    Default New owner of the 9790

    I just broke down this weekend and upgraded from Curve 9360 and noticed they both run the same OS 7.1.0.336 but the Bold does not have Free FM Radio like the Curve 9360 does...
    I hope that will change i kinda liked the option of no WIFI or DATA plan needed for that option...
    In hopes that will change soon....

    That won't change, because the 9790 doesn't have the built-in FM radio hardware. Only the new Curves have this.

    You are on Rogers and the 9790 came loaded with 7.1? Did you buy new or from someone who already loaded 7.1?

    I thought Rogers pushed 7.1 for 9900 but not yet for 9790, and could not find it in the DTM either.

    How did you find that out? the original Curve 9360s original OS7 did not have FM either till the OS 7.1 came out then all these other extras came with it like G4 or H+..
    I figured if they had the same OS i was thinking they should have the same options....
    Well thanks anyways for the info...if this is 100% true then i`ll SOL...

    The new Curves always had the hardware... OS7.1 software just activated it.
    The 9790 never had the hardware in the first place.
