BlackBerry Protection at its FINEST.

  • I think the new OS 5.0.0.140 is great. Of course, I was stuck with verizon never updating anything for months and that first version of the OS was buggy and slow. Finally just got a good link for BBM 5.0 and got it working. Can live without facebook by just checking it in the browser, which is faster now. Like all the new features, including Vibe and Ring. Also, like how you can click the signal bar on the home screen to Manage Connections, and same shortcut for clock. Have to say I'm sticking with it despite being beta. More options and runs smooth for me. Only complaint was the quincy app he mentioned in the video would send out 8 emails or so in an hours time, so uninstalled the internal apps in control panel on computer and fixed that easily.
