but that is EXACTLY what i did. backed up my bold then i removed BBM 5 like any other application via options > advanced options > bb > delete. after that a simple reboot and bbm was gone. boot up DM with bb plugged in and went to apploader and i was able to select to install BBM 4.6. proceeded and restored my contacts. never had to reload an OS onto my phone to get BBM 4.6 back.

Gave it a shot, I cleaned it off yesterday with a cotton towel by rubbing it around. It seemed to have helped. Hopefully with your method, it will go away for a while now.

I just talked to Digital Communications (formerly Celtek) on Friday. My current contract is expiring and I'm thinking about signing another three year deal.

I don't know why phone companies always give better incentives to new customers instead of trying to keep their existing ones happy. It costs 10x more to get new business than it does to keep existing customers.

Anyways, if I were to renew my contract and keep my number I am going to pay $299 for the phone (aka Joe Blow on the street can walk into any Rogers dealer and get the same deal.)

However, Celtek offered it to me for $199 over a 3 year term if I signed a new contract with a new number. I'm going to drop by a few more places tomorrow to see what other dealers might offer before I call Rogers to tell them I'm cancelling my existing number.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm thinking about getting the $50 student plan Rogers just released so I hope I can get the Bold for $99 as well...

Went to TBooth today to check out the $99 Bold another member mentioned.

The price is going to be different from account to account. They wanted to charge me $349 with a $50 credit (net $299.)

Not sure if anyone else has been keeping up on the 9700, probably the bold 2.
