    First off welcome to our crazy world.

    As far as 5.0 operating systems go, Verizon just made 5.0.0.328 official, so I would say that is the suggested build to use, however I myself have downgraded to 5.0.0.323 until my storm2 gets here on monday. I seem to have alot less bugs with .323 and everything seems to run smoother. Every one of our storms performs just a little bit different so you may have to try a couple different builds to find the one that is best for you. There are several links at the top of this thread: http://forums.crackberry.com/f86/ask...ouncil-327192/ that would probably be helpful to you.

    As for must have apps, blackberry messenger, facebook, myspace, and google maps are the ones that immediately come to mind although there are now a couple thousand apps for our phones. Check out this link: http://forums.crackberry.com/f134/bl...a-apps-236712/ for a bunch of apps that you can download OTA(over the air) by simply pointing your browser to that thread and clicking on the name of the app. Hope this helps, if you have any issues please feel free to post in the first thread I mentioned and we will be glad to help you.
