While browsing through the new BlackBerry World today I stumbled on the new CASCADES CBC app. If anybody has a dev alpha you should check it out and if you let me know how it is that would be greatly appreciated. Here is the link BlackBerry World - CBC News

That's awesome its always annoyed me when Canadian companies wouldn't build apps for Blackberry of which CBC was one of them nice to see them finally build one

They released 3 off them CBC News, CBC Radio, and CBC Hockey. I've played with the news one and it is pretty nice.

This is great! I love CBC. The app looks very comprehensive. The pull-down Audio Player is a great feature, video streaming is great too. I would like a TV streaming (episode archive) feature, but I guess this is strictly "CBC News", so I'll let it slide.

Send them a email and mention it to them the worse anyone can say is sorry no !
Best ... 'thanks for the feedback we'll see what we can do next rewrite ' .

i sent a email (2-3 months back) regards a PB app re:CBC Music, a rep from that dept. actually got back to me less than 24hrs told me of their plans which i shared on the PB forum. Stated they had heard it worked well thru the native browser, but still looking into a PB app .....

These apps may get a mention tonight on CBC National, 'with peter mansbridge' , via a top story article, and as a analysis story,

... see recent post in this thread (likely last or second last page; Over half of Canadian pre registrations are from non BB users

Does anyone have a problem with the "share" ability on the CBC news app? When I press it, it keeps saying that I need at least 1 email account. I have four of them on my phone. I'm not sure if its a bug or some other problem.

Same here. When I select "add account", it just takes me to the original "add account" area for the hub.
