On The Air Recorder for BlackBerry PlayBook Offers a Fun Themed Look

on the air voice recorder blackberry playbook

I know the PlayBook has a voice recorder but after using this one for a few days, I really enjoy how this is themed.

On the Air offers an old school look with the different signs that display as different functions are used.  “On The Air”, “Off The Air” and “Stand By” for the images and the text on pause changes to resume letting you know if it is paused.

This is a Very nice application for those that enjoy a little extra graphics with a voice recorder. When the rerecording is finished, it simply places the recording  in your music folder on the PlayBook under OnTheAir.

Details: A fun way to use the voice record function on the BlackBerry PlayBook. This themed voice recorder offers the old style On the Air signs that change as different functions are called from the application.

Record for fun, let the kids go “On the Air” and record their singing or use the “On the Air” app to record a meeting at work. This application functions a lot like the voice recorder on the PlayBook, we added an easy to use interface with themed graphics that are activated by different functions making it fun to use by all ages.

Features
• Record (On the Air)
• Pause/Resume ( Stand By)
• Stop (Off the Air)
• All Audio Files are saved in the PlayBook Music Folder with the prefix of OnTheAir.

Price 0.99

On The Air is Available in BlackBerry App World Here.

5 Marbles BlackBerry PlayBook Puzzle Game. Fun and Challenging

5 marbles blackberry playbook puzzle game

Stephen let us know about his new game for the PlayBook called 5 Marbles. 5 Marbles is a modern version of the classic Japanese abstract strategy board game “Gomoku” or you can call it Five in a Row. This game is fun yet challenging and worth the purchase if you enjoy puzzle type games at all.

Details: Each player takes turns placing one of their marbles on the game board. To win the game you need to get 5 marbles in a row either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. It sounds easy but it is deceivingly difficult… especially when your opponent is not only attempting to block you but also take the win for themselves!

Practice and hone your skills against the 4 increasingly difficult computer levels or use those talents to take on your friends head to head.

In addition to the traditional game with 2 players (blue and red marbles) this game also has an option to include blocker marbles in one of 2 modes to further increase the challenge.

Price 0.99
