Video: BlackBerry PlayBook booting up with BlackBerry 10

@sleepy2009 — Fri, 24 May 2013 13:35:26 +0000

Just this morning we told you how BlackBerry Mexico posted a Tweet saying that we should see BlackBerry 10 on the BlackBerry PlayBook in a few weeks, well MFaroTusino on YouTube is hard at work trying to make it happen.
As you will see in the above video the PlayBook will boot and is currently using the BlackBerry 10 boot scrren and that is about it. Here is what the developer had to say: “Some progress with BB10 on the Playbook. The device boots, but nothing more..for now. I believe I can fix that, as I haven’t completed the procedure that I planned put in my head, so lets pray ”

BlackBerry 10 coming to the PlayBook in the “Next Few Weeks”?

@sleepy2009 — Fri, 24 May 2013 13:05:07 +0000

While at BlackBerry Live there was much discussion on weather or not we would see some sort of BlackBerry 10 goodness on the BlackBerry PlayBook, well as we all know by now we did not… This lead us all to speculate we would never see it.

A recent Tweet from BlackBerry Mexico has gotten our hopes up again! the Tweet is as follows: @BlackBerry_MEX: “Hello. In the next few weeks will be available OS10 update w/the #PlayBook ! Please be alert!”

It appears that the tweet has since been removed , so that just lets us speculate even more. What do you think? Is the PlayBook going to OS 10 or is it just a pipe dream? Let us know what you think in the comments.

Word Soup for BlackBerry 10 updated – Adds FREE version

@sleepy2009 — Wed, 22 May 2013 13:39:18 +0000

Word Soup for BlackBerry 10 and BlackBerry PlayBook has been updated to version 1.4. This update brings a FREE version of Word Soup as well. Word Soup is a word-creation game with a tactical twist. Create words within the grid of scrambled letters. Each word created is removed from the grid and the letters above fall into the gaps. By tilting your device, you can slide the tiles left or right, creating new word combinations.

With careful play, letters can be strategically brought into play and used to create longer words. You score bonus points if you successfully clear the grid of all letters. The starting grid is randomly generated, so no two games should ever be the same.

Local highscore tables track Longest Words, Best Words, Highest Scores and more. Word Soup Free also features Scoreloop Leaderboards for a global challenge.

If you like word games, you’ll love Word Soup Free!

Fast Browser for BlackBerry PlayBook

@MrBrennen — Wed, 08 May 2013 03:21:42 +0000

Many of our readers are looking for ways to improve their experience when it comes to using their BlackBerry products. One thing that I look for as a user is ways to improve the speed on the devices that I use. I have given up hope on speeding up my 9650 but I still look for ways to improve speed on my PlayBook. One thing that people have constantly complained about on the PlayBook is the rendering speed when it comes to browsing online. Fast Browser by BumbleBee Computing does just that. The app is designed to speed up the loading of pages as well as give users plenty of added features that are not readily available with the native browser that is offered by BlackBerry. It is built using the native engine but makes various improvements to the end user experience.

The features of Fast Browser are as follows:

Fast Mode
-A fast mode (blue lightning icon) is provided as default that optimizes for speed when dealing with web pages that are text and image and don’t require the full web engine rendering capabilities. For pages that need it, tap once on blue lightning icon to toggle to full mode.

Powerful Tabs
-Launch up-to 6 simultaneous web sessions similar to what you can do using a desktop browser with the built-in tab support. Each of the web sessions are live and run in parallel leveraging the powerful multi-tasking capabilites of the BlackBerry® PlayBook™.
-Use a tab to play YouTube music in the background, another to browse the latest news, another to look at real-time updates of stock prices, and yet other to read your favorite RSS feeds.
-Switching between tabs is instantaneous and easy to do. Just tap on the tab you want in the icon list of tabs at the bottom of the screen. Adding and removing tabs is just as easy.

Full-screen mode
-Remove all the browser navigation controls so that you can have the full screen to view your web pages. Simply top-bezel swipe to enter into full-screen and do the same to go back to normal mode.

In-page instant search
-Search within the web page by typing on the URL bar. As you type, all matches on the page are highlighted.

Quick access google search
-Quickly access the google search engine by typing on the URL bar and hitting enter. Fast Browser will auto-detect if it is a search term or a URL and will take the appropriate action.

Optimized for easy-of-use
-Fast Browser keeps track of your most visited websites and presents the top 25 in a scroll list of thumbnails that you can quickly select when you start a new tab.

Favorites Bookmarks
-Add an unlimited amount of bookmarks by selecting the favorite button. A scroll list of thumbnails of your favorite websites is presented when you start a new tab.

There are some great things that this app does but there are some areas that need some improvement as well. The developer is very in touch with the users and welcomes comments and requests.

There are some improvements that the Developer is planning on in the near future as well as frequent updates to Fast Browser.

If you are interested in Fast Browser you can purchase it in App World for $0.99.
