The BlackBerry App World has been among us for the better part of three weeks now, and the 25 million or so ‘Berry users have had a go at it. Now everyone waited for and has loved on the App World, but after a few days of getting over the initial infatuation, all BlackBerry users came to an annoying realization; their BlackBerry is sourly short on the memory needed to run apps. Add to this the fact that every ‘Berry since the BlackBerry Pearl 8100 has had memory leaks and you have got one pain in the neck. It doesn’t mean that your BlackBerry will cave the moment you run an app on it, but as compared to other smartphones in the market, it doesn’t handle as much app action. In other words, the more contacts, phone logs, saved messages and of course installed applications a user has on his or her BlackBerry, the less free memory the device has to dedicate to new apps.
RIM seriously needs to step out of the Stone Age and put its BlackBerry devices’ application memory on the 512+ MB side of the road. RIM could also put all of BlackBerry users in euphoria by giving them the luxury to install memory cards on their beloved ‘Berry. Also, it would be pure joy to see RIM come out with a new OS. The million year old OS with more updates per week than a baby’s diaper changes is annoying. We get it RIM, it was designed for business, but now that you want the individual user to get jiggy with it, cough up a better (read: new) OS. We love you, but we won’t lie! BlackBerry rocks, App World rocks, the only problem is, they don’t rock together.
