December 7th, 2009 BBerryNews

Copy2Contact is a simple way to take contact information from emails and store them in your BlackBerry Address Book. In the latest version of the app, you can grab contact and calendar information from SMS, web and search results, and add them directly to your BlackBerry address book and/or calendar. The app will even update existing contacts if a match is found.

The most recent version of Copy2Contact features text recognition that grabs information as a stand-alone client, so you don’t need a wireless signal to grab contacts. Also, since the text recognition can grab info from any source, it can be used in mobile search and directory services like GOOG-411.

Copy2Contact is available on a yearly subscription for $9.95 in the BlackBerry Cool store.

Copy2Contact is also available for $9.99 in App World.

December 7th, 2009 BBerryNews

Gwabbit for BlackBerry

According to BerryReview, the developers of Gwabbit, the application that allows you to automatically extract contact information out emails and create a contacts on your BlackBerry, is coming out with a free version next Tuesday, Dec. 8th.  Gwabbit currently cost $9.99 per year, however, the subscription model has turned off more than just a few would be customers.

They are planning on announcing the new free version of Gwabbit which will annoyingly be released exclusively on App World. The free version includes a new alerting feature that lets contacts know by email when their information has been added to your address book. I just hope it offers you the option to turn that feature off.

If you would like to try the premium version of Gwabbit for BlackBerry out before the free version is released, we have a free trial in the RIMarkable App Store.

Preview of Poynt upcoming gas and weather features

November 12th, 2009 BBerryNews

Poynt is probably the best LBS app for BlackBerry. Currently, the app lets you find local businesses, movies, restaurants, events and people. The app gives you the relevant information you’re looking for, and with driving directions, interactive maps and contact information, Poynt connects you with these places.

In the upcoming version of Poynt (weeks away!), the app will be adding gas and weather functionality. These features are really awesome and we have some pics of the features in action.

The gas feature in Poynt shows you all the surrounding gas stations in your area and what the current price of gas is at that station. This feature is going to be huge for anyone who commutes to work and it will save you a ton of money over time.

The weather feature in Poynt has two components. When you set your location with Poynt, the app’s background will change based on what the weather is like. If it’s snowing, Poynt’s background will be covered in snow and show you what the temperature is. In the pic, we show what Poynt looks like for someone in Anchorage Alaska. If you want more information about the weather, you can click through and get the full weather forecasts and details.

These new features are going to make Poynt, an already killer app, even better.

Poynt is available free in App World.
