Carbonite mobile app released for BlackBerry

Posted on by

Carbonite

Friday is the perfect day to reveal, in my opinion, a pretty awesome application.  For those of you unfamiliar with Carbonite, it’s basically a paid, online dropbox.  You back up files to Carbonite where you can access them from any computer.  With the Carbonite app, you are able to browse through your files at will, view said files on the go, and send those files via email.  Sadly, Carbonite is a paid annual subscription starting at $54.95 a year with support for both PC and Mac.  On the bright side, the BlackBerry application is free and available on the Pearl Flip, 96xx, 89xx, 83xx, 85xx, 9000, 9700 and Storm.

As a college student, I cannot see myself using this application at all.  On the other hand, for those of you with busy lives or long commutes on the way to work, this could be the perfect app for you.  During the commute (albeit not while driving yourself), you’d be able to jump on and review documents (say a sales report, notes you took on a hearing, or just something to read) without ever downloading them to your BlackBerry.  I guess the whole decision boils down to if you’re willing to spend the money for the subscription.  Will the mobile app benefit you enough to justify the money? If so, click here to learn how to get the beta app on your BlackBerry.

Official: OS 5.0.0.577 upgrade for the 8350i on Telus

8350i users, feel free to rejoice, for today marks the day that you join the rest of the BlackBerry crowd and upgrade to OS 5.0. The 8350i has been the ugly, red-headed step-child of the BlackBerry lineup for the longest time. Its users have been plagued with little to no support, no updates, and overall banishment by the rest of the community, it’s about time they get their long awaited 5.0 update. Unfortunately, 5.0 is only available over Desktop Manager, so no OTA updates.  Also, if you are using anything other than Telus, you are out of luck and you will not be able to update.  As always, remember to backup your device, and feel free to use our How-To guides to help you update. Please comment below with any changes that you notice after updating.  Enjoy the beginning of your week, and you stay classy BBerry pups.
