    head over to mobile.blackberry.com on your BB and you can download BBM(BlackBerry Messanger). As for the Video Camera the update is coming, when I don't know, no one does! When OS 4.5 launches that is what will give the curves Video recording!!

    Most likely you will have to add BBM through DM I don't think you can do it O.T.A. You just need to have the O.S.installed on your computer and re-check BBM.

    I cant even download BBMessenger. I know how to load it through DM. Thats no problem. I heard that you have to reinstall your OS to get BBMessenger back once youve deleted it. If so, how do you reinstall your OS. Like reinstalling your hard drive ... just wiping everything off ... and starting over.

    Just download the O.S. then install it on your computer, then run the application loader and BBM should be on there, just check the box to add it to your BB. Also make sure you remove the one you downloaded O.T.A. on your BB, Options, Advanced Options, Applications, Highlight it, then menu and delete.

    The only other thing I know about is a total wipe of the device, if the above is not working.

    Hmmmm..... I'm stumped!! I mean if you are following my steps then you should be golden! I would do a device back-up and then wipe the hand held and see what that does!
