Oooh where'd you get the gelli case? If it doesn't collect the fuzz I might have to invest in it!Here's a pic or two of my new baby:

Here's a Case Mate Gelli case. A bit firmer than a regular silicone skin and doesn't collect the fuzz and smutz that Moonlessnight and I were kibbutzing about a few days ago:
Note that even though this case mate case was for the 9630, the usb port cut out is almost perfect and is not obstructed at all!

On another note, now that everyone has had a reasonable chance to look at and settle their phones a bit...those of us who received them...do you feel any better about them?
I mean, I don't know about you, but the first night I had mine, I was like a fish outta water. I was almost to the point of tearing my hair right out of my head. I felt like I was caught between two universes! My old phone was NEVER gonna be good enough anymore but the new one was NEVER gonna be set up the way I wanted and was never gonna feel comfortable. It has taken a few days to almost feel comfortable with it, anyone else know what I mean?
06-06-10 05:30 PM - I know what you mean...coming from a storm and going back to a key board which I love . Took until today but I have it set up with apps and all the way I want it. Even found a new theme that put the finishing touches on this phone.Moonlessnight, I bought the case right from Case Mate:

jaydee, Your phoe is cool, great for such a sweet lady. Give it time, a jump as big as you took to your newborn 9650 is pretty big and will take a few days to get used to. You'll probably change the setup several times before you get it to its final configuration. Just use a littel of your wonderful patience.
I'm still jealous of all of you with the newly birthed Bolds!!!
06-06-10 06:15 PM - Thank you for the link! I'm browsing Tour 9630 cases on Amazon right now since I'd ideally like to get one before I go to California, but if not the black holster will suit me just fine for the time being.Moonlessnight, I bought the case right from Case Mate:

It took me a day or two to adjust to the trackpad and the sensitivity and such. By lowering it down to 60, though, it's easier for me to use. I'm still getting the hang of some of the features and what not since I'm relatively new to BlackBerry, but this is leaps and bounds better than my LG Voyager. Poor guy literally snapped! It's a bit of a learning curve, but I had a Tour 9630 for a month and absolutely loved it (aside from the ball that started to stick toward the end!) so I'm very pleased with this one. It feels better in my hand than the 9630 did.
I think by the end of... hmm.. two weeks you'll be so much more in love with it.06-06-10 06:34 PM - Well, I feel a bit better since I have been able to get some of my apps back on that I haven't seen in quite a while. I had to dump quite a few apps from my Curve because of the problems with the OS. I also discovered how easy using BBSAK is and how I can add individual .cod files to my phone to put back one app at a time.
If you've never used the program it's a great way to save your installed 3rd party apps.
It feels good to have all my apps back on my phone at once instead of backed up in a file saved on a laptop for "someday"06-06-10 07:45 PM - Just looking at the post count for this thread and the lovely Jay Dee's post count...it'd be very fitting for Jay Dee to post her 1,000th post as the 6,000th post on this thread...
I'm growing more and more accustomed to my Bold with every hour... battery life seems to be a lot better today for me as well!06-06-10 07:54 PM -
If I remember correctly, from the days that I taught computer tech courses, the Lithium batteries take a few charges to get to their full capacity. This is why the manufacturors recommend charging for 24 hours before use as that begins this process and I think makes it happen more quickly. Not charging is not going to hurt the battery, will only take longer to get to full capacity.
Lithium batteries don't develop memory so you can charge them at will; however, at my age you do develop memory (loss) so please forgive me if I stated some of the above incorrectly. ALthough i don't think I did...Last edited by BoDeb; 06-06-10 at 10:17 PM.
