    This is official I spent quiet a bit of time with AT&T, Blackberry Corporate Technical Support and personal research. The maximum size limit for a media (Audio) file to be emailed to your blackberry is 500k and video attachment should not be supported, especially if over 500k. Apparently BIS or BES this limit is there. As far as other files go, whether pdf, powerpoint, text there SHOULD be no limit (I have personally been able to open a 4mb powerpoint presentation through os 4.5.0.42) but through the memory limit of your device...of course. This goes along with why there is no html email viewing with the new 4.5 os, because the Blackberry Internet Service will be updating "within a few months," the BB tech guy informs, to 2.5 - probably coinciding with the official release of 4.5 os (DID YOU HEAR THAT!?!?! A FEW MONTHS!!! sooo sad ). The BB tech believes that since the video will be enabled on the blackberry devices, this new IS 2.5 should allow 1. video attachment and 2. larger media file attachment to compliment the upgrade.


    FYI - I have been trying to send a 8mb BB Curve made video file to someone who also has a black berry curve - we both have 2gig mem chips and both are using 4.5.0.42 os, these are my trials and failure:
    1. MMS - Failure
    2. Black Berry Messenger - Failure
    3. Email to [email protected] from computer - Failure
    4. Email to self from same and other email from computer then open and download from email in browser - Failure
    5. Download from Opera Mini - Failure due to download initialized from browser
    6. File drop - Failure
    (Note: In Menu the file does not provide option to send besides Bluetooth)

    So in regards to sending someone else a file this large who has a blackberry is not going to work unless you:
    1. Exchange memory cards
    2. Break down the file and send in increments
    3. Blue tooth Maybe...
    4. Desktop manager...of course


    Hope this has proved helpful to those that have had this problem!
