EDIT: The reason I put in a trouble ticket as opposed to just calling and asking them to pass it along (right) is the the 9550 product documentation on RIM's website has a page on the Main Messages List option. Sooo, I sort of thought I'd take the old "if RIM's advertising it maybe you guys should be offering it" approach. In any event I'm sure there will be a hybrid in the next few days that fixes this and other little stuff.
The missing Main Messages List option is the ONE thing that really irritates me about the Storm 2. LOVED it on the Storm, upgrade to S2 and then it is no more... (BES Mailbox works as a good interim solution).

Don't understand why so many Storm apps available on App World are not available there for Storm 2.

Lastly, has anyone found a way to download and install the CBS SportsLine NFL Fantasy Football App that they say is available for the Storm? Browser must be telling the site that I have Storm 2 and CBS says not supported.

Is there a same version floating around for the 9520 or is that still on 5.0.0.306?

First day in the storm realms so not used to this split personality between the 9500 and 9520.

Thanks

Thumbs down New 5.0 Software Has At Least One Problem

I discovered that the browser contained in the new software has a flaw. One of the websites I need to access won't allow me to drill down into it. A user name and password is needed to get into a certain part of the site. Unlike with the 4.75 software, the 5.0 rejects my personal info and merely brings me back to the page with the personal info windows. I had to revert back to 4.75, even with its flaws.

So what OS is shipped with Storm 2? Or should I expect to see 320 when mine arrives tomorrow.

Smile New Storm 2

I don't know what to expect but I am getting my Storm 2 delivered tomorrow and I will be messing with it all day.

Some of the themes I currently have that work on my Storm, does anyone know if they would be compatible on my Storm 2?

Currently 9530
5.0.0.230

Thanks,

No, that was a desktop manager update... not a phone OS update.
