One of the big shortcomings of BlackBerry App World is that the only way to view the catalog of available applications was through the actual BlackBerry App World application on your device. There is no way to view App World via the Web.
This, at least, was the case until today as Research in Motion now allows you to browse the entire BlackBerry App World catalog via the web.
All BlackBerry App World applications must still be downloaded via the client on your BlackBerry, however, you can send yourself a link to any application that you browse via the web and would like to download. A nice feature to add would be the ability for you to log in and create an account. As App World gets bigger the ability for it to predict applications that you might like based on previous applications that you have downloaded would be beneficial.
Additionally, not all applications run on all BlackBerry devices so a section that tells you supported devices under each app would be nice. Maybe even highlight your device if supported and you are logged in. BlackBerry App World still has a long way to go, but, it is an awful lot better than what RIM initially launched.

Nokia 5330 XpressMusic Affordable for All
With the economic pressure of today, most that need a mobile phone look for ‘cheap’, and although the new Nokia 5530 XpressMusic isn’t exactly rock bottom price, it is Nokia’s most affordable touch screen handset according to an article on gaj-it.
The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is Nokia’s 3rd touch screen handset and takes quite a step down from the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and the Nokia flagship handset the Nokia N97.
Probably the most attractive selling point of the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is its price at £129 on prepay and so is affordably for those people in the lower income bracket, and still comes jammed with social networking functions and media for its very reasonable price.
