BerryStore gives us application fix now

What a great find by Jared at BlackBerry News. We know that the official RIM BlackBerry Application Store will be released by the end of March at CTIA. Until then, we just have to play the waiting game. (Aw, the waiting game sucks! Let’s play Hungry Hungry Hippos!) Or do we? There’s BlackBerry application store out there right now that gives you access to a sea of applications. It’s called BerryStore, and you can check it the beta version right now.

You can access the store right from your BlackBerry by heading to m.berrystore.com. From there you can check out their 71 applications — hopefully more by the time you read this. They break them down into categories, and after you download and play with an app, you can go back and rate it.

This is definitely something I’m going to check out over the next few days. It’s not a complete app store by any means — it is in beta, after all. It does present something uncommon, though: A gathering of applications available in one place, accessible from a BlackBerry device, and ready for over the air downloads.

If you’re a developer, make sure to check out their developer page so you can get your application loaded up and listed. It sounds like a mighty fine distribution outlet.
