Rubus by Pootermobile

With the operating system BlackBerry 6 now available for more devices besides the BlackBerry Torch came new themes for those devices running BlackBerry 6. With the new OS came new and welcome features. One of them being Universal Search. With Rubus you can easily open universal search by simply clicking the search icon on the top right corner just as you would with the default BlackBerry 6 theme. Not many, if any at all, themes have this function on the homescreen. Another innovative design in Rubus is the addition of "widgets" where you can add and remove the calendar, weather slot, and icons on the homescreen. Rubus feels more like an extension of the default theme and very much appealing to the eye.

Customizable icons on homescreen – 5 for keyboard devices, 8 for touchscreen devices
Weather widget 1st position in the applications screen – you need to download a free or paid weather application in order for the weather to appear on the homescreen
Widgets Options Page – click the options icon on the bottom left banner
Universal search on homescreen – only for devices running BlackBerry 6
Wallpaper friendly
No carrier
Transitions throughout

Trackpad on the homescreen for the BlackBerry Torch has been disabled because of a conflict in the Widgets page. I chose touchscreen functionality because the BlackBerry Torch is primarily a touchscreen device.

For trackball/pad devices: when clicking the button to go to the widgets screen from the main screen you must scroll left to focus on the buttons on the widgets page. When clicking the arrow to hide the widgets page to go to the homescreen you must scroll to the right to focus on the icons on the homescreen.
