abhisathe 8 Report post Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) Just received sms from reliance "Dear Reliance Customer, Thanks for your patience during the recent Blackberry outrage. RIM offers apps worth $100.Visit www.rim.com/newsroom" The Blackberry offer of freebies to compensate the three day outage seems to be a farce. Checked blackberry application world this morning and noticed that BB is offering just two applications as gifts to begin with. One is bubble game and second one is a software meant for safe driving. I downloaded the bubble game and found it to be very ordinary. I would in fact think twice even if were to be available free on the app world. Second application is about drive safely, where your SMS, mail and BBM messages are read aloud so that you can know about them while you are driving. This application (though a Pro version) is of no use to me. There is no other choice offered by BB to download applications. Hence I am reason to believe that the BB compensation offer is a farce.
