viigo tango81 Viigo Tango 8 for Storm Now Available

Alright Storm users, this has been a long time coming.  Viigo is officially out of beta for you guys with the launch of Viigo Tango 8.  I spoke to Viigo at CES about Tango 8 and have been trying to get my hands on a copy for a while now.  Luckily for you Storm users, you can have it now.  It is not currently available for other BlackBerries yet, but soon my friends.  So here is a run down of the new features:

Viigo has made several enhancements in Tango 8
• Post interesting articles to Twitter with a single click.
• Use Quick Launch buttons to email an article to friend or to yourself, Tweet an article of interest, Post To Del.ic.ious, view a full Article or open in a browser
• Access real time status of the flights in your Flights and Travel itinerary
New features in Stocks & Finance:
• Create your own portfolios that include the stocks or mutual funds of your choosing
• Each portfolio lists the ticker name, the price, the change and the percentage change
• Access depth details on trades including the volume of shares traded, the current bid/ask, time of last trade, market cap and much more
A Preview of Viigo Shopping:
• Viigo has partnered with Mobihand and Magmic (the Bplay store) to bring you the ability to purchase the latest mobile software, software accessories, games, themes and more
• Details on the product are available in just one click without ever leaving Viigo
• More partners and more stores will be unveiled shortly
Now, you are all wondering about podcasts, well Viigo told me that they are working on it and it will hopefully be available in the near future.  Also one thing that was on the version I saw at CES was Social Networking.  This feature was a Facebook enabled channel that let you do some pretty cool things.  I am not sure if it will come on the release for the rest of the BlackBerry family or on the next update to Tango 8, but let’s cross our fingers!
So, if you have a Storm go get Tango 8 now!!!
Go to GetViigo.com on your BlackBerry and Tango 8 will appear as version 3.0.856.
*Note: you must uninstall your current version of Viigo first.

    I've been running Viigo on my Storm for several weeks.

    In this version I do not see the so-called Twitter or Quick Launch. And single click posting to del.CIO.us is gone.
    I get lots of screen lockups in portrait mode, and total crashes and device besets sending articles by email in landscape mode.
