>FWIW the nearest equivalent here to a Blueberry is called (at least locally) a Whinberry. Fruits in late summer on the higher, heather fillled, hills, is about a quarter of the size and it takes hours to pick enough to make a pie. But they make Blueberries taste like s**t (g,d&r)

Probably what you've got are these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilberry

Around here there are lots of farmed blueberries - and I agree, they are pretty tasteless. But there are wild blueberries which can be freely picked in many places - even the North Shore mountains. They, too, are small but flavourful.

My theory is there is the same amount of flavour in any single blueberry, no matter its size :)
