Just wanted to thank you for the awesome lessons! All the lessons have been so informative and I've learned more than I did when I read the manual.
A lot of time and effort has been put into these lessons and I just want to thank Kevin and all the people that are responsible for making these lessons possible for taking the time out of their busy schedules to share their knowledge with all of us. We are all truly grateful for your kindness!

I have been searching and searching various sites to help with my issue to no avail... Also, forgive how I am posting my question....I'm a newbie when it comes to posting in forums!

When we are viewing the weather radar, we cannot get the radar to animate, it is fixed. Does anyone know how to get the weather radar to animate on the BB 8830 WE?

Hey Guys,

No BlackBerry 101 Post today... was out of town from Thursday to late last night and am now playing some serious catch up - have to get my Round Robin iPhone final impressions up today and get CrackBerry.com's December Contest ready to announce for later this week (you're gonna be BLOWN away by it).

Lots of snow outside where I'm living...so we'll say Class is Canceled and call it a SNOW DAY.

Thanks for the understanding! We'll get up a good lecture for next week. Big thanks to James for covering for me while I was gone!

[DubyaEl]

Snow day it is, Kevin!

We're supposed to get a dusting (about an inch). Full BMT alerts in the area (bread, milk, toilet paper). This former Minnesota gal just laughs!!!

[berrywhite]

Will be waitin on next week!!

i went through the lessons, but did not find the topic that helps me with my issue

ok, so i recently traded my treo 700wx for a blackberry world edition - and i LOVE it - BUT the guy who had the phone before me somehow set it so the trackball does NOT click/choose. you have to select stuff w/the trackball, and then hit 'enter' off the keyboard to actually choose it/make it happen.

i don't like it! i want my trackball to click/choose instead of having to hit 'enter' everytime i wish to choose something

needless to say, i have combed EVERY inch of the phone and canNOT figure out how to change this setting.

i have looked thru OPTIONS and the keyboard setting - you can change the sensitivity of the trackball, but not option to make it doubleclick again (((sigh)))

the guys at verizon even reset everything to the default settings on the phone (which wiped out the previous owners emails and whatnot), but that did not restore the double-click to the trackball.

HOW.CAN.I.FIX.the.TRACKBALL???

heeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllppppppppppppppp!!!

[dmoore]

i downloaded some apps to my computer and uploaded them onto my 8703e and now it wont reset. It goes from white screen with a hourglass to black then back to white again its been doing this for about 20 minutes and I dont know what to do. Can anyone help me?

[Kevin Michaluk]

Trying to get today's lecture done....but been getting crushed by emails (12 days of crackberry, holiday themes, round robin).... hopefully up this afternoon, if not, it may be a wednesday lecture this week.

Putting some effort into the content schedule/focus for the new year. Come 2008 we're going to be on the ball with the best content (and timely content!) ever. thanks for the patience class

[wisecrone]

Hello, I have just bougth a blackberry 8830 to use in New Zealand. I need to make calls via Jajah.com. I have downloaded the bbcalls software, but when I try to call a number out of my adress book it tells me that there is a parameter missing. Is there a way I must enter numbers in my adress book in order to make calls via Jajah.com? Thanks Wisecrone
