Take screenshots from your Blackberry device with this handy little tool that lets you grab screen images and save them in a variety of image formats.
Save Images
Available from www.oppitonic.net, BBScreenShooter is a PC-based application that utilises the desktop manager connection with your Blackberry and sends the image to your desktop, allowing you to save images for use later, perhaps for use in a tutorial or a review.
Tools such as this are very useful for all manner of purposes, but the most important thing to note is that BBCScreenShooter is both very good and free to download and use. It has a range of useful options, security code for use and even an update procedure that checks for new versions of the tool.
Download and Install
Via this link to www.oppitonic.net, follow the download link to get a copy of the application. The application is a PC-based .EXE file, and doesn’t require installing – simply save this file to the location you wish to run it from, and consider perhaps sending a shortcut to your desktop (right click the bbscreenshooter.exe file, and select Send To > Desktop (Create Shortcut) on the menu) for ease of use.
Note that you must have both a copy of JavaLoader.exe and Blackberry Desktop Manager installed and running on your PC before you can use BBScreenShooter.
Your Blackberry must be running v4.0.2 or higher to use this tool.

BuzzMe Pro has two (2) "disco" modes to have a flashing disco in your Blackberry when you receive a call, SMS/MMS, or Blackberry email
you can get support from right within the application with integrated support.
On the Blackberry Storm, BuzzMe Pro includes Facedown Mode.
Facedown mode used the accelerometer in the Storm to let you set your Storm "Facedown" on a table or other flat surface and have the vibration of BuzzMe turned off automatically. A great feature for meetings and for the bed side table at night.

Best known in the BlackBerry enterprise game for their Mobile Documents solution, the crew over at WICKSoft have just released a super-handy utility for the BlackBerry. WICKSoft LinkWorks isn't an app that you "open and use" per say, rather it is one that you install and reap the benefits of for thousands upon thousands of emails to come... Have you ever received an email with a link that you just couldn't open? Clicking the link doesn't work, and copying the link in to the browser won't work either. Now there is a solution. WICKSoft LinkWorks enhances the URL detection on your BlackBerry so that you can open all links, even those with spaces, from your BlackBerry. This is ideal (and a must have!) for people who use SharePoint, or who receive messages with links that won't open properly from the BlackBerry. WICKSoft LinkWorks Features:

Feel it when calls connect or disconnect, and when participants join or leave a conference call.
BerryVibe adds a category "Connect-Disconnect Feel" to Options, where you can select the strength of the vibrations (all are brief pulses, slightly longer on disconnect than on connect, or vice versa), and which events should make vibrations.
Connect-disconnect confirmation is useful in case you thought you hung up but the call didn't disconnect, or if the phone wasn't locked and called someone who could then hear your conversation from inside your pocket. With BerryVibe, if a call gets dialed by accident the phone vibrates, and when you try to hang up you know if it didn't disconnect.
This app is so small that it takes almost no space (less than 6k).
** Don't be surprised when there is no icon, there's just the new category "Connect-Disconnect Feel" in Options, where you can configure and enable or disable the app.
** There is no impact on the phone's responsiveness and no significant impact on memory or storage space.
