KBLauncher is an application launcher and switcher. It lets you very quickly run any of your dozens of commands by typing the beginning of its name. In short, it is a command line for your BlackBerry.

Like many BlackBerry users, you are good at typing. Your keyboard kung fu leaves onlookers in awe. Your fingers are a blur of motion. But when it’s time run one of your many great apps on your BlackBerry, you have to scroll painfully through countless icons with your trackball. You know exactly what you want: why do you have to waste all this time? Now you don’t. Just configure one of your convenience keys to start KBLauncher, and your apps will always be just a few keystrokes away.

Behind the deceptively simple user interface is a sophisticated application detection engine. With no effort on your part, KBLauncher will detect both installed and running applications on your phone. You can seamlessly run installed applications, switch to running applications or execute special commands by typing the first few letters (or even one letter) of the command. When your command is up, just hit Enter. KBLauncher will adapt to your usage pattern and offer your most recently used commands first.

I encourage you to take advantage of the 7 day FREE trial to see if KBLauncher is for you. You may never look at your icons list the same way again.

Before I installed this on my Storm 9530, I was having slowness issues, and having to pull battery at least once a day, so I thought this app would be perfect. I purchased it, installed it, and within 2 hours I removed it from my phone. It kept my app memory at a constant 0kb, caused numerous hour glasses freezes, and drained my battery from half to almost dead within that 2 hours of installing it. I’m glad it’s working for other people, but this didn’t work for me in the least.

If there was one must-have app that we had to recommend to all Blackberry users, it would probably be MeterBerry. It replaces multiple applications with one, and does it better! In a nutshell it helps you manage your Blackberry battery, memory and device much more effectively.

MeterBerry was also received the accolade of being a Crackberry Best Utility App of 2009 Nominee!

Features of MeterBerry:

• Auto-refreshing status screen displays battery, memory, and device info and statistics.
• Calculates average battery discharge rate over time.
• Discharge rate is resettable, allowing you to detect a failing battery, or to determine how operating system updates or third party applications affect battery usage.
• Discharge rate resets automatically upon application installation and when the phone is charged.
• Calculates change in free application memory since the device was last started, allowing you to detect memory leaks.
• Customizable, dynamic home screen icon shows battery level, battery temperature, free memory, change in free memory since startup, or uptime since the phone was last restarted.
• Choose a single icon or rotate between multiple icons at a selectable rate.
• Icons change color to indicate status.
• Customize at what levels icons change color to suit your specific needs.
• Customizable battery and memory notifications. Be notified when your battery or memory drops below a threshold you specify, even when MeterBerry isn’t open.
• Reset your device when memory drops below a threshold you specify.
• Logs battery level, free memory, signal strength, and temperature over time. Track down applications that are causing excessive battery usage or memory leaks. Find areas or times of the day where your signal strength drops. Determine if your phone is overheating.
• Add personalized notes to the logs to help track changes to your phone.
• Initiate a soft-reset (battery pull) on-demand or schedule one daily at a specific time to free up memory and resources.
