It seems there is a web forum for every topic, mainstream or niche. For some topics there are multiple forums, full of posts from thousands of users every day. Among the many BlackBerry-dedicated ones, I find myself browsing Howard Forums, PinStack, and CrackBerry the most. Depending on your device and operating system, you will experience different interfaces when dealing with forums. If you visit them from your BlackBerry browser frequently, you might want to check out a new application called BerryBlab. Its sole purpose is to provide a better way of viewing and posting on forums from your BlackBerry.
BerryBlab provides most core forum functionalities, all without using your web browser. You can access multiple forums with the software, viewing forums and sub-forums, threads, and private messages. That all comes with the free version, which provides limited image viewing as well.
The premium version adds the ability to reply to posts, reply to private message, and subscribe to and unsubscribe from threads. That in addition to full image viewing.
To download the free version, just head to http://www.berryblab.com/BlackBerry.aspx from your BlackBerry browser. If you want the premium version, visit the same site from your desktop browser and enter in the needed information before finishing the payment process. Make sure to check out the FAQ page if you do decide to try the software.

um, craptastic already lol. i cant download from the link you have posted…it tells you just to go to http://www.berryblab.com to download, brings you to the same exact page…so how do you actually download this thing? :(
The difficult thing is finding any forums that will accept berryblab. So far, I have only been able to input Crackberry successfully, but even that gets an error message every time I open the app, but it will take me to the forum anyway. None of my other forums use this app that I’ve been able to find. Would be nice if there was a list, other than the three listed above (again, I can only get crackberry to work).
@Tideland yes the BerryBlab app is brand new and will take some time for it to spread out to a large number of forums. If there is a particular forum you would like to use BerryBlab with you should absolutely send the admin an email with a link to the BerryBlab site.
let them know you would like to use the software and ask nicely if they would add support for it (It is quite easy to set up on their end).
good luck
