So New Year's comes around and HD brings something cool to its customers new and old. They are giving two of their hottest selling themes GreenTech and Win7Like for $1.99 instead of $6.99/$7.99. Both utilize OS 5.0 and they are pretty cool. You can ...

Makes me feel like I'm on my actual PC running Windows 7 right now. It has the look. I'd like to think the detail is pretty sharp too. Win7Like has 8 customizable slots (3 to the left, 5 to the bottom). Its pretty cool for wallpapers too since there is a nice big opening as you can tell from the pic above. What is cool about this theme is depending on your style of wallpaper it can look like your icons are just floating there and there isn't any dividers what so ever. There is also a Manage Connections and Options button at top.

Like that look of Windows Vista and have it with you all the time? Well this theme by HDD can give your Blackberry a "Vistalike" look. The homescreen looks pretty good as you have a taskbar at the bottom which has 4 customizable slots. You also have the "Start" button which takes you to the Application section. The date/time can be clicked on to access the Clock feature, as can the battery (Options) and Signal (Manage Connections) buttons. If you look to your left you have 3 customizable slots also. This rounds your total to 7 slots you can play with. Backgrounds look good on this theme since nothing really takes up the middle of the screen. Also with "Vistalike" your going to get a free background pack which I will link you too later.

Carving a nice theme for the spooky holiday, "Halloween" by Hedone Design fits nicely. It sporting five creepy customizable slots that are different colors when highlighted. Flying bats as signal meter or spiders web as battery meters is a nice touch also.

By now the dust should have settled and if you are in the know, and as cool as we hope you are, you should have Blackberry Messenger 5 now. Blackberry Messenger has always been one of the coolest features of the Blackberry, but this latest version is soo much better! Release by RIM last night, there has been a influx of BBM use since then. The day after I think I practically spent my whole morning in BBM. But the question is, if you haven't got it yet, why should you?
