    Hi Roger and thanks for taking the time to help. I am not sure what "ota" means. Can you explain it please? UP

    OTA is short for Over The Air. If available, you can browse to a site to download the game with the BB browser and click on the download link. The game will then install on your BB. You can also copy the link using a computer web browser and email it to your BB. Open the email and click on the link.

    Thanks Jorb, for your reply. I will try to find a PC friend and do as you say. Please tell me though, what is "q2 or q3"? Does that mean 2nd quarter or 3rd quarter of the year? Then there is hope of something for mac users. UP

    x-a-lent advise. I have the games as files someone has shared with me and will try to send them to bb. I turned off the bb set up to get get online for now. (Budget crunch) Might I be able to do something through the blue tooth? I could also, I suppose, have Tmobile activate internet for a few days so I could do so....Do you think there is a wa y to do it through blue tooth. again - Many thanks, UP..Such a nuB I M

    You cannot install applications via Bluetooth. And if you don't have a BlackBerry Data Plan, then you won't be able to install them OTA either.

    Yes I am seeing that after all the wonderful help I need to hook into a PC or get service if only for a short time to get the job done. Thanks for responding.
