Till recently, Lahore-based pepper.pk's photo editor application for Blackberry devices was among the top five selling applications on RIM's App World.
Earlier this week, it was voted the best.

The news is being celebrated in the real and the virtual world.
"Pakistan's IT industry has come a long, long way... pepper.pk's laudable achievement proves that not only are Pakistan-based software companies ultra-competitive, they are, quite literally, second to none," read a note on pakteahouse, a popular ezine.

Another alert in the virtual world read: "(pepper.pk) has hit it out of the park with their latest photo editor suite for Blackberry devices.
