I downloaded the new BOLT and the JAD file to set up to make BOLT the default browser. Haven't figured out where it is. Anyone knows how?

I downloaded it and the BB Launcher it says to download to make Bolt the default browser. When I click on a Youtube video, it immediately switches to the BB browser. How do you get a Youtube to play through Bolt?

Nope, doesnt seem to be an option. When I click on a link, I get the menu and the ability to open up whatever browser I want. This is actually better than having it open up automatically because all OTA downloads need to be opened up in the native browser.

I just noticed that some email links dont give me the option to open up a link in the browser of my choice, not sure what is required to enable that.

Yes it does seem a reboot is required. Working fine now.
It doesn't seem to be perfected though some links in my email still open in BB browser.

Apparently I didn't have BBM5. I never used it so I didn't notice. What does that have to do with this working?

BOLT as a browser only works if you are using plain text or sms links.

Here is what I figured out. The launcher works, but only for plain text email hyperlinks. When you receive an email with a HTML link click your blackberry button and select "get plain text" , this converts the email to a workable format, and now the options for "open with bolt", "open with opera mini" should appear when you click the link. This is a slight nuisance work around, but it is still helpful especially when trying to open a large web address with lots of images.
