    Does the Chinese version mean it displays everything in CHINESE? Or, is it that the product is from China, but in the English language???

    Thanks, Click! One more question. Given the size of the file, is there plenty of memory on the Curve to do the upgrade without a memory card?

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks (again) Click! One LAST question--I hope. How do I find the file to delete. I know you have instructions that it's C etc--how do I find that line to delete the vendor part?

    Click, I'm on AT&T. Will doing this upgrade cause AT&T specific settings to be deleted? I'm wondering about things like email service books, etc. Also what about my personal settings; ringtones, icon order, theme, etc? Will that get all messed up?

    It won't add features, but may fix bug that the last issue had.

    To soon to tell for me, but I'm still a new BB user so I'm not sure that I'd know anyway.

    Been running this OS for a couple of days and here are the minor changes I have noticed.

    1. No more allowed/offered to delete email from your server inbox.

    2. GPS signal acquisition is A LOT faster.

    3. Free file is bigger. (Could be from me editing installed files)

    4. Switching between programs seem to be faster.
