Blackberry Application Storefront
Research in Motion had a big year in 2008, releasing smart phone after smart. The devices and the software that runs on them have become sexier-looking more entertainment-oriented; RIM has added an element of fun to a device that's traditionally been a business tool.
RIM is also taking a page from the iPhone playbook by opening up a store for independently developed BlackBerry apps, called the BlackBerry Application Storefront. Current BlackBerry users (and prospective ones) will no doubt be eager to see what those new apps look like; and it's a safe bet that the site where they are displayed and sold will be a popular place on the Web in 2009. However, the Storefront isn't open yet. Keep an eye on the BlackBerry signup page for updates.
