OK GLBasic does not support Blackberry but RIM has just announced a new C++ NDK so I suppose the possibility of future support may be there.

The $10000 dollar award goes to anyone who writes an app and it makes at least $1000. They have $100 million to give away.

It's good to see a Phone company throw a bone to us guys once in a while.  :good:

See... http://www.engadget.com/tag/blackberry+world/
Cheers,

Ian.

I sent them a letter asking for a dev device. Maybe there's a way to get one.

It would be awesome and yet another feather in GLB's cap. =D
I came. I saw. I played.

One day, a marketing genius will become famous for giving out free devices to team of developers, who are the non-consumers.  :whistle:

Really, I'd like a free unit but I would guarantee at least 50k free downloads to $1000 but with a team. The idea would be to have a lot of downloads early for a new device sales.
