In more BlackBerry news, E-Trade Financial is giving account holders an 
application that will let them get real-time stock quotes and trade 
straight from their BlackBerrys. The firm says it.s the first major U.S. 
brokerage house to provide a mobile application with cash transfers and 
real-time quotes.

The free application, called E-Trade Mobile Pro, promises trading will 
be much easier than using its Website on a mobile phone. Features of the 
application include the ability to trade stocks and options, set up 
portfolio watch lists and get news.

The software will be available as a free download on E-Trade's Website 
starting today. Though E-Trade initially will launch the application 
only for BlackBerry handsets, versions compatible with other handsets 
could follow.
