I'm new to BB and am just learning what all is available for it. I'd appreciate feedback on what you consider your favorite add-ons to get the most out of your BB. I know it depends upon personal interest, but are there utilities, etc. that you find indispensable?

Thanks!

I can't live without:

BBWeather
Google Maps
Wap.BlackBerryForums launcher icon
Facebook (guilty pleasure, I know)

I also have:
JiveTalk (multi IM application - not free)
Windows Live Search
BlackBerryNews launcher icon

JiveTalk - If you need IM access across many platforms.

WeatherBug Direct - Free, convienent, and has alerts for severe weather.

CB Launcher - A Must.

Viigo - I wanna stay current on many things.

Opera Mini - I only use this to download files to my media Card (Documents, CB Podcasts , etc.)

Others programs I have:

Texas Hold'Em Kings 3 - I'm a big poker fan.

Ascendo Data Vault - Very easy to use and a life saver lol.

BBForums and BBFAQ - Shortcuts.

Cram - Just study when I need to.

And I got the bPhone and Vista themes, but I just have a thing for the BB Dimension L theme.

That's just what I use.. Whatever makes my life easier

Watch out for Viigo. Has been pretty unreliable lately!

Viigo or Project Tango?

I've been using regular old Viigo and I haven't had any problems with it, project tango on the other hand I haven't tried yet.

I tried Tango yesterday; 2-hours later I uninstalled it. My BB was in Viigo hour-glass mode the entire time - very frustrating. For me, Google Reader - with its faults - handles a long feed list better and it updates faster. Granted, it is slower for reading and there is no email-the-post feature. 2 things I wish Viigo had: on-line reader and ability to export feeds in an opml file.

[SteveO86]

That wouldn't be a bad option.. Of course I just add RSS feeds to Viigo so I see stuff on the go, if I am infront of my computer I usually just go the websites themselves and read the "full" article there, but we all have different needs .

Thanks for all the feedback, folks! I, also, live in FL, so Weatherbug will likely be one of my first add-ons. Right now I am just trying to get comfortable with what came with my 8330. I did upgrade to 4.5.0.77, however, about 2 hrs after I got it!

My personal list (amongst others) located at LIST: Latest Versions of 3rd Party Software (Mini Version Tracker) is a good place to start. As with all CrackBerry Addicts, I have reviewed, commented and tried numerous apps and have listed what I feel are best-of-breed apps for overall mobile utility.
