Blackberry, Google, SMS and J2ME
If you read my post about the new Google SMS service and you're not sure that you can remember all the flags for searching AND you can download J2ME applications on your Blackberry (you should have no problems downloading applications if you have an account on a Blackberry Enterprise Server that has the Mobile Data Service installed and configured for your account), then you should point your browser over to http://www.thauvin.net/erik/j2me/beta/GooglME.jad to download a J2ME application that Erik Thauvin wrote. It takes care of all the flags and syntax of the SMS, let's you choose which service you want to use (ie: Google Local, Froogle, Google Search, Definitions), and it keeps a nice tidy history of your searches. It looks like it's been tested on the Blackberry 7210 so far, so it you download it and use it on a different Blackberry, let him know.
