If BlackBerry slows down, starts malfunctioning or freezing, always try removing the battery and waiting a few seconds before reinserting it. Ninety-five percent of the issues BlackBerry users experience are resolved by simply removing the battery based on my experience.

Storm 9530 & Storm2 9550 5.0 Theme Fix
I upgraded my Storm 9530 and 9550 to the OFFICIAL and was promptly greeted by the ugly wallpaper bug. As reported the fix does work but I will break it down for you step by step.
First and foremost this fix does work but it has to be done each time you change your theme or your wallpaper.
Step 1. Change to the theme you would like to use.
Step 2. Change your wallpaper to a new wallpaper of your choice(I will be posting some wallpapers for premium members so that you can basically change your wallpaper to the stock theme wallpaper)
Step 3. After changing your wallpaper, navigate to options, then to Themes. You will notice a blue box next to your active theme. Tap on the box and you will be taken to an options screen.
Step 4. Once you open the theme options change it from 2 rows to 1 row. It will ask you to save. Go ahead and save it but do not back out of the screen. After you save change it back to 2 rows and save again.

Homer was spotted using a BlackBerry
Last night on the Simpsons, Homer was spotted using a BlackBerry 7230 (or is that a 7290?!) after having been given a new position at work. I guess enterprises in cartoon land are still issuing "Old Blue" out to their users. Personally if I was Homer, I'd have asked for an upgrade to a brand spank'n new BlackBerry Bold 9700. More power, 3G and the 9700's battery life is still awesome.

Looks Like Some Kids In Honduras Are Gonna Get New T-Shirts
Macy’s is running this ad for Philles World Champions t-shirts TODAY. That’s right, like 2 hours after the Yankees neutered Brad Lidge in a classic comeback to put them ahead 3-1 in a best-of-seven series, Macy’s is hocking these shirts. The ad should say “Available now for $19.99, or you can wait a week when we are dropping them out of planes in AIDS-ridden African countries for free”. Between the these things and the “19-0″ shirts, third world countries are copping some pretty sick gear.
