RE: https://kolektiva.social/@poshelnahuymedia/116951835280905494
This reminds me my friend Jack.
I worked at #blackberry for a bit and one of the "perks" at the time was employee pricing on devices. After the lackluster launch of the #playbook #tablet, it was a yardsale - we could grab up to 10 Playbooks for cost essentially ($200-300 depending on model).
My friend Milo bought four. Two were for Jack, his son with Downs syndrome.
Jack had a collection of favourite things, he would carry around with him in his Favourite Things pillowcase: feathers, stuffed animals, sticks, leaves... stones.. and a brick. And that Playbook. Down the stairs? `TUNK-DUNK-DUNK-CRUNCH-TUNK` went the pillow case.
That goddamned Playbook lasted 4 years. When it finally died (fell in the pool, not abuse), they unboxed the second one and got 3 more years out of IT.
I think about that Playbook at lot. I still have one in a box somewhere, I don't have the heart to recycle it.
Anyways, Thinkpads of this era were the same. Indestructable.

Never had a BlackBerry in it's prime day, but naturally had to get one as a collectible :blackberry:
This rather intensively used BlackBerry Curve 8520 was released in August 2009 and had 512 MHz CPU, 256 MB of internal memory, Bluetooth 2.0 and WiFi for connectivity, 2 MP camera able to capture 320p videos and quite well working optical trackpad :neocat_phone:

In Germanic #languages, like English, this #berry derives its name from its vivid blue hue. But is #blue the color associated with #blueberries in other languages?

Mobile Twitter on the Blackberry
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2008/10/mobile-twitter-on-the-blackberry/Twitter == Addictive. CrackBerry == Addictive. Twitter + BlackBerry == toxic levels of addictivenessicity.
This is a quick review of some of the mobile Twitter interfaces and how well they work on the BlackBerry. I'm just looking at mobile web interfaces (for now).
Mobile Twitter
First off - the official mobile Twitter interface - http://m.twitter.com
It's fairly plain and uninteresting. At the bottom of the screen, we see a few options.
You can even perform basic follow / unfollow activity.
At first glance, it seems ok. Most of the basic functionality is there. If all you want to do is read your stream and post - it's fine.
But! Thanks to the Twitter API, there are a plethora of different interfaces.
Slandr
Let's look at Slandr.Wow! Straight away we can see the difference. Avatars are displayed - as are adverts - and there's a whole heap of extra functionality. Those icons beside a person's name are "reply", "Direct Message", "Favourite" and "Retweet". It really saves the wear and tear on the thumbs to have quick access to those functions.There's even more at the bottom.
Conspicuous by its absence on the official interface is "Replies". Slandr quickly gives you access to any messages you've been sent - either directly or in your friend stream.
There's also a wicked search page.
The only problem with it, is that you cannot bookmark your searches. So, if you're following a particular subject of hashtag, you're out of luck. You'll also notice that hashtags aren't clickable.
Twitstat Mobile
Twitstat is a great site for gathering stats about your twittering. Their mobile interface is also pretty good.It's clean and well spaced. Although you may see fewer tweets at once, it's much easier to read than other interfaces.
The little icons allow you to favourite, reply and - oddly - "LOL" someone. Disappointingly, they rely on JavaScript. I keep JS switched off on my BlackBerry for performance reasons.
On to the features that make Twitstat stand out.Reply highlighting. When scrolling through a load of tweets, it's easy to miss ones directed at you. Twitstat helpfully colours the tweets to make them stand out.
The "ego" link will return all the tweets that feature your name.
Hashtags are clickable and can be bookmarked.
Anyone who follows twitstat, will have generated for them some details about their tweeting.I post a lot about beer...
Not only will Twitstat expand some links run through URL shortening services, it will also place flickr pictures in-line.This is probably the most useful aspect. It's so annoying to have to click through to find out what someone thinks is cool. Much better to see the full URL so that I can determine if it's a link I want to visit, if I've seen it before orif it's BlackBerry friendly.
Dabr
Finally, on to dabr.Lots of options - but the screen is quite cluttered. Again, it has the ability to reply, DM, favourite and retweet.
The basic search functionality is good. It allows bookmarking.Hashtags are also clickable.
Profile pages allow you to see followers, which is a nice touch.
It does have a couple of bugs. The input field isn't limited to 140 characters. This means you don't get notified if your tweet is too long. It also claims to do reply colouring - but I can't see any colouring in the BlackBerry browser.
Conclusion
All of the alternatives are better than the standard m.twitter.com interface. I find myself using Twitstat for reading and searching - but as it doesn't allow me to follow new users, I flick back to Slandr quite a bit. Twitstat has cooler features, but Slandr is more useable. Dabr is fine - but it doesn't have anything to make it stand out from the others.
Geek Stuff
These device used was a BlackBerry 8800, running firmware 4.5.0.37. The screenshots were taken using JL_Cmder.
