    Why does Blackberry.com want so much info when you want to download something.. I left my CD with my BB Desktop Software at work and I want to install it on my new Comp I threw Vista Ultimate on and they want all this damn info just to download the software... Why? How much crap info do they have in their database cuz they just got some more

    Cuz they want to make sure that they can send you as much spam as they can later on down the road.

    The complaints are justified IMHO RIM releases programs so full of bugs and are slow as **** with releases.. The complaints wouldn't be here if things ran smoothly or at least somewhat smooth.. Not saying I hate the company but they produce s**t and then try to mold it into a sculpture sometimes.. :shrug

    I'm not expecting perfection but I was expecting something smoother... I'm sticking with it i like the Storm but I'm surprised they haven't had minor software releases to fix bugs before a major release..

    We'll see I'm still debating on upgrading to a beta OS

    I'm pretty sure that it's not RIM holding up the OS upgrades. As was stated in the other section, RIM is already working on releases in the 4.7.0.18x range. If you want to blame anyone, blame the carriers for not pushing the releases through their approval process faster. Even better, take matters into your own hands and upgrade to a leaked OS. 114v3 is leaps and bounds beyond .75

    Off topic. Congrats on your new status. Also, love the Steve Miller reference in your sig.

    Back on topic. I joined(again) BBF and noticed the information request. I'll probably cancel mine. I hardly ever go over there. As far as the complaining- especially those that like to talk sh8t.

    I think it's funny how some become online.....



    and if you saw them in person.......

    I agree! Some people try to act keyboard tough but when you're in their face they don't have sh*t to say!
    Lol.

    I don't know. We should all just be happy with our BBs! and just fix EVERYTHING with battery pulls! Lmao.



    Haha yeah way too many fields to fill in ... can't we just login or something instead of filling things in.

    I've only done it once. Everytime I have gone back it's automatic filled in!
    I heart my computer! Woot!

    ok, so in reference to the original question, yes they do ask too much information, but you don't have to give it to them, put in anything who cares.

    In regards to people ******** too much, yes we do, now stop ******** about it!!

    In reference to beer, best damn invention in the history of history,

    In reference to women, really close second, gets even closer with the help of beer.

    And about the tequila shots and women, as long as you're gone before you sober up, no one will ever know!!!!

    did I miss anything??

    EDIT: ah yes, I missed the really weird, creepy, he-she thing laying in the tropical nerd haven...um, I really have nothing to say on that apart from...icky.
