BlackBerry Style Oxford Coming Exclusively To Sprint October 31st
Word on the street is that the BlackBerry clamshell, a.k.a. the BlackBerry Style , ughum, we mean the BlackBerry Oxford will be officially released exclusively on Sprint October 31st
Off the glowing recommendation of RIMarkable Robb, I decided to install the evaluation version of Xobni . If you look at just about any top 10 BlackBerry application list , Xobni, in many cases, ranks close to the top. I am, actually, kind of shocked by this considering that, although, I see some value in Xobni, there are glaring areas where the app fails miserably. I know that Xobni is one of those applications where the value is a bit more subtle and you need to use it a few times before you really realize it’s power, however, that being said, there are areas, in my opinion, where Xobni simply doesn’t work and is unreliable. Where Xobni Disappointed Adding Incorrect Numbers to Contacts Xobni collects contact information from a variety sources and publishes it to your Xobni contact list

Verizon Wireless will have ‘interactive launch’ of BlackBerry 6 on October 14
Hey, what do we have here? One of our Verizon sources was kind enough to send us this piece of intel regarding Verizon Wireless and BlackBerry 6. It looks like the company plans of having an “interactive launch” of the BlackBerry 6 operating system on Thursday, October 14. The word interactive makes us think that the actual software bits may not be available, however, at minimum, this indicates a BB6 launch is right around the corner. We’ll keep digging and report what we find
The line between phones and computers becomes more blurred with every few months of technology that passes. The original move was the release of the iPhone , and the subsequent smartphone releases that followed. These handsets featured call, mobile email and text capabilities, cameras as per previous phone models, and increased usability such as word processors, applications, and a touchscreen. Connection ports were added so that phones no longer served solely as contact devices, but could be hooked up to other systems and used for entertainment purposes. After a few generations of the smartphone, and in a different part of the technology family, the popularity of the netbook laptop, Apple had a groundbreaking idea to merge the two into a new form of technology – the tablet computer.
Remember last week, when we talked about Verizon canceling the Storm 2 refresh? We’ve got an update on it, and it’s not good for fans of the Storm line, especially those who are on other carriers. Also, the discussion heads in the direction of the ideal BlackBerry, which we saw conceptualized this week.

UAE and RIM resolve differences, BlackBerry service to continue after October 11
Reuters is reporting that the United Arab Emirates and BlackBarry manufacturer Research In Motion have resolved differences that could have potentially left 500,000 BlackBerry subscribers without data services after October 11. “The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority has confirmed that Blackberry services are now compliant with the UAE’s telecommunications regulatory framework,” reported WAM, a state run news agency. “All Blackberry services in the UAE will continue to operate as normal and no suspension of service will occur on October 11, 2010,” the news outlet continued. The UAE had threatened to shutter BlackBerry data services due to their inability to access RIM servers through legal means if necessary; BlackBerry data was handled by servers outside of the UAE which created a security and sovereignty nightmare for the Arab state.
