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. GoodFoodNearYou — GoodFoodNearYou helps you find the best food options at twenty restaurants near you.

According to an IDC report , the BlackBerry Curve, once again takes the number 1 spot for the most sold smartphone in the United States. Not only is the the BlackBerry Curve king of the hill, 4 other BlackBerry devices round out the top 10. That being said, I have to call BS on these numbers. For some strange reason IDC decided to lump all of various BlackBerry Curve models into one big group. When they say that the BlackBerry Curve is the number one selling smartphone in America what they really mean is the BlackBerry Curve 8300, 8900, and 8500 series devices were number 1. I don’t have any particular issues with how IDC does their math expect for the fact that IDC didn’t lump the iPhone 3G S, which came in second place, and the iPhone 3G, which came in fourth place, together
