RIM launches BlackBerry App World

Posted by Joe on April 1, 2009 | 5 comments | Filed under : BlackBerry Applications

And not a minute too late. We’ve been hearing for weeks that RIM planned to launch BlackBerry App World on the eve of CTIA, and when I woke up this morning (5 a.m. Vegas time, baby) the announcement was right in my Inbox. You can download BlackBerry App World right now, straight to your device. After the jump, a neat-o graphic, plus the download requirements and instructions.

The first thing you’ll need to do is set up a PayPal account. This is the exclusive checkout method of BlackBerry App World. If you have one, move on. If not, head to PayPal.com to get started.

From there you can head to the download site from your computer. Here you can click the download tab and enter in your email address. RIM will send you a link, and you’re on your way. If you want to get it right from your device, head to blackberry.com/appworld/download from your BlackBerry. App World requires OS 4.2 and above.

Works on my 8110 but the “Games” category is buggy; it says 248 games available but actually only has one game – “South Park 10″.

The Level app doesn’t want to install on my Storm from App World, but i googled the developer and found their main site, it installed fine from there. Looks to be a different version also.
