Finally RIM and Vodafone India has launched their much awaited touchscreen based smart phone in India @ Rs. 27,990/- (never expected this price after seeing their hefty price tag of Rs. 35,000/- for the much buggy handset Bold).

“The market for smartphones in India is at a very nascent stage and growing rapidly. ‘Blackberry Storm’ takes the 3G experience a step forward,” Vodafone Essar Director Marketing and New Business Harit Nagpal told PTI.

Aerize Card Loader 2008 – SD card install utility

If, you are a power blackberry user then I am sure you must have many blackberry applications on your handset and plenty more are there which you want to install but due to memory constraint on blackberry you can’t. Here I have found an utility which will allow you to install applications on memory card instead of device memory.

Get the most out of your BlackBerry device by installing limitless applications from removable media cards – the size of your SD Card is all that is left to worry about. This user-friendly app will install and remove applications on your device from any removable media card. Running applications, storing files, and managing the system all use the same memory on BlackBerry devices. Unfortunately this limits the amount of games and applications that can reliably be loaded onto the device at one time. After you have installed Aerize Card Loader, this limit will be forever shattered, allowing you to load applications and games directly from an SD Card.

Features include:

  • Install and run applications from an SD card
  • Run games and software only when needed
  • Enhance your BlackBerry’s performance
