Becoming an efficient Blackberry addict.
I spend way too much time on my Blackberry Curve. I won’t deny it. But it wasn’t until recently that a found some great tricks to make my time spent on my Crackberry more efficient. I found it rather annoying having to scroll around my menu so often as I bounced around from application to application. Being a huge fan of keyboard shortcuts, I wanted to find shortcuts for my Blackberry. Here are my findings for the home screen.
