Default Shutter on CDMA Phone

Eh, I've sorta given up on trying to find an app that mutes the shutter sound on my 8330's camera but I'm wondering why it can't be done on CDMA phones.

Anyone know? lol.

I think its a privacy issue for all the pervs out there that messed it up for everybody else.

no, blackberry was made for business people. taking pictures in a business setting shouldnt happen, due to privacy issues, so thats why.

My HTC 6800 was able to disable the shutter sound, and it was CDMA....

It can be done on GSM BlackBerry phones. I have no clue as to why they don't work on CDMA BlackBerry phones. Perhaps it's the way the hardware is constructed. An app is out that can somewhat disable it on GSM BlackBerry phones, but mothing for CDMA. I guess it's harder to alter the settings on CDMA BlackBerry phones.
