Anyone know what the new update is for. It's only 2MB. Just downloaded and installed. Didn't see any difference. Thanks for help.

That's what happens if you delete any of the pre-installed apps (gmail, yahoo mail, etc...)

Aaaaaaaaaahhhhh!

Lol, sorry, couldn't contain myself, this question has been posted about 50 times.

If you delete a standard app, shortcut, etc, it will be automatically
re-installed as an update, thus the small update.

Cheers!

Thanks, First time for everything. Why can't we remove the apps we don't want? Has someone figured out how without the returning app update. Please pm me.

No one has figured it out yet, right now RIM is treating the shortcuts as a core app which they didn't before. If you want them gone delete them then do NOT press the software update until you read on crackberry an update has been released (how's that for advertising for crackberry)

Might was well answer publicly - NO, the darn apps will come back until rim gives us a way to either delete or, at least, hide them.

I have.
Say you delete like Browser or App-world what do you do?
Check for updates...
If you delete something you want you just update, it's there to help you.

According to copyrights law, when you purchase a device preloaded with some apps, you are not allowed to delete any of the apps.

Ignore this... it's a pile of bunk.

you guys are all wrong. I got that update too, and it solidifies the water barrier around the bezel that you were all wondering what its for, so yes, your PB is now officially waterproof..

Ummm... and where did you go to law school?

There are just too many things to point out that are incorrect about this statement.

Edit: I think the reason why these apps are reinstalled may be related to the fact that these apps are updated through the OS updates. I never updated word to go yet its been substantially improved through the OS updates.

Reminds me of a song......

Maybe the various purveyors paid rim to include the apps - kind of the rim version of Product Placement (as done on tv). I know MS (Bing) paid Verizon a large fortune to make Bing the default search engine on their phones including my Bold. You cannot even set it up so that google is a choice (you can create a bookmark or get an app).

Hahaha!! That's a very silly premise.

Lol. Two silly replies, and the first was just so outrageous that I will give it the benefit of the doubt and take it that it was meant to be funny like the second.

Is there a good reason that this is still one of the most viewed threads? Can the mods please close this thread already? There are multiple threads of the same question that have already been answered out there...
