Re: Blackberry Tour Replacement
Well, you guys are both incorrect on all 3 counts. I never set foot in a store, made the transaction through over the phone. Not once did I raise my voice, or threaten to switch carriers. My wife had 2 bad FRU's in less than a week. First one didn't hold a charge & the second one didn't power up at all. So I asked what they could do for me, being a 10yr+ subscriber. They offered me every ...
Re: Blackberry Tour Replacement
I know for a fact you swap it out. I got my wifes pink curve swapped out for a storm2, without a contract extension. Like Chris said, be firm & controlled.
Re: The Storm is Over waiting to take a World Tour.
me and you both. :wink:
Movie question...
Since no one answered in the storm forum, I decided to ask here. is it possible to transfer a movie from my ps3 to my storm? /;|
movie playback...
I have about 4 movies downloaded in my PS3. is it possible to transfer them via usb to my storm?
Re: browser gone after update with app. loader
Run the email set-up. Then send your service books. That should do the trick. :wink:
Hotmail?
how the hell do you sync it? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Re: Storm a POS?
I'm not in denial about my storm. It does lag & sometimes freezes. I did remove the VZNav on it. It does run a bit faster because of it as well. Hopefully the updates come ASAP.
Re: Storm a POS?
I agree with you, somewhat. Did the Iphone come out without any bugs? In RIM's defense, their first attempt is on par with the Iphone 2G. I have the Storm myself as well. It has its shortcomings, true. But a POS, false. There is ALWAYS a learning curve to a new phone. I highly doubt first adopters of the Iphone picked it up and had no complaints. Now... Would I consider the Omnia? Probably not. Although the specs on ...
Random Thoughts...
I have, along with thousands of early adopters got a Storm on Friday. That being said, I'm still in limbo. By limbo, meaning stuck with it(got a multiple FRU exchange at the cost of a contract renewal). I'm not a BB guru and yet, not a novice either. I come here to get genuine insight on what has become my new addiction(gym shoe freak, I bought new kicks every week. over 400 pairs of gym shoes). While I really ...
Damn it's cold out here...
Been out front of my VZW store patiently waiting for 8am. To my suprise, there's only 2 maybe 3 people out here. Maybe the reviews had a negative ripple effect. Or people are smarter than me & ordered online.
Re: Thought you knew the price for the storm?
what do you mean?
Re: I'm still getting one!
I'm not. I'll let you know as soon as I have son quality time with it.
Re: I'm still getting one!
I have tomorrow off. I wonder after all these reviews if there will be a line?
Re: I'm still getting one!
I'll be there bright & early. I just may p/u 2 of them.
Re: Storm Availability...
If you don't mind me asking, what city?
Storm Availability...
I 'm not sure if this is correct. Will I be able to walk in to a VZW Corp and pick one up Friday? I've heard conflicting reports. I'm not in the industry, so any help is appreciated. People on BGR are saying direct fulfillment only? does that mean I can walk in and they have to order it and send it to me? Will they have any on hand to sell? Should I just take my chances and ...
Re: BlackBerry OS and Desktop V 4.5
I downloaded 4.5 from the BB site. Pretty nice, the browser is much improved. Like the ESPN page renders totally different now, better. Music player has a mild facelift. I haven't noticed much else though.
Re: BlackBerry OS and Desktop V 4.5
4.3 still on the website. The date says 10-31-08 Just tried it, still 4.3 :( I wonder why they pulled it?
Re: So who's moving to the storm???
Any idea when 4.5 is coming? I'm waiting for the preview party, to make a decision to get one... Who am I kiding, if the stores open early, I'M THERE!!! :lol:
Re: So who's moving to the storm???
You KNOW I am. Maybe after I see what the hell 4.5 does to my curve. :wink:
Re: BB Curve 4.5
The VZW data tech told me to try BB's website for the update. He said if BB puts it out, it was ok for me to use it. But after a few attempts to load it, it said I had the latest version. I've got 4.3. VZW's sites latest is 4.3 too. What am I doing wrong? Need some help here fellas...
Confirmed
I received a call yesterday regarding the storm event. Yes indeed, it is real. Amnesia@Motor City Casino confirmed a VZW Event on 11/6 5-7. Can't wait. Now my only question would be... Would VZW hold these events even IF the phone was already launched? Does anyone think they picked these markets because they are weak, compared to the west/east coast markets? In any case, I'll be getting one regardless.
Re: Guesstimate Storm release date
By all the info I received from the casino, the club is being reserved for the time frame of the preview party. Although they could not tell me what company it's reserved for ,the time frame tells me it's the storm event.
Re: Guesstimate Storm release date
Oh. Well I did sign up & got a confirmation as well. My confirmation email also linked me to VZW Business solutions too. Seemed pretty legit to me, I'll call the casino to check. Thanks for the heads up.
Re: Guesstimate Storm release date
Your logic is flawed. Why would VZW hold "PREVIEW" events from 10/28-11/20 if it is coming out earlier? Keyword is "PREVIEW".
Guesstimate Storm release date
Did anyone else see the sign-up for the touch & feel preview for the Storm? It ranges from 10/28 to 11/20. I just signed up through the links on blackberrynews.com So I would bank on an 11/24 release. So if there's anyone in the Detroit area, I'll see you at Motor City Casino, Amnesia "Makin' it Rain like Pac-man Jones..." Just kiddin' :D Hope this helps nail down the most realistic date.
Re: Thunder Question.
Can't a guy ask a simple question anymore? Geez... Sometimes you guys take things way too personal.
Thunder Question.
Since it's supposed to be a global phone, couldn't you just pop in a ATT or T-MO sim? It would have both EVDO & HSPDA radios in it right? How exclusive is it, really? I was just wondering.
Geezzz...
My first curve was great up until last week. It rebooted itself say... 3 to 4 times a day. CS sent me a new one. the one they sent, the ESN wasn't logged into VZW data base. That's #2. the 3rd one they sent, the browser didn't work properly. finding this out after 1 1/2hrs with tech support. So I will receive another FRU on tuesday. How many FRU's do they send me until I get a "NEW" one? ...
Re: Otterbox case
HOLY SH#T!!! this case makes it the size of 4 cd cases. I baby my phones. I though it would be like that 2 piece case mate... Boy was I wrong. I do see the purpose for it though, not exactly for a hospital setting. I should've asked someone here before hand, like Chris said :oops: It's going back with a Moto H12.
Re: Otterbox case
in retrospect, yea. but on their website it looks pretty nice. I have 30 days with it anyway.
Otterbox case
Anyone have one? I just ordered one. Some input please. :wink:
Re: Blackberry Curve
yes. it's called threaded messaging.
Re: Blackberry Thunder in Nov!!!!!!!!!!
count me in... Mine and my wifes. :wink:
Happy 4th to all...

Re: Sprint 8330 or Verizon 8330
Seems like you're minds made up already. Why would you ask for input in the first place? Redundancy is making a comeback... :wink:
Re: this is embarassing...
I for one wouldn't laugh. I'm a newbie to the curve(blackberry in general). What exactly did you do? /;|
Re: Curve or XV6900
I've had them both, kept the curve. Curve, definitely...
