Hello everyone! I haven't been active on here in over a year, since I gave up my BB and bought an iPhone in Dec of '07...but every single day I get requests through my web site (where the
current version of bPhone lives) to do newer versions of my bPhone theme for the Bold and Storm, so this week I finally sat down to do it. Well, the Bold version anyway...still don't see a way to do one for the Storm yet.
For those who aren't familiar, bPhone is a popular free iPhone theme for the BlackBerry that I released in September of 2007. It has been downloaded nearly 1 million times,
featured on CNet's Download.com, blogged about on hundreds of sites, and even earned me a call from RIM's lawyers last year.
It is available for the 8700, 8300 (Curve), 8100 (Pearl), and 8800 series BlackBerries,
Anyway, I'm looking for a handful of Bold owners who would be willing to test the bPhone build for the BlackBerry 9000 aka Bold. I still have a number of custom icons to make (so time consuming!), but the main pieces are in place.
UPDATE: Thank you everyone, I have already received a number of offers. I'll be contacting those people soon. No more testers needed at this time.
I need people who are:
1. Willing to provide constructive, critical feedback;
2. Are at least somewhat familiar with the limitations of BlackBerry themes, so I don't get a bunch of requests for things I can't do;
3. Can correspond quickly via email (hopefully you can, since you have BlackBerry
) and will test out subsequent betas.
If you are interested, please contact me via PM with your email address.
Obviously, I don't have a Bold (or a BlackBerry of any kind, for that matter), so I will be relying on you to make sure the in-hand experience of the theme is positive. The simulator can only show me so much.
This theme will remain free (with donations
greatly appreciated). I hope to have it completed within a week or two.
