The focus of this conference will showcase building on the success of application and gaming for mobile platforms, Anders Jeppsson, Global Head of Gaming for BlackBerry, will be in attendance with a session entitled ‘BlackBerry is Back!’

“Three years ago BlackBerry raised its gaze towards the horizon and started building the future of mobile computing. After key acquisitions such as QNX, Torch Mobile, The Astonishing Tribe and Scoreloop, and after having spoken with countless app, game and middleware developers, a completely redesigned and rewritten platform, BlackBerry 10 was launched in January 2013.
With deep social integration, a state of the art high performance OS and the easiest and most developer friendly API’s, BlackBerry 10 delivers what every game developer could ask from a next generation platform. Open source, open standards, best in the industry developer support, app security, app payment options and a quick and easy app approval process. Simply put, the developers and their apps in focus!”

One issue that has plagued PlayBook owners is the absence of bookmarks in the browser.   There hasn’t been any options available to help store the bookmarks on the PlayBook until now.  SiteBook is a new app available that does just that. 

SiteBook allows you to create and organize your website bookmarks, notes and tasks:

- Add items as websites, notes or tasks
- Tap a website item to open it in the Browser
- Launch SiteBook immediately before or after launching your Browser, and it will always be just a single swipe away while browsing the web
- Create custom categories to organize your items
- Filter your items by category
- Export your items as text files
- Backup and restore your data from an external file

The application was designed by Kate Swasing and is available in App World for Free.

Gameloft has brought a slew of their BlackBerry 10 game titles over to the BlackBerry PlayBook today.  It was great to see that Gameloft was dedicated to bringing these top games to the new operating system, and I am sure that PlayBook owners are happy to see that they have not been forgotten.

The titles that Gameloft has brought to the PlayBook include Asphalt 7: Heat, N.O.V.A. 3, Shark Dash, Ice Age Village and Let’s Golf 3. Many of these games will play even better on a larger screen so make sure you get into BlackBerry World and download them on your PlayBook as soon as possible.

With the PlayBook eventually being updated to BlackBerry 10, it will be interesting to see how developers that are solely making games for the PlayBook currently cope with the change.  In the meantime hit up those links below to get some awesome games on your tablet.

Download Asphalt 7: Heat for BlackBerry PlayBook
Download N.O.V.A. 3 for BlackBerry PlayBook
Download Shark Dash for BlackBerry PlayBook
Download Ice Age Village for BlackBerry PlayBook

Bumblebee Computing has released Think-4-U Music Player for the BlackBerry PlayBook. I have been using Think-4-U Music Player for a few days and I am truly blown away at all of the features this application has! The number one feature I adore has to be the ability to learn from your listening habits. Basically, the application builds an adaptive playlist customized to your liking this is called Think Mode.

Think-4-U Music for the BlackBerry PlayBook offers all kinds of great features from the Think Mode to the Gesture-enabled UI! The Gesture-enabled UI let’s you use gestures to navigate through your music with ease: swipe left for next song; swipe right for previous; quickly scroll through list of your music library using a velocity sensitive flick gesture; single tap on viewing area to toggle play/pause.

Playlists:

  • Create unlimited custom playlists with ease using a drag-and-drop interface
  • Create playlist directly from a folder
  • Quickly add songs to “My Favorites” playlist with one tap
  • Create a dynamic playlist based on the search results
  • Recognizes and plays .m3u playlists created from programs like iTunes

Think-4-U Music for the BlackBerry PlayBook supports the following formats mp3, wma, wav, m4a, and aac. You your MP3′s have lyrics enabled, it will show them in the application as the song is playing. Album artwork will be present if it is available, if not it will pull Flickr’s interesting image of the day.

Think-4-U Music also lets you do an “Instant global search”  this provides you the ability to quickly search for the songs you are looking for across artist, song title, and album name. Use the results as a dynamic playlist!, “Auto-resume” automatically resume the song you were playing in the playlist, “Sleep-timer” fall asleep to your favorite songs and have player turn off at the interval of your choosing.

Movie formats are also supported on the PlayBook including mp4, mov, m4v, and so on.

Head on over to BlackBerry World to pick up Think-4-U Music for the BlackBerry PlayBook for only $.99 (it is on sale)
