    I know a lot of you have been trying to get the E-Trade Mobile Pro app working on your 4.5.x devices. Here is the solution.

    Click on this link FROM YOUR BB:

    https://mobile.etrade.com/mobilepro/...eMobilePro.jad

    Install as normal. When the application tries to restart the phone to complete installation, you will get an error. Ignore it and do a battery pull and you will be good to go. Working fine for me on my 8310 running 4.5.0.44.

    Hope this helps.

    is that link valid for 4.2 operating system, i.e. is it the "normal" etrade mobile download link?

    I can't download this app to save my life!! I've gone to both etrade.com/mobile and mobile.etrade.com. The page comes up fragmented, I'm not sure if I have my curve set to properly display the page but I can't seem to find the download mobile pro link. Then I've tried to navigate to this page so I can click on the link in the original post for an OTA download. But when I go to crackberry.com, I get the toolbar at the top and then a listing of the most recent postings. No matter what I click thats all it displays. Any ideas?

    well I think I figured it out. I went to general browser options as i felt I just didn't have the browser configured properly. So go to the browser, then options, then configuration. I checked the following boxes: support java script, terminate slow running scripts, support html tables, use foreground and background colors, use background images, support embedded media and support style sheets. The "show images" is set to wml and html, emulation mode is blackberry and content mode is set as wml&html. Then i went back to the etrade page and it worked fine.

    That's strange I managed to install it, but the applications cannot connect to the server. I get the Error code that says that could not establish connection, I have tried several times at different days and nothing.
    Anyone having this same problem?

    I had problems so i e-mailed it to my phone and it worked then i realized i never put the s after the http so that is probably what caused the problems. If you keep having problems just e-mail it to your phone and it's a definite fix

    I wrote E*Trade to address this subject yesterday:

    To whom it may concern:

    I represent many E*Trade Mobile Pro users that have upgraded to OS 4.5 on their BlackBerry Pearl and BlackBerry Curve devices. Please respond with E*Trade's plans to support this OS by upgrading their Mobile Pro platform. Also, when is support for the BlackBerry Storm anticipated. Your response will be shared with very many E*Trade Mobile Pro users that have upgraded to the more stable OS 4.5. Thank you.

    Kent (in behalf of a large group interested in this issue.)

    They responded with this:

    Dear Mr. ...,

    Thank you for your message regarding Mobile Pro access for OS 4.5.

    We are targeting late next week for the E*Trade Mobile Pro update for Blackberry OS4.5 users. Please keep in mind we are putting this release under great scrutiny and stress testing to ensure it is up to standard. If we deem those tests to be a complete success, the update will be released. Otherwise, there is always the possibility of a delay.

    The Blackberry Storm, due to inherent differences in how you interact with the phone and the OS, unfortunately has a slightly longer timeline. For this device, we have targeted early 2009.

    I am confident you want nothing but a polished platform, and that is what we will deliver. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thank you.

    For future inquiries you can visit our Online Service Center, it is the fast & easy way to get answers to all your questions. You can also reach us by phone at one of our phone numbers located at etrade.com/contactus. As always, we appreciate the opportunity to serve you.
