, today announced the launch ofTxt U L8r, a free mobile application for handheld devices created to combat the dangers of texting while driving. Sponsored by the Chrysler Brand and developed by iSpeech®, Txt U L8r automatically responds to text messages without forcing drivers to take their eyes off the road or their hands off the wheel.
How Txt U L8r works:
- When TXT U L8r is running on a driver’s handheld device, the application sends a predetermined message back to the sender with an alert that the user is unavailable.
- At the same time, the received message is read aloud to the driver, ensuring he or she doesn’t miss an urgent message.
- A paid upgrade of the application is available allowing the driver to respond back to messages with voice commands.
Of all the distractions motorists face behind the wheel of a modern vehicle, Car and Driver believes that texting is the most dangerous. In 2009, Car and Driver devised a test to compare drivers’ reaction times texting and drunk. The result? Drivers who were texting took far longer to respond than those who were legally drunk.
To combat the dangers of texting while driving, Car and Driver brings you the Txt U L8r mobile app. The application automatically responds to emails and texts so drivers can keep their eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel. In short, the Txt U L8r app allows drivers to focus on driving, not the latest incoming message.
