Desktop Manager 4.3 Officially Available

Desktop Manager version 4.3 is now out on the Vodafone site...

BlackBerry® from Vodafone - Software Download

I guess this might make it an "official" release?

Nice official find

To me, and that's just me, until I can get it here, then it's not 'official'...

If I officially have it....it's official. I don't have a preference where I get it....as long as it works.

Anything significant in the new version?

As quoted above, seems that this url doesn't link straight from RIM to download but from their ftp (ftp2.smartone-vodafone.com). File Transfer Protocol, if my memory serves me right, this is how I drag and drop my huge files to my server. Which means it isn't RIM's, right? Or is there something that I do not understand about FTPs?

TMobile doesn't host their OS and DM upgrades on RIM's site. Does that mean they are not official?

That link is to an official carrier release.

OMG, you think it could a fake?

I was just saying; ok already, it's official...

i'm with naviwilliams ... until i see it on a RIM website its not an "official" launch ... but IMHO i think that they prob just released it out to the carriers and somehow this link got put out before RIM wanted it to for the general public ...

This is being released because the 8120 is being released. I'm guessing that Verizon will be posting this version as well very soon to go with their 8130.

That doesn't mean it doesn't have bugs, though.

HAHAHAHA, yeah navi. I'm with you. Okay already

That is so funny!!!

Anyway, let us not argue about this since this is really irrelevant. Unless I am getting a cut for promoting this (negative or positive), I ain't staying in this subject. Now let's dance!
