    You can read through a ton of other users' findings on .53 in the OS Beta forum. Here's the link to the thread over there...

    Just remember that .53 is a beta and, as stated clearly on the CB homepage, you should therefore install at your own risk.

    SMS messages are limited to 160 characters on CDMA carriers like Verizon. In order to send longer messages, you'll need a third party app like Beyond160, which you can find in the CrackBerry App Store.

    Frankly, if you don't have Beyond160 already installed, then I'm completely surprised that you've been able to send longer SMS messages on your Tour in the past...or was that in reference to a different device?

    It's more than likely that you hit compose MMS which allows you to include infinitely more information in one message. I'll use it if i know that I need to compose a large message. But more often than not ill just use SMS format...

    people have been reporting that sometimes they can send pages of sms, once in a blue moon though. people have been saying this for some time. not sure if i believe it, but that is what they have been saying.
