We have posted a few times on the application Blurts. If you haven't heard, it is an application that connects your BlackBerry and PC via bluetooth, allowing you to view email, sms, and incoming call alerts directly on your PC. Along with its current features, Blurts has added the following:
- SMS message threading with chat history and ability to have more that one SMS window open at once
- Option to split messages larger than 160 characters into multiple messages
- Capture of images from your BlackBerry's screen
- Option to auto lock PC once Blurts disconnects
- Now supporting Broadcom Bluetooth drivers
- Importing of your BlackBerry's address book for alerts
- Contacts photo will display from address book when receiving an alert
- 2-Way transfer of clipboard
- Non-English characters now supported
- Location of alert on desktop is now customizable
If you're looking to give Blurts a go, they also have a trial version, however it does not include all of the new features features. The application is compatible with all devices running OS 4.2.1 and higher.
