wow rs runs slow on this! | *Change Bluetooth name in Options/Bluetooth/Hit the BB button and go to Options. Device Name is the name of your device.
*PIN is in Options/Status/PIN
*FW is in Options/About. It's the one right underneath where it says Blackberry 9000 Smartphone
*I know 8GB works. That's what I have. It supports SDHC, so I would imagine 16GB is OK. I can't manage to fill 8GB so 16GB might be overkill
Unlocking only gives you the option to use any providers SIM, nothing more.

You want to know your pin?
just type "mypin" without quotation marks and press space afterwards and it'll automatically type in your pin
works really well when you're sending text or emails and you want the other person to add you to bb messenger

is this the most up to date firmware?
v4.6.0.162 (plateform 4.0.0.155)
branding version 1.0.107.193 (i assume for rogers)
sigh, so weird, going from a strong 7 or so of all sonyericsson phones
charger looks similar to motorola charger.
what do u set ur quick launch buttons to?
so far, i set the left one for keypad locking, and the right one for bb messenger...

For my quick buttons,
Since I'm a lefty I have the
Left: Camera
Right: Tab function to swtich between open applications
I know I may have asked this question to death. But how do the fellow RS'ers pimp their bold?
What applications, programs, themes have you installed?
I'm looking for a better weather, stock application

I haven't noticed new features. I guess the only new feature (to be up and coming) is visual voice mail.
BTW, it doesn't make milkshakes - it makes BB Tea.  That's what the BB means! It doesn't mean BlackBerry.
Can you take a picture of teh blue box with white dots? It sounds like the Blackberry Messenger icon (although that's 7 dots and not 4 dots)

As for firmware updates, I've been using .210 for a long time now and its been really stable.
There arent huge differences between versions, but some say menus load faster, phone boots up faster, more available memory etc

But the BB bold is GREAT for when you want it to be stationary while you're cooking, cleaning etc
I believe there are 3 speakers, and the sound is crystal clear
