Dear all 8thcivic members with oem navi,

As you may (or may not) know, we finally released our 8th civic navi JAVOScreen screen protector. They are made out of the same material as our popular TL and TSX models but are pre-cut to fit your civic’s oem navi perfectly.

We’re going to give away 3 of these screen protectors to celebrate their release. If you’re an oem navi owner and would like to enter, all you have to do is post a pic of your ride on this thread. A winner will be picked and announced one week from today (4/15/2008).

The winner will have their choice of ultra clear or anti glare version. We’re going to ship the prizes worldwide (if needed). So Canadian owners are welcome to join!

Good luck!

If you’re one of those people who really love the looks of the Treo and don’t want a case that will cover it up but still want some protection from scratches and slight drops and bumps, here’s something you may be interested in looking into, JAVOEdge’s JAVOClear case.

I am reviewing the JAVOClear case that will fit the Treo 750 as well as the 680, 755p and of course, the Treo 750v. JAVOClear case is available for a variety of mobile devices not necessarily smartphone. Check out the available models for the JAVOClear case here.

Remember all of that good news surrounding the success of the Palm Centro? It looks like we may have jumped the gun with the congratulatory statements. Palm has just announced an amendment to their Q3 earnings report for the period ending on February 28th, and things are not looking good for the embattled company. Their initial estimates indicated a $31.5 million loss, which isn’t great. Unfortunately the bad news gets worse, as a newly revised Q3 statement indicates losses totaling roughly $57 million. Oh dear. These sinking numbers should be viewed in contrast with the same period last year, which actually saw a profit of $11.8 million. Palm is attributing much of the loss increase to the falling American securities and credit market. Another casualty of a rapidly sinking economy, and unquestionably bad news for Palm. Then again, perhaps their fortunes could be reversed by releasing a small mobile companion notebook…oh wait.

You may remember our first look for the BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.3 from six months ago. You may remember our first look for the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager from nearly a year ago.  You may even remember our first look for the BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.2 from one and a half years ago.

Now we extend this streak of first looks with BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.5.

Picking up where the release of BlackBerry Desktop Manager 4.3 underwhelmed after it’s initial makeover, the new release of BlackBerry Desktop Manager will feature a complete overhaul of the interface from top to bottom. While this beta version does not feature any major enhancements above and beyond the UI asthetics, it is certainly a breath of fresh air from the 1998-esque releases we have previously seen from RIM. We expect this version to launch around the same time as the ever-fabled OS 4.5 device software.

Please note this version is still in beta, however we did notice one interesting change. It appears the included Roxio Media Manager no longer includes the full Roxio Media Creator Suite but rather the Media Manager portion only. Assuming nothing changes between now and retail release and you want to keep your abilities to burn CDs, burn DVDs and VCDs, etc., we suggest remaining on BDM 4.3 or BDM 4.2 SP2. Of course, that is assuming these commercial features won’t be removed from these versions as well. We always found it rather humorous that Media Manager advertised the purchased upgrade to the full-blown version of Media Creator Suite, when it could simply be accessed by clicking the Home link at the bottom of the application.

Two other features that are missing from this beta version are the ability to use your device as a tethered modem and the ability to force-load an OS to a ”507″ device (one that has been wiped using JavaLoader) using Application Loader. Let’s hope these features are re-added prior to public launch of the software. We’re in the process or redoing our gallery, so in the meantime, check out the all the screen shots you can handle after the jump!
