Oronte, I'm using EDGE on MTN and am still on the original OS.

Link to Kindle app: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.ht..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1R6CYTY3S3G4MG0ZWS7X

This link will take you to a field where you can enter your e-mail address. A BB link will then be issued to your e-mail address. Ignore the "not available in SA messages".

 

[BeVonk!]

The Kindle books are very small so EDGE is more than adequate.

Note: Don't try to buy books over your BlackBerry (unless you've got a US address registered with Amazon). Buy books using the Kindle PC app (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.ht..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1M65FQY1DH7M1J7HMAN8) and then send it to your BlackBerry from the download page provided directly after the purchase.

Ubertwitter 9.7 is out. Notifications seem to work better now.

A couple of my favourite apps:
BBNotepad: text editor, hooks itself to the "P" shortcut key if you don't use dialling from home screen.
Wallpaper Changer: not free ($3), but damn nice. Changes your wallpaper at specified intervals. I have 250+ wallpapers.
Start Me Up: Auto-starts designated apps when the phone boots up.
SmrtGuard: The free version can do stuff like tracking the phone, making emergency calls/SMSes/emails (with location), and alerting you when another SIM is used in the phone.
BuzzMe: disco alert light on phone calls.
AppListing: can save/email a complete list of all your apps.
SMS Backups: emails a copy of every SMS sent/received.

It seems that Opera Mini 5 is now official. No more beta testing. Working well with my 8520.

Works fine for me too, but I can't increase the font size so as to be readable while I'm driving. How annoying.

 

[oronte]

You really shouldn't be reading and driving anyway.

Mine *is* on large. I need an XXL! The Beta had a bigger font.

There was an update to Opera 5 that fixes the font sizes; re-download it, even though it says it's the same version.

Hi there, I'm a new BB user so please forgive ignorance!

Do you all use the "Documents to Go" as a document editor? I would like to download one or two small Excell spreadsheets to keep handy on my BB and forward to my Recruits when asked for an application form. Will save me a lot of time to do it while on the go rather than wait until I'm in front of my laptop again.
I can't seem to download documents until I pay for the premium "Documents to go"..
any ideas?

Kind Regards
Jenni

 

[oronte]

I don't understand there should be no problem in downloading documents. You can't create new documents until you get premium (although you can create a blank on your PC and save it on your phone).

 

[Little Leo]

Ahh you're right, just need a little more trying out, thanks!

I had received an error message (java.lang.NullPointerException) on one of my documents and that's why I assumed I needed the premium.. blonde chick moment, sorry!

My bad! Thanks for your help.

 

[oronte]

No worries. I did similarly silly things when I first got my berry too. Once you get used to it you'll be flying.
