    Without first receiving the enabling Service Books that are supplied by the dataplan/BIS, I do not think that WiFi OTA will be possible since the phone will have no idea which port to look for downloads.

    BB hybridshas a tool (Downloads, then Operating Software, then Desktop Tools, then BB Hybrids Tool) that will download .jar and make an .alx file you should be able to install via the Desktop Manager. As I have a dataplan, I haven't experimented with it at all.

    The other option, if you can get the .jar file on your computer (not entirely sure how to do this as most theme makers post the .jad which I think somehow links to the .jar), you can copy it to the SD card in your phone (you have one, I hope), and install from there. In 5.0 OS, just use the "Files" application (in 4.5 OS, you can go to Media, click the Applications key, and choose the "Explore" option) to find the .jar, click it, and the Blackberry will prompt to install.
