BBBoxee
Hitting a roadblock

I apologize for not posting as many details about my BBBoxee project for the Blackberry. I seem to be able to only contribute a little bit of time into each month which has been very costly.
I seem to keep hitting the same roadblock each month. I keep forgetting that you cannot always see network traffic from the blackberry if you’re sniffing from a wireless connection. This makes it difficult since I will always have to test the XBMC/Boxee detection protocol at home before I can develop the app any further.
Nevertheless I will get back to re-prototyping the handshaking process with plain Java before finally resolving the issue in RIM’s Java.
Boxee Remote for Blackberry Project Entry 1

This weekend I learned that there is no Boxee remote control application for the Blackberry. Therefore, I am developing an application for use on the Blackberry that will work with Boxee/XBMC. I will be spending the next few weeks observing and documenting the functionality of the BlackBerry API that will fit my needs. Yet, I have run into a slight problem: the Cyrpto portion of that Java for Blackberry API requires a paid registration and signed application. More details to follow…
