There�s a selection of resources to help users get to grips with social networking and IM tools such as Facebook and Google Messenger. A so-called Exclusives area will also display offers and discounts on related hardware and software, while a news centre aims to keep you updated on all things BlackBerry.

Although there�s no executive washroom, users can customise the lounge according to their BlackBerry model, industry sector, usage and interests. You can apply for membership online and annual membership is free.

Here's also the North American link for the lounge:

Yay, another service us here on the Moon (aka Australia) can't use...

I haven't been able to get in. I keep getting error messages. I'm in contact with RIM, but they haven't been able to fix it yet.

V... which one you trying? The one posted by Berryman or Gadget?
I got in no problem. Gadget's is the one you want the other is for Europe.

It was GG's link....tried it on 3 different browsers...still couldn't even set up an account!

[Member_No.1]

Oh... I thought you were trying to log in. I could with the US site, but it didn't have me as a member in the Europe site. Must be different data bases. Where you ever able to get in?

[VZWBBnewb]

Pete...nope...still can't even register. When I go to the "Join Now" page, I start to register, then it has me register again, where this time, I can see page 2 of the registration, when I hit "submit" it just takes me back to page 1 of the registration...

Very frustrating indeed!

[Berryman]

I assume that you are attempting to register via your PC? It's worth deleting all your temporary internet files first, then making another attempt - though I have now just read that you have tried three different browsers, so my expectations fade.

Can anyone in the US sign up for this thing?

[Member_No.1]

K2, There is a North America Lounge. Not sure if you can sign up for the Europe one.

OMG! I was finally able to register!!!

[jjohnson311]

I wasn't able to register from the U.S. website. After I entered all my signup info and clicked next it just reset the signup page and dumped all my info. Any ideas?

This is exactly the problem I was having until last night.

I don't know what happened, but I emailed them to complain and suddenly I was able to register about 3 days later.

wait, I dont get it. The Lounge has been opened for months hasnt it? I looked at this thread on my BB and since it ddoesnt show dates I figured it was an old thread that someone just brought back. Now I see that its a new thread. But why?

Nope, "The Lounge" is brand new.

I was able to register and then log in for NA site no problem.

[fergiej]

I just keep getting 404 errors when I hit next from the registration page. I guess I'll email them. This is a bit annoying.

[dave_sz]

im not seeing anything new that i didnt see last month, what is new exactly?

[fergiej]

As soon as I posted above, I tried IE instead. Worked fine. Their page does not like Firefox. Whatever. Frankly, it seems a waste of time. There's not really anything overly valuable here. I guess I can check it once a month or so to see if anything changes, but for now, meh.
