I just stumbled across this app, so sry if it has already been posted here. The app is called bluctrl and it allows you to use your blackberry as a wireless mouse and keyboard with the help of bluetooth. I just downloaded it and am playing with it now. The app was super easy to setup.
here are some faqs from their site
1. Which smart phones are supported?
bluCTRL is currently available for BlackBerry Curve (83xx series), Pearl (81xx,82xx series) and 88xx series. Additional BlackBerry models and other mobile devices support is on the way. ( But I am running it on the storm under computability mode just fine)
2. Which operating systems are supported?
bluCTRL receiver is available for Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista.
Seems like a good app, but doesn't work great on the Storm
Portrait view only, and typing is impossible as it only allows the first letter of a key to be entered:
- Multitap setting: Press ABC key and you get "a". Double-click gives "aa" - not "b"
- SureType setting: Same as above...
Mouse control is pretty good though, and if this worked in landscape it would be perfect.
Just thought about my previous post... Don't know why you'd want to type a large amount anyway, when you'd be so close to your PC for this to work that you could use THAT keyboard
Controlling (other than typing) is great, so recommended app!

well like I said i didn't know if the app had been posted here, but apparently it was....oh well it is still a great app and i just want to show my support for it (even though it is not entirely storm friendly yet )
