(Open Beta) SpeedNotes – A fast and convenient note taking application

SpeedNotes by Gray Matter Apps

SpeedNotes began as an app that addressed a need I had personally, I’ve always detested paper and like the idea of using the convenience of my BlackBerry for taking and storing notes of all kinds. MemoPad gets the job done, but always seemed inconvenient in as much as having to create a new empty note and name it each time I wanted to record something. Often, I find myself wanting to record something quickly and then return to whatever I’m doing and be able to come back to it later without a) remembering to save and b) having to leave an application open. Sometimes I would also want to take notes that I didn’t need to keep permanently either.

SpeedNotes addresses this need by providing an instant and persistent note taking environment where immediately upon launching the app you are presented with a note area, ready for typing into. SpeedNotes takes care of ensuring your notes are saved to your BB’s storage as you are working on them and loading the current note into the note area as soon as SpeedNotes is launched. Effectively, you can launch SpeedNotes, enter some information, then just press ESC to close the application. Later, you can launch SpeedNotes again and your note will be automatically loaded back into the application. – Via Russell

When your note is complete, you have several choices:

– Clear the note and start again.
– Save the note to a MemoPad memo.
– Send the note to an email or PIN message recipient.
– Copy the note to your BlackBerry’s clipboard.

You can download SpeedNotes OTA 0.2.2 beta OTA at the below link:

Back in OS 5 it used to be able to send screenshots over BBM but that was unavailable in OS 6. Now thanks to the new BBM Social Platform you can once again send screenshots to BBM contacts.

New Features include:

 

  • Added integration with BBM 6 for send the capture to BBM Contacts
  • Added new feature for Edit the Capture
  • Fixed the blurry in some water marks
  • Added new feature for Get the License from the Menu in the Register Screen

BlackBerry Messenger v6.0.0.129 Brings Back “What I Am Listening To” and Bug Fixes

BBM Update

RIM just made a huge update to BBM a bit back bringing it to v6.0.0.125 and now we have a subsequent bug fix edition released this weekend bumping us up to v6.0.0.129. This is a small update but it still requires the full 4.3MB download. From what we have heard from readers it brings back the “Show What I am Listening To” feature in the options along with bug fixes.

You can pick up BBM 6.0.0.129 in App World

Thanks Tom, Gokulesh, Tashanna, and everyone else who sent this in!

BestBuy Canada Taking Pre-Orders for the Blackberry Bold 9900

The BB7 fan night is all done, and the hands on videos have been played over and over again, so it is only fitting that you can pre-order the BlackBerry 9900 from Best Buy starting now!  Now before everyone south of the border rushes out, as it states in the title this is for Canadian Best Buy locations only.  As with any Best Buy pre-order you will have to leave a deposit of $50, however that does guarantee you a device as soon as it is available.  I have previously gone this route  with Best Buy and I have found that they will only let you actually pay for the device is you are attaching it to a new or renewed contract.  So if you are planning on buying the device outright I would ask what their policy is on the 9900 before dropping the $50.
