FlyCast is an application that brings free internet radio to your Blackberry Storm. Flycast brings radio stations from all over the world right into your Blackberry Storm, you can listen to pretty much everything. It is totally free and works 100% with the Storm, the bad thing is that works in compatibility mode and is hard to get used to. You have to imagine that the upper part of the screen works like the trackball  on older Blackberries and you are good to go. Is very sensible but you will …

I think I found the greatest application for the Storm ever, it is a full GPS navigation system with Voice Guidance and Turn-By-Turn directions. The best part is that is completely FREE and works flawlessly with the  Blackberry Storm, believe me I tried it.  This Apps can use the GPS of the Storm, I thought it was weird because Google Maps for the Storm is unable to use the GPS.
Anyway, you should really give it a try after buying Blackberry Storm. It is available in many languages and the Voice …

I found an awesome video showing a guy who compares the Blackberry Storm vs HTC Touch HD vs T-Mobile G1 vs iPhone 3G. I found it very amusing, it definitively deserves to watch it all. He basically compares this 4 handsets and he chooses a winner at the end, he starts with the camera, I think that comparing the camera is not a fair comparison because obviously the HTC Touch HD with the 5Megapixel camera will beat by far the Storm’s 3.2 Megapixel camera.  Anyway here is the video, share …

Some people like the option of a stylus on their touch screen devices. There are two kinds of touch screens, the capacitive screens and the resistive touch screens. With the resistive touch screens anything will make the screen work, but with the capacitive screens such as the one in the Blackberry Storm only your finger will make it work.
Some people would like to use a stylus with the Storm, so the company inPlay announced they will produce an RF Pen for capacitive screens . It is called WriteSense and will …

The Storm has a 3.2 Megapixel Camera with Auto-Focus and LED Flash. The camera on a phone is very important, and to test the Storm camera I wanted to take pictures of something interesting and then share them with you guys, so then you can also share what you think. Do you think the Storm takes nice  pictures? Or bad pictures?
Today I found nice cars in the shopping mall where I was going. As I had my Storm I took pictures of all of them so now I can share …

I love to watch YouTube videos on the go, and the screen of the Blackberry Storm is perfect to watch them. Since I received my Storm I go to youtube.com and I watch them the mobile youtube site. But I just made a really nice discovery, there is a YouTube client available exclusively for the Storm. It shows the videos faster, with a much nicer interface and with much better quality compared to the blurry videos from the YouTube.com site.
Installing this application is really easy. To install you have to …
