I was just reading a post over on BBHub about a free AvantGo travel guide and I remembered that AvantGo used to be one of my favorite applications on my old PocketPC powered Ipaq 5555. Then I remembered that I didn’t really care for AvantGo for BlackBerry because it is a browser based wireless only service that was brutally slow on my old BlackBerry 7100t.
Since my Blackberry 7130e is quite a bit faster running on Verizon’s EV-DO network, I’ve decided to give AvantGo a second try. It’s still not quite is cool as the Windows Mobile version, however, it is usable and actually isn’t half bad. I think I may leave AvantGo installed as it has a wonderful price tag.
I always say… The only thing better than BlackBerry software is FREE BlackBerry software.
You can download AvantGo for BlackBerry here…
This piece of crap software seems to have irretrievably trashed my Blackberry. Immediately after installing it, it won’t even reboot.
Don’t even download this trash.
