Speets (specs, deets) on cases for older BlackBerry, RIM models

Federico Fiochhini is marketing manager of Vaja, a manufacturer of high-end leather accessories for BlackBerrys and other gadgets.

He'd like me, to um, get on the cases.

OK, I can do this!

First glance shows the Vaja BlackBerry cases especially configurable for older builds-including some pre-BlackBerry RIMs.

That's an RI11 at top. Starts at $74.90. 2 Credit Card Slots, Escape & Scroll access, One Touch Belt Clip, 3-1/8" x 4-6/8" x 1-1/8" inches  

Speets say it fits some very older models such as the RIM 857 - 957 - BlackBerry 5800 series.

Letting your BlackBerry go to your head

BlackBerry headsetI've been spending some quality time looking for bargains on the relatively new BlackBerry Accessories Store.

As one who is big on headsets for all my mobile devices, I was curious to see what was being offered. Curiously, there's only one headset - a lightweight $13.99 branded BlackBerry Headset with a miniature clip that keeps the cord in place.

If you've ever dangled headphone cords, you'll want such a clip.

Much more important, this Headset works with just about every BlackBerry on the market.

Find your way around the subway with PocketMetro 2.1

PocketMetro 2.1Taking a subway ride in New York, London, Paris or Berlin?

You might want to try out ClockLabs' brand new PocketMetro 2.1. It has a built-in mapping function and trip-time calculator for the subway system in each of these cities.

The coolest thing about PocketMetro: when you install it on your BlackBerry, its entire database for the city you purchase "lives" on your device. That way, you don't have to hope for a signal before you access the function. That in-device capability is especially welcome considering that acquiring a wireless signal can be somewhat problematic in the subway.

PocketMetro 2.1 is compatible with most BlackBerry models. It costs $19.99 per city, and is available via download right here.
