Not even going to comment on the name, we’ll leave that up to you. Just know this is viciously unconfirmed, but hey, it sounds like something RIM would think is cool.

By Verizon. Rogers is probably getting it first. Right now they’re just trying to get the software right but it’s coming along well, unlike when the Storm was coming out and the software was a disaster. ---

Will BB GPS tell you how fast you’re going with much accuracy? Like if I’m out in a boat without a speedometer? EDIT: Nevermind, 2 seconds with google shows that all mapping programs really will show your speed. BB Maps included. I believe my contract expired yesterday. Now a test of willpower.

Good enough. I’m about to pitch my i760 out the window. I think I finally figured out why it has always randomly decided to stop automatically going into standy and thus sucking my battery: I have my data blocked so when I get sent a MMS it keeps trying to grab it, even after I delete it, until I hard reset. :feck: ---

yea, I told them to add you. BBM contacts are private, and everything is encrypted end to end. The only device that can decrypt those messages is the device you are sending it to. Pay attention to your D’s and R’s, and make sure to learn how to attach nudes within a message! ---
