RIM opens doors wide to the BlackBerry Beta Zone

There's really nothing quite like getting an app or indeed an entire OS before your buddies do, even if that app is so buggy to make it unusable. RIM's giving you the chance to be that shinning star among your friends -- a geek lord if you will -- with the launch of its new BlackBerry Beta Zone. Getting on board is dead easy: if you live in Canada, the US, or the United Kingdom, simply sign up, download stuff, test said stuff, and provide some feedback. No word on what exactly you'll get to take to task, but we do know whatever it is will be free, likely buggy, and an all around good time. After hearing all that if you still feel like you're ready to help shape the future of BlackBerry, follow the read link and get yourself signed up.
