I think it's better if we start a seperate BB thread and let the other one stick with iphone users since that was the primary purpose anyhow. We don't need to argue about iphone vs. BB this way...

Scan the following BBM barcode to join the TOTA BBM group:

I noticed they stepped up the BB maps in 5.0 quite a bit. A lot of nice features coming together finally. Proximity without GPS, layering, other small things. Nice

Debating whether to get rid of garmin on it.

The one thing I'm frustrated with my BB is how I can't download certain apps on my Phone!

I have a newer model (8520i) however there are a lot of apps that aren't "compatible" with my phone yet, though I guarantee you if I install it they will work without an issue.

I just have to find the OTA link that doesn't direct me through BB App World!

on my storm there's an option for compatibility mode...

1)use an OTA downloader (such as this: http://www.blackberrysoftwarelist.n...Downloader.aspx)

2)and then "BB Swiss Army Knife"(http://rimgeeks.com/download.php?f=...7_Installer.msi) to install the .jad or .cod (if there's a .alx, you must use the BB desktop manager)


EDIT: you can still do it OTA if it's a .jad file by accessing the weblink on your phone...ie. do step one to get the .jad weblink, then use http://qrcode.kaywa.com/ to translate that link into a barcode (instead of typing out the damn thing on your BB) and scan it using the scanner in BBM which will then ask you if you want to open the link..on doing so, it will ask you if you want to install it, just say yes then.
