    Even though the Curve 8330 is "old", will the BB App World be avaliable for the Curve??

    Also, OS 5.0...is anyone sure that it will be released for the Curve 8330 or is it going to be for new devices only?

    O wow that sounds good. Maybe blackberry will beat the iphone in apps. Because I have a blackberry but you can't deny the fact that the iphone has tons of apps, some are cool and usefull and then others are just dumb and you wonder why there is such a app.

    OS 5.0 will be for a lot of device, including the 8xxx series. I believe the latest is 5.0.0.53.

    April 1 has been an idea that was "leaked" Supposedly 5.0 should be the OS for the Curve (as well as every other active BB) and for the computer download software (what's the right term, uploader?) I hope to you-know-who that Apr 1 is the date. And I hope that they can compete readily with iPhones app store. I love my BB, i would choose it over an iPhone 8 days a week. But you have to admit that the iPhone app store walks circles around the apps available for the BB. More exist (though most are for play and not productivity) and they are in 1 place, rather than being spread out over the WORLD wide web.

    But honestly, 1 disadvantage of the iPhone app store is that every app has to go through the app store. I'll pull out Wobble as a good AND bad example. It's a program designed to jiggle, umm... female parts. Good thing is that they edited the program to be allowed in the app store. Bad thing is that they had to edit their program down to get into the app store.

    I want my blackberry to be a PS3, not a Nintendo. I don't need 'mother app store' making sure that I only get things "family safe" I'm my own adult.

    OS 5 will put all devices on the same platform. Get's rid of 4.6 for Bold, etc. and 4.7 for Storm.

    Yeah the only difference would be the .xx number. Some are already .20, .30 builds ahead of others.

    Actually I got that pic from CB, which got it from BGR. But sometimes BGR is right on some things, but most of the time, like you said full of bs.
