RIM has launched a new update to Twitter for BlackBerry smartphones that adds features users have been asking for – including geotagging, which allows users to identify their location with their tweets; new language support; cleaner interfaces; new notifications and more.

Head on over to the Vodafone site or you can see the full range of ‘coming soon’ phones and tablets after the break.
We will of course have full reviews of all the below devices in due course.
Last week we showed you a demo video of Google Translator for the iPhone. I didn’t realise at the time that there is an equivalent app for the BlackBerry too, called Navita Translator.
Navita does much the same as Google Translate and you get a vast range of languages to choose from. And if you don’t fancy trying to pronounce the sentence you have translated you can get the app to speak it for you. The app integrates both Google and Bing Translate and there is also a dictionary section although it wouldn’t work for me today.
You can get Navita Translator fro free in BlackBerry App World. It’s a real must if you are going travelling.
