    F2 you're d-a-m-n lucky you ARE at the other end of the continent! Otherwise, I'd come looking for you with my full bottle of "gun" and you could give me limes!!!

    See what happens when I am upset? I can't type. You guys will never let me live that one down I guess. I can't even go back and correct it cause it wouldn't be funny anymore!
    There are any number of reasons why I'm lucky "dammed" or otherwise that I live on this end of the continent. Bottles of guns being one of them.

    And, even reading your "I can't even go back" gave me a nice chuckle.

    And after a hour and half, who is having no memory loss, YOU or your BB? (G)

    wow, yay Pink for a baby step closer to 6. Congrats on a successful install.
    JayDee, Do I hear right, no leaks? Awesome! Be carwful reloading those apps!
    Day 3 on 431 is just fine. I'm actually glad 1006 is not available to D/L except ota or I'd probably be tempted. LOL!!
    But thats just me and good old OCD.
    I heard wall St. is down today from a drop in gin futures.

    The no memory loss was fun while it lasted.
    Then I added Google Talk and Twitter since they were installed with the OS.
    After a half hour, I deleted Twitter and restarted my phone. It was starting to leak, slowly, small amounts, but I didn't want to see it. Plus, it's hard for me to measure with a calculator and a converter (bytes to MB).

    So it has been another 90 mins and so far...still under 1.0MB loss.
    Even if it leaks slowly, that's a good sign...like I said, usually I would be WAY past the 12-14MB mark by now...

    I have added back QL, Zona Snap,Bolt Browser, Font Collection and 4 internet shortcuts (like ESPN launcher, etc).

    I'm itching to add BeBuzz and BeWeather.
    Really anxious....

    No, it'll be a Sprint release. You'll have to register with Steve Jobs' great aunt's mother's birthday (all digits, BTW) to get it to work on your iPhone from Big Red. Oh, and you'll need a Mac to install it.

    Can I just load it up on my Cingular Pearl 8100? I don't like Apples, except as an excuse not to see a Doctor.

    Only if you have the left-handed model and you install on the first Monday after a blue moon. You know how these do-it-yourself unofficial OS packages are...

    Yeah, really , what are you all drinking anyway? A slapp happy bunch if I ever saw one.
    I found a bug! When I go to month view in calendar,(my default view)then go to the day where I've already entered something like I want to open it to edit. It's highlighted but BLANK. Above it will show the appt but not in the time slot it's in, just a highlighted blank there. If I pull up agenda(press A) it's all there and fine, just not in the daily view except at the top of the page. All entries are blank. There is a box around each where there should be text. Weird. Not a big deal, just thought I'd share. I tried to get capture it to download and had some problem otherwise I'd show a screenie.

    No Jim, in my monthly view, I can open an item and edit it. Nothing is blank. I can open all the items, edit them and they all appear with the correct information.

    This is coming. Someone should start a place holder thread. The verizon tech guys will probably call in sick tomorrow.

    Hi Pink, Jim here. How's the 1006 doing? Do you find any differences that you can tell from 975? Smoother, faster, anything?
