Ever have trouble getting music onto a BlackBerry? Consider the latest accessory to help you do the job from SanDisk. It's called slotRadio+. Essentially it's a microSD card loaded with a 1,000 songs from top artists of the past few decades. In addition to the 1,000 songs included on the microSD card there's also 4GB of free memory space that can be used to store other media including photos, videos and even more music. slotRadio+ costs $49.99, which might seem pretty expensive. However, a basic 4GB card will cost about $10 and purchasing 1,000 new songs can be pretty spendy (downloading all those songs would easily exceed the card's price tag). The music accessory isn't available for all cell phones. In fact, it's only available for these Verizon BlackBerry models: BlackBerry Curve 8530, BlackBerry Pearl 8130, BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8230, BlackBerry Storm/Storm2, BlackBerry Tour 9630, and BlackBerry® 8830 World Edition.
