made my phone buggy

I upgraded last night.

My tour has become a total effing nightmare to do the most simplistic tasks (example: clicking links).

I have wiped my phone twice and done 100 soft resets.

I am going to go home and downgrade, then upgrade again to see if it helps.

Is there anybody that it is working well for?

I upgraded a couple of months ago but I am on alltel I havent noticed any problems with it (version:5.0.0.419)......

Mine too...can't use one touch features like r for reply or f for forward. BB and Verizon say theres nothing they can do. Must be something-it's one of their best features

No bugs on mine, smooth as a...

I just downloaded it. Ive had 3 software versions and so far this one has the best potential. I seriously dig the new sms/mms app thats laid out like Im, grouping my messages based on sender. long time coming. I havent had a chance to get exposed to all the new improvements, but smoothness does seem to be a benefit.

Ive head some guys are saying its buggy. Try doing a system restore on the blackberry, MINUS your sketchy apps, like downloaded oddball themes. Its been my experience some themes are problematic and clash with the OS. Run your Tour in the standard theme for a bit and see if you still have bugs.
