True story…  A friend of mine in town on business just sent me a PIN message asking if I knew of any good places to get something for lunch near the office building he is in downtown.  I haven’t worked downtown for 10 years so I told him to tell me what he was in the mood for and I would look something up.  He said that is what he was going to do but he was already on the street and didn’t have his laptop. h To make a long story short, I told him that there are like a gazillion (a few dozen or more) BlackBerry applications designed to do exactly what he was asking me to do.  Here is a list of 10 of them that you absolutely can’t beat the price.

You can download Foursquare for BlackBerry by visiting http://foursquare.com/blackberry/beta from your devices BlackBerry Browser.

Check this out! @BBMChat tweeted this picture of what appears to be a BlackBerry 9990 running BlackBerry OS 5.7.0.151 . We think that the 9990 may be a touchscreen BlackBerry with a full QWERTY keyboard, however, this is the first time we’ve seen anything about a BlackBerry OS version that high other than BlackBerry OS 6 which is rumored not to come out until next year. Let the speculation commence… What’s This?

Is is just me, or, have you noticed as well that since the Facebook update, Facebook for BlackBerry isn’t working properly?  For me Facebook for BlackBerry seems even slower than usual and Status Update Streams aren’t available.
