BlackBerry seems to be on overdrive lately when it comes to attracting new developers to their platform. Today, they announced their brand new Widget platform to bring smaller developer on board.
The widgets will mostly aim at developers that want to create web based apps for the devices, but provide access to device services like contacts and e-mail at the same time. The Widgets will be running on all BlackBerry devices that run on firmware 5.0 and higher and are based on HTML, CSS and Javascript.
The SDK is available here.
