    Hi everyone! Now that i have my first BB for 3 days, i am completely addicted, however i am also very tech challanged.

    I added my email, i separated cute little folders for text/mms; emails; missed calls, etc. I synched with outlook (calendar and address book)!

    What's next? There seems to be so much on this phone and i am not sure where to go (how do i download cool stuff, fun stuff, etc, better yet, how do i do it for free)!

    Any suggestions would be appreciated (and please, if you do give suggestions, could you give full directions as i am not sure what i am doing with this phone half the time)

    Thank you

    A... and when you get done as Chaz has suggested, get a cup of coffee, sit back and read as much as you can here. Just 4 short months ago I was brand new to BB. Now look at me! I almost know as much as Gadget!

    Oh and welcome to CB!

    NEVERMIND figured it out! oooooooo i am looooooooving this toy!

    question: i just uploaded google maps, but i also have the BB maps as well, should i delete the BB maps (i am a little nervous about deleting things on my phone as i dont know what half of them mean) For example, i also have cellebrite phonebook (no idea what that is), should i just delete it, and if so how?

    Thank you,

    Cellebrite phonebook is what the they use to transfer data from one phone to another. I don't think you will need it. And if you do end up getting a new phone they will reinstall it and transfer everything for you.

    It can stay, it won't hurt. But you can delete if you want. No harm will be done.
