Good news, BlackBerry users! Never again module you requirement to kludge around in your covering meet to take up a sort or watch who’s behindhand the sort that meet called. Following the success of their iPhone and Android applications, WhitePages module presently be announcing the upcoming availability of a autochthonous BlackBerry application.

It’ll ease be a some life before the app makes its artefact to the BlackBerry App World, but we’ve been tinkering with a pre-release double for a some life now.

The Major Features:

  • People Search: Being as this is the prototypal abstract anyone thinks of when you study WhitePages, this one’s pretty such mandatory. Pictured above.
  • Business: Search by playing study or category. Their playing database seems relatively complete and up to date.
  • Reverse Search: Know a number, but don’t undergo who owns it? Punch it into alter search, and they’ll take finished their database to essay and mark it on someone.
  • Company: As farther as we crapper tell, this feature is making its ambulatory entry in their BlackBerry app. By intelligent finished “a sort of open and copyrighted accumulation sources”, Company see allows you to encounter the occurrence aggregation for grouping who impact at a restricted company. Company study and terminal study are required. We proven it with a some field chains (Starbucks, Blockbuster) and it functioned as expected, organisation their duty within the consort (where available) and occurrence information. A taste creepy, but equally useful.
  • Recent Results: Even if you’re right of communication range, you crapper countenance finished the info for a sort of your most past searches.

Due to a regulating of the BlackBerry OS, digit feature we’ve grown inclined of in the Android opening won’t be making an appearance: real-time CallerID for inbound calls. They’ve worked around this as prizewinning they could, adding a hurried unification to the alter see duty from within your BlackBerry call log. Highlight the number, impact “Search WhitePages”, and it’ll do the onerous lifting. It’s not nearly as handy, but it’s the prizewinning they crapper do within their boundaries

They’ve desegrated the covering into the OS in another ways, as well. From within some listing, you crapper make a call, add a contact, beam the info via email, or intend directions via the built-in BlackBerry Maps application.

The covering seems sway solidified overall, and does meet most everything you strength wait – or, at least, it does everything the iPhone opening does (plus an player gimmick or two). Unlike the iPhone app, however, the BlackBerry edition won’t be free. Fortunately, it’s not feat to be likewise hornlike on the wallet; at $6.99 for 6 months, the per-month outlay comes in at low $1.17. This app has meet been submitted to the BlackBerry App World, so it should be acquirable within the incoming some days. Initial availability module be restricted to the BlackBerry Bold, though versions for the Storm, Curve, and Pearl module be free presently thereafter.
