Question Ancient BB
Yeah so I finally upgraded to an 8900 from the 8700. There are still some things I like about the old one but I'm going to trade it in for $ and now I'd like to wipe it clean or "restore to factory settings." God forbid people see my personal musings and info on the old one. Does anyone know how to clear off an 8700?

Options > Security Options > General Settings > Menu then Wipe Handheld.

This will clear all your user information and such.

Are you registered on a BES? If so. Get software to remove the IT policy ( restrictions ), but also remove the BES emails. If you're registered and just wipe, it can send emails after the fact, etc.
