Dubya,

Yes I took notes. Better yet, I'm going to print out the lectures so I can study every class after work.

Great lecture Kevin! Very informative. I look forward to Mondays now!

Thank you very much!

Kevin,

A few months ago I received in the mail a course for $750 or $850 for classes to learn about the blackberry. I don't recall what company was offering it because I tossed the paper out. Since belonging to this forum, there was no need to join those classes.

And now you have given us all the best gift ever: free lessons to learn more about the blackberry! You really are priceless Kevin and I thank you again for these lectures. We all think you are awesome...........well I do anyway!

Gia

Thanks, Kevin! I'm glad I sat in on the lecture! Can't wait for Part II, although I already have and love and obsess over my 8830.

Great class Kevin!

I use to dread Mondays at work because it's always a zoo but now that you have these classes, I find Mondays most enjoyable and informative!

The guest speaker for lessson 2 was great, and the speech on BES vs. BIS was very informative. That's great there will be more classes! I can't wait until Wednesday! :-)
