    Help!!

    I have just purchased an 8gb memory card for my curve as advised in store that was the largest card my phone can take. I have connected the device to my laptop and opened my computer to click on the blackberry which then advised i needed to format it before using. So i formatted the card and it now says it has a total capacity of 3.3gb??? This is both in the device properties shown on my computer and on the handset. 3.3bg total space and 3.3 gb free space. Surely an 8gb card should be left with more memory than 3.3gb after formatting??

    You need to be running OS 4.5 in order to see the full 8 GB (it will show 7.6 or so free after formatting.) Earlier OS versions can only see up to 4 GB.
