Blackberry Beta Zone

May 15th, 2012No Comments

If you are not a member of Blackberry Beta Zone then many times you’d wonder when you see news/tweets about an application being available in Beta Zone.

Just thought of listing some pros and cons of having access on Blackberry Beta Zone.

Pros:

  • Having access to latest app versions
  • Platform to provide your feedback
  • Possibility of accessing apps before it even hits app world for the mass
  • Build good Karma by doing good for community ;)

Cons:

  • Unreleased apps may contain bugs
  • Buggy apps can cause Blackberry performance issues (Rare cases)

 

So if you are a kind of person who likes testing new apps, even if there is a threat of causing issues with your Blackberry, having an account at Beta Zone is a must.

 


Review: App Stalker [Apps]

If you have used an Android device, I am sure you must have heard of a brilliant app discovery software called AppBrain. One of the best features of AppBrain was to track the apps’ costs and inform you with the apps with highest price drops.

Well, App Stalker is an application for Blackberry phones that does exactly the same. It keeps a constant eye on all the apps on the Blackberry App World and pushes an update to you every time it finds apps whose prices have dramatically dropped or, better yet, are now available for free.

Here are a few screenshots of the application, and the download link is below the fold.
