StudentBerry has been undergoing several changes over the past few weeks, which is why things have been so quiet around here. First, and most importantly, our name has changed. We are no longer going by StudentBerry, but have instead opted to be called StudentDocket. We felt that the name StudentBerry was a little too limiting, and we’re excited for a fresh start under the new name.

You can check out the new, all be it quite similar, site at http://www.StudentDocket.com. Nothing too new going on over there just yet, but you can expect several changes within the coming weeks as we roll out new and exciting features for StudentDocket.

We’ve also decided to drop the StudentBerry forums, in favor of GetSatisfaction, a community of companies and users devoted to improving the Customer Service experience. Though the forums were great, and allowed us to communicate with you guys fairly closely, the sign up process was pretty intimidating, and frankly unnecessary. With GetSatisfaction, you are no longer forced to register just for us, which we’re hoping encourages more people to get involved.

So let us know what you think over at the new site. You can expect our extended network to be updated shortly, with more exciting announcements along the way. So check back often, you won’t regret it!

Please note that installing this update will cause all previously saved data within StudentBerry to be lost. We made significant changes to the databases and were therefore unable to preserve previously entered data. If you have information within StudentBerry that cannot be lost, please do not install this update until a more convenient time. We apologize for any inconvenience!

Included in this update is a new backup feature as well as a bug fix for users of BlackBerry OS V 4.3. For a complete list of changes please visit our forum posting for the release. Point your Blackberry device to http://m.StudentBerry.com to get your new upgraded copy! Alternatively, you can install the manual version over at http://StudentBerry.com/download

Enjoy!

Currently we are testing a release that ads integration with the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and allows for data backups.  Also included are a few minor enhancements based on user feedback  as well as a revamping of how StudentBerry handles the trial period notifications.  This will really just be a small update we’re pushing out to address some of the more important issues, but expect some larger releases to follow shortly!

Thus far the trials are going pretty well, so expect the update within the week!  As always, you can keep track of StudentBerry’s progress by signing up for our mailing list along the right hand side.

We’d love to thank our early release purchasers by offering a partial refund equal to the amount of the price change.  We’ll be processing those within the next few days so keep an eye out for them!  Also, all coupons currently available will also remain viable as an extra special early adopters discount.   Thanks for the amazing response we’ve been receiving over the past few days, keep the feedback coming!
