QuickPull v4 Released

The short version:

The long version
Today we are announcing the release of QuickPull v4 for OS 5.0+. This version is everything QuickPull should have been was meant to be from the beginning. In the Dark Ages of Battery Pulls, things were bad. Data was lost. Phones died. People even used to reboot their BlackBerry by hand (rofl?).

Then came a tiny little app with three tiny little buttons: Yes, No, and Schedule. But the Schedule button didn’t really work, so really all you had was ‘Yes’ and ‘No’. Two glorious, mutually exclusive choices. Things were so simple then They kind of remind me of some pills I took once.

QuickPull v2

But the people were confused. Where did these buttons come from? What did they mean? Should they press them… or should they instantly lock their phone and type in their password incorrectly 10 times? Well, luckily for you the story didn’t end there. We knew exactly what the people needed to solve this dilemma: more buttons!

QuickPull v2.ish

Flash-forward 500 years (give or take) and today we are announcing the launching of the release of the new QuickPull v4 version. This version is so smart, so easy to use, you’d swear it was using you! It’s nothing less than a breakthrough in battery-pull technology. Some highlights include:

  • Fixes bug where QuickPull wouldn’t run automatically on newer OS5 releases. NOTE: Older OS5 releases still forever bugged. Try upgrading your OS if you have problems.
  • A wizard startup guide (think ‘Harry Potter’)!
  • A brand new graphic logo (not included in the app itself, see below)
  • Bugfixes (think RAID)
  • Other cool stuff only developers could appreciate (like the Matrix Oracle program)
  • And more!

Oh yeah, and this release was soo cool we even gave it its own domain name: getquickpull.com! Just go there from your BlackBerry… and clicky the appropriate link there and instant QuickPull-icationalyzerness. Go ahead, tell your friends! Seriously, go on. No really, if you want QuickPull v4 it’s the only way you are going to get it. So have fun! I’m too tired to write anything else! Except:

PLX use our Feedback Forum for any praise, ideas, bugs, or suggestions. Or our mirror here.

Oh and have fun you crazy things!
