...Official BLACKBERRY Thread v.updated...

[af writer]

Picked up the curve today and I absolutely love it.

What are the things as a first time blackberry user that I need to know?

Also, what are the must have apps. I see everyone is gettin Jivetalk, can someone explain to me exactly what that is.

Just upgraded from my old 7250 to the 8830. Verizon's taking too long to get the Curve, and I didn't want to change carriers just to get one. 170 out the door, not too bad. With the exception of the cramped keyboard, it's decent (so far). The track ball is growing on me, R.I.P. scroll wheel.

*Good lookin out Grizzlyboy, just got off the phone w/ Verizon and got that 29.99 plan, saved me 15/month!

Here's the link, scroll down to where it says personal email plans:b2b.vzw.com/productsservices/wirelessemail/voicedatacallingplans.html

I think to do PIN messaging you MAY need a data plan, but don't take my word for it. I'll find out for you though.

I have a curve for AT&T and i unlocked it to use it with tmobile but some pages like wamu and ebay dont load up.

I did the same thing when i had a unlocked 8800 and all pages would load up fine.

I get a message like bad gateway or something like that.

Can anyone help ?

The Pearl is good, I just don't like SureType, I'm a QWERTY guy.

 

[jigsta05]

Question... If i get the T-mobile curve with Wi-Fi, unlock it and use it for AT&T, then I will be able to surf the internet for free whereever there is wireless, but does it tell you when you are using wi-fi or not?

 

[jmoney30]

So if I purchase Intellisync is there a way I can transfer all 460 contacts with a couple clicks of the mouse? Or by "manual" do you mean I will have to type the names and numbers individually into intellsynce or outlook (im not sure) and then be able to transfer them to my BB? If the later is the case is the only hassle you are avoiding is using your BB keyboard to input hundreds of contacts?

Thanks in advance

Can't go wrong with JiveTalk, I have YET to have a problem with it.

Jivetalk was 20 bucks for me... but that was around 5 months ago.

i cant figure out how to send the ringtones through bluetooth.. even though both my mac and bb are paired

Is there a point of getting say a Blackberry Curve with only a voice plan and unlimited text? I do not need the internet and dont plan on spending $30 a monthfor it

There is a specific setting required to enable an Intenet application on a T-Mobile BlackBerry to go out to the Web and not get routed into the BlackBerry network.

* Go to "Options", then "Advanced Options", then "TCP".
* Under APN, enter "wap.voicestream.com".
* Leave "Username" and "Password" blank.

I can't get opera to work for my Curve. I'm trying to get the 4.2 Beta version, but it just says my phone isn't recognized. Anyone else have this problem?
