BlackBerry App World 2.0 is out of beta


Posted on 20 August 2010

RIM announced on Thursday that BlackBerry App World is now no longer in beta and is available for all BlackBerry owners.
A few things to note: Developers will be able to offer apps for $0.99 and $1.99, and there is support for both credit card and carrier billing. You can also use your BlackBerry ID to manage your account information across multiple devices, and the navigation has been improved considerably with new tabbed sections and the capability to quickly view the Top 25, Newest, and Recently Updated Apps. QR barcode scanning is also supported.

If you're a BlackBerry owner, you should receive a notification when the new app store is ready for download. Originally posted at Dialed In
