BlackBerry Alliance Membership


As a mulitplatform smartphone developer we work with a number of vendor programs. One of the programs that we think is worth special mention is the BlackBerry Alliance Program. What this program does, is not just give you access to the standard development and marketing tools, but it also lets developers like us get access to other benfits including access to special BlackBerry hardware, training, and other programs.

If you are a BlackBerry developer you should check out the program. Its certainly worth it.

And we would love to hear what you think of it and how it compares to other smartphone developer programs in the comments on this entry.
