Historically, BlackBerry devices have been marketed as business tools geared toward working professionals. Though some minor things have changed, such as the appearance of BlackBerry's App World , which features a wide array of games for BlackBerry devices, it seems impossible to deny the fact that BlackBerries will forever be tied to the business world.

Building business apps using the BlackBerry browser has never been easier, as the architecture is simplistic and straightforward. The BlackBerry browser is a Java ME application, and according to Research in Motion, this is the operating system that has been a part of the company’s technology for almost ten years. As we all know, technology moves quickly, and many changes have been made to the browser over the past decade, but at its core, it is the same.

If you’ve been a BlackBerry developer for a while now, you already understand this. But for those of you who are new to the world of creating business applications for BlackBerry, it’s important to understand that BlackBerry’s latest browser (version v4.6) supports loads of markups and web 2.0 functions.
