OtterBox Defender Case for the BlackBerry Curve 8520

By: sourceman

Yesterday I was speaking to one of our customers on the telephone and he was looking for a extremely protective case for his new BlackBerry Curve 8520.  The customer is a public works employee who worked in the water department division of a large city.  He spends a lot of time out in the field and is around heavy equipment and machinery.  He told me he drops his BlackBerry Curve 8520 on a regular basis and is getting worried about doing damage to it.

I advised him of the OtterBox Defender Case for his BlackBerry Curve 8520.  I said the case would be perfect for his BlackBerry and would provide it with great all around protection. 

I really like this case.  Everything I wrap a Blackberry up in one, it makes me want to throw my BlackBerry at a wall or something because it feels like it is so secure and indestructible in there, but please do not throw your BlackBerry against the wall !!!   

The OtterBox Defender Case has three (3) layers of protection for your Blackberry Device.  As you can see by the above photographs, these three (3) layers really help protect your BlackBerry from bumps, scratches, shocks, dings and dust.  The OtterBox is even water-resistant, so you can use your BlackBerry in light rain.  Although, I would not submerge your BlackBerry in the OtterBox as it is not water proof.  You have access to all your BlackBerry devices ports and buttons when the Blackberry is inside of it.  Since I have been in the business of accessory support for our company, I have yet to see a better protecting case for your BlackBerry device.  This case is perfect for those that work out in the elements all day like construction workers, emergency personal, military personal and all sorts of other professions.  I would definitely want one of these cases in these situations.  Oh yeah, they are also great to take with you on your family vacation to the beach! 

I would watch this video I did if you want to learn more about this great product. 

 

Thanks Everyone,

Using the Freedom Universal keyboard 2 with your BlackBerry

Freedom Universal keyboard & removable stand

By BerryMeister

As the senior tech at eAccess Solutions, Inc. one of the most common questions I get asked involves helping a customer set up and use an external keyboard with their BlackBerry. Over the years (I just celebrated my 5^th year with eAccess) we’ve sold and supported several different keyboard devices, but by far the best, most effective and most popular has been the Freedom Universal keyboard 2 which we call the Bluetooth keyboard for BlackBerry.

Though they are not difficult to set up, it can be a frustrating experience for those not familiar with some of the application permission settings on the BlackBerry. I’m always surprised when customers don’t realize that part of what distinguishes our firm from many others on the Web, is that we provide technical support for the products we carry.

What I find interesting in talking with our customers about the Freedom keyboard, is how quickly they become dependent on the device. So much so, that if it ever stops working (or they change to a new BlackBerry device) getting the keyboard working again is an urgent priority. Partly this is because many of us have become completely dependent upon (spelled ‘addicted to’) our BlackBerry devices to stay in touch with our “world.”

Ironically, a lot of BlackBerry “purists” can’t possibly imagine the need for an external keyboard. I used to feel that way myself – however I’ve since discovered another term called “BlackBerry Thumb” which can result from overusing the small keyboard on the device. What the Freedom keyboard provides is a nearly full-sized folding keyboard that fits easily in a shirt pocket or bag. I find it compares very closely to the keyboard found on my Dell™ laptop in terms of size AND typing action.

While the native keyboard on the BlackBerry is great for a quick response to an email or text message, if I’m trying to type a longer response or I have a lot of emails to respond to or text to enter (like addresses) it is really worthwhile to be able to break out the Freedom 2. I also like the fact that it includes a handy pull-out tray that holds your device while you’re typing.

In talking with our customers, I have found that those folks using the new BlackBerry Storm really appreciate the tactile response of a mechanical keyboard as compared to the native Touchscreen™ keyboard found on the Storm. We have found that the product works best when the Storm is used in landscape (horizontal) mode. The reason is that the Storm simulates a standard keyboard in landscape mode, as opposed to the SureType™ keyboard (2 characters per key) that the Storm simulates when it’s in portrait (vertical) mode.

I also like the fact that the developers of the Freedom Universal 2 keyboard have done a great job of continuing to develop their driver software. Not only have they managed to keep up with the flurry of new BlackBerry models being released, but their software really responds quickly allowing you to type at burst speeds and have the keyboard keep up with you. A lot of other keyboards tend to lag behind a fast typist.

So, if you find that your typing demands on your BlackBerry have increased beyond a simple quick email response, you might want to seriously consider the Freedom Universal 2 keyboard. Believe me; your thumbs will thank you!  :  )
