Research In Motion (RIMM) announced the release of Tivo for Blackberry, and application that allows you to view and schedule shows on your Tivo from a Blackberry mobile device. According to RIMM:
With TiVo® for BlackBerry® smartphones you can wirelessly access your channel listings and program your favorite shows while on the go with the familiar TiVo look, feel and features that you’ve come to enjoy at home. Whether you’re working late or stuck in commute on your way home from the office, you can quickly and easily search by title, keyword or actor for what you like to watch—maybe it’s the latest news, a season finale, or a movie. Your BlackBerry smartphone functions just like a remote control, so you can also browse by category, popular shows, daily picks and more. Plus, you can add the show to your calendar to remind you when your favorite show is on. And together with a bright crisp screen, easy-to-navigate menu, shortcut keys and more, your BlackBerry smartphone makes scheduling recordings a whole lot easier.
This is great news for Blackberry users and another example of the influx of apps for Blackberry. They have a long way to catch up with the iPhone, but the increasing number of released apps is good to see.
