BEIKS KJV Bible eBook

This BlackBerry bible application is the most expensive of those we have reviewed in this article, but for those who are looking for a simple bible reader this application should be enough. Some will complain that they can get the same feature-set in a free bible app, others rebut that its ability to make text big and easy to read more than compensates for the high asking price. In any case, you can try the app for 10 days before having to pay the $19.99 one-time registration charge for using the software.
