    Well, sure, Ive done it a bunch of times.. before you start, do a back up.. its easy to recover, people are always willing to help..

    Just take your time and read thru the instructions.. use DM 4.5 or 4.6 nothing higher, this works better.. do not unplug the berry until the end.. DM will tell you once its finished.. takes about 35-60 mins.. youll be fine

    Post if you have any issues..

    You wouldn't want to do that kind of update over the air anyway. Too many possibilities for losing the connection, or just the briefest hiccup in the process, and the phone's a paperweight. That's why even your computer downloads its operating system updates to the harddrive first and then installs them.

    You need to have the Blackberry Desktop Manager installed on your PC. Try the 4.6 version You can get it from blackberry.com Your computer should have no problem if you have the desktop manager software installed. Good luck
