I Have Hundreds Unopened Email, Help Me!
The beauty of Blackberry Storm and its younger brother Odin is filtering a subject or from mail as easy as 1-2-3. What you need to do just tap and hold, in this matter, the subject. After 1 or 2 seconds there is a highlight moving across the subject, next it will display all emails with the related subject. Of course some of you will say, why don't use GMail Plugin if we use GMail. As you may know, GMail plugin will make your email on your Blackberry looks like web-based GMail, which lists in threads.. First, this works on any email on your Blackberry, second GMail Plugin takes too much memory for just a simple features.
After you browse and read some of your emails, what's next. You still have hundreds unopened mails. This what I normally do. This really save you a lot of time.
- tap on the date bar
- press Blackberry menu. Choose Mark Prior Opened
- Click Yes and you are done :)
- If you want to delete all, you simply go to Blackberry menu and choose Delete Prior

Afterwards it will display a list of database with its sizes.

Monitor Your Traffic Usage
If you live in the country where there is quota for your Blackberry Internet Service (BIS), it is sure you need to monitor your traffic and get alert when it reaches near your quota. You can use this free Blackberry application to monitor the download and upload in your handheld.It can show data traffic for daily and monthly. You can set on what date to reset for month summary in the configuration as well as the decimal precision.
When I installed, it asked permission to connect to its server to download a license key but it didn't ask anything about paying the app.
You can download it OTA from http://mda.e-office.com/

Opera Mini 5 Out of Beta
After months in Beta now you can download the stable version of Opera Mini 5, just go to m.opera.com from your phone and give it a try. It comes with a tabbed browsing though I find this to be useful but very heavy in my memory. I experience a bit lagging in my storm. This browser also gives an option to open in Blackberry browser or Opera every time you open a link.
