Just got my first BB (tour), and I need to know about the desktop software. Do I need it, and is it helpfull? What do I need to choose from the drop down menu on the BB web page for the tour? Thanks!
Use the cd that came with your phone and yes you will need it. You will use it to sync, back up , and restore. Some apps you install you can use the dm.

It allows you to add / remove firmware and software from the device. I would also recommend you read the "getting started guide" which is available under the blackberry help button on the top of this page
