    Is there any chance that the Style is going to be getting an update to OS 7?

    RIM has stated that OS 7 will not be available on other legacy devices. However, hybrid builders may build hybrid OS that contain some OS 7 cods, files and programs that you can load onto your device.

    thank you
    I can't believe it! This phone is not that old! Certainly they could have made it upgradeable, seeing that OS7 was so close!

    Then you'd have no incentive to buy a new BB w/ OS7.

    My Understanding (and I'm probably wrong) is that the style just does not have the processor or the memory to run os7.

    I also believe that OS 7 needs at least 768MB of memory.

    Storm2 owners felt the same pain when BB6 was released.

    More specifically, OS7 requires a dedicated graphics processor (as well as faster processor/more ram), which no os5/os6 devices came with. The "liquid graphics" aren't just a software change, it's a software/hardware combination.

    8330m users were burned with os5 only landing for the 8330, and storm owners were burned with the os5 to os6 switch.

    On a side note, it doesn't seem like RIM is looking to have the os7 devices upgrade able to QNX either. But that's just speculation at this point.
