“Linux users who also use a BlackBerry ™ now have
an option for managing their BlackBerry directly from Linux.“Barry is an Open Source application that will provide
synchronization, backup, restore and program management for
BlackBerry ™ devices. Barry is primarily developed on Linux,
but is intended as a cross platform library and application set,
targeting Linux, BSD, 32/64bit, and big/little endian systems.“The Barry project began in October 2005 and has steadily added
features and polish to Blackberry usage on Linux ever since. We
were the first to reverse engineer the battery charging handshake
via USB.”
