    Firstly welcome to CB! The best method for info on your lovely new berry is to search the forums and check out the blackberry 101 blog. There are tons of great ideas there. Good luck!

    the user guide you get with the phone IS weak, I agree but if you go to blackberry.com you can search for the real user guide. It's a HUGE document...can't remember how many pages but I think 600-700. That one is far from weak! Good luck!

    I have no idea what you're askin LOL sorry I'm new to the BB just like you...never tried the PIN msging. All i know is that the BB instant messenger can only be used between users who have blackberrys. I tried yahoo IM today for the first time on there and boy was I impressed. IMing is a lot better than I imagined on a BB mobile phone.

    Robin, thanks for the offer

    sorry if I wasn't clear about using the PIN to message between BlackBerrys.... it's similar to Nextel's Direct Connect... where you can communicate except on the BlackBerry it's in text message and in Nextel it's voice......lol..... hope that clears it up.
    I haven't tried IMing on Yahoo's Messenger ..... odes that work on the Curve..... if so.... feel free to message me on it..... my nick is rikthewhip.... whats yours??

    One good thing to do is to enable home screen shortcuts. Just press the green phone button, then the menu key, go to options, general options, and set dial from home screen to no. Click the back arrow and save. Now you can use the keyboard to open things from the home screen. b will launch browser. M for messages. L for calendar. U for calculator. And more
