    PINS are device specific...new device..new PIN is needed.

    When you get the new berry go to set up email through your service and it will switch so your contacts have the updated pin

    I think (don't quote me) that the dm will put your bbm contacts on your phone when you use the switch device wizard.
    Just ping everyone a message so they know which pin is current.

    If you switch BBs, simply use the Switch Device Wizard within Desktop Manager if you still have BOTH BlackBerrys.

    If not, a simple backup of the old, and restore to the new.

    Go to your carrier BIS website and your account and use the "Change device" or "New Device" link to place the new PIN.

    I haven't seen it as pain, it really is an easy deal, maybe I switch too often.
