Anyone know of a free/cheap turn by turn GPS navigation software? I tried the Garmin one, but it has a steep price.

I just put my e71 up for sale to jump back onboard the blackberry train again. This time cause I finally have a data plan. Anyways, before I buy a used Bold, should I phone into rogers to confirm the pin or imei number? Ive heard cases on craigslist where this should be done to ensure you dont buy a sketched out one. Thanks

You definitely should, because there's a chance that the Bold might be a pre-release one and the PIN might not work. Tons of people got jewed when they got a developer Bold

Either that, or I dont see why you wouldnt be able to just walk into a rogers store and get them to run it

Im meeting the seller tonight and by the sounds of it, most rogers stores will be closed. Hes telling me that as long as I register on blackberry.rogers.com for email, everything will be fine after I plug my sim in. I dont think its like that right?

If you're worried about it, just tell him that you'd rather wait so you can have everything done at a rogers store

If he's got nothing to hide he should be fine with waiting
