I was wondering if anyone had issues installing or using the application on their 8830 WE?

Any comments on it would be great too, especially for those that go global.

i don't have an 8830 so i have no personal experience installing it on that device. However, i don't think there would be any issues installing and using Drive Safely on the 8830.

i have this app on my 9630 Global BlackBerry and it's awesome!

Maybe check here for more specific info:

the problem I had with it is that it automatically made me a facebook fan of drivesafe.ly
i thought that was rather intrusive....

i read that from several users. Can you delete them? Or does it keep re-adding you?

i don't have Facebook so i haven't had this issue.

It works great on my 8820. The only thing i hate about it is the price.
