Father’s Day is just around the corner and if your dad is a BlackBerry user, why not recommend these cool FREE BlackBerry apps to him. Or better yet, surprise him by installing it in his BlackBerry before he wakes up on the 20th.
Nice Office LITE is an application that turns your dad’s BlackBerry into a virtual mobile office, as it lets him manage email, calendar, contacts, and tasks, store forms and documents online and send them directly to customers, track sales and lead activity by workflows and status levels, among other business tasks. It even automatically logs device activity and gives detailed reporting on mobile interactions with contacts, tracking messages, calls, appointments and more.
Help Dad manage his contacts easily. The award-winning Gwabbit for BlackBerry makes e-mail contact capture fast and fun! Gwabbit automatically scans incoming BlackBerry emails, finds contacts, and instantly transforms them into contact records within Dad’s BlackBerry address book.
