    I am a newbie and recently purchasing my BB storm I found the pdf set up instructions to be dismal. Thank heavens I found this forum! I have spent so much time reading posts and learning how to actually operate my bb - whether it is shortcuts or how to's or generally tweaking I have seen the questions and followed the replies and in consequence have changed by bb to my advantage.

    My problem was (and often still is) that I read replies from members very adept at using a bb and they tend to talk very techie. I see "go here" and press "that" and tend to think to myself "where on earth do I find "here" so I think that if someone is obviously a newbie than it would be good to see a reply giving the-cat-sat-on-the-mat instructions or at least some screen shots, but all in all I'm finding my way around my bb and tweaked mine quite a bit simply by reading questions and answers. So thank you everybody and a personal thank you to the members who reply to me as quickly as I have posted a question.

    Welcome to CB. Have you tried using the Newbies section (see tab at top of web page)? BB 101 has incredibly valuable info and relatively simple directions/explanations. I, like you, am a newbie to the BB world, but this site and the Newbies section and the Tips & Trick thread have been a huge help for me.

    I'm haunting the newbies secion as well as reading the other main blog posts! I did try and answer this on my bb but can't clear the keyboard to access the post a quick reply button - so it's back to replying on the XP. I'm getting there but I am so impressed with this forum that I simply wanted to thank the members and admin for their quick replies to me and the help that I have received so far.

    BB 101 is an excellent tool. I read through it before I had my storm and have re-read it and still refer to it!
