Homie you could have done it all on your own.. In this thread info in doing an OS upgraded was posted, also crackberry.com has threads on resolving issues incase you got any problems.

This thread has disintegrated into nothing more than a complain field where one lodges their angst against the powers that be, (Digicel & Bmobile)

I haven't seen one product review, wallpaper links, theme links, wish lists etc for any BB device-are BB owners really that interested in their devices or are they just "casual" phone users...seems to me as if this place has so few "power users"

I used to laugh at the iPhone section, but good grief man...at least they get more involved in the experience. With the latest news , reviews and iPhone gossip...you guys just seem to be living in the moment, and it only gets active when some n00b comes begging to be accepted into the chat or the service goes down.

Just my casual observation. Peace.

Yup true..

I had alot of apps for my other BB 8120 but since then till now it's been about 2 years since I've had a BB. I'm now getting back into the swing of things so I will post up links etc and new apps available. Not many casual posters in this thread really use the BB to its true potential. Many were given the phones through their company just to make calls and send emails along with the unlimited internet access. Some are restricted from installing 3rd party apps on their devices however their is a way around it :wink:

Well considering Android takes up so little real estate in the TT cellphone market, I'm not surprised that it's semi dead.
I predict that within this year, and next year it will start picking up on a serious level to compete.

You have to understand tho...Android is NEW...relatively speaking.
BB are practically being given away with promotions
...and the iPhone was the game changer.

The HTC Nexus One isn't sold by any local carriers PLUS it's really the OS you should be concerned about, as that HTC hardware is already in the works for an upgrade with the new 1.3Ghz snapdragons around the corner!

de lil iron had his drivin test today so he not even here, dunno when ah will get it back, hit him some clout when i see him.

But Rasc is right, although fo me, after usin the blackberry an gettin accustomed to it, doin anything to it jus bores me, i'll post my themes when i get back my fone if they still there. But the only thing i use it for is messaging an email. HTC for everything else, blackberry is really a borin fone

Those older BB's with their slower processors were NOTORIOUS for crashing and sticking.
The newer ones with the 500+Mhz chips have no such issues.
