Just updated to 4.6.0.147. Its a lot lot faster than 4.6.0.92. My bold used to take about 5 minutes to turn on (no joke), now takes about 1 minute.

Has anyone tried downloading the latest Windows Live App yet? It's on the Blackberry homepage when accessing straight from your device. I have and it actually works now, without a single error message-yipee! :o)

anyone got Vodafone Find and Go Navigator running properly on their Bold? Friends says he doesnt have a network connection when he does. Downloaded it to my Bold (unbranded but on O2) and it works fine.

Unlatching a BB device? If I go to the Orange Internet Service website and log in, I get the option of changing my device by putting in my new IMEI number.
Is this all I need to do to unlatch the pin on my old Curve or do I have to still ring Orange?
(Tried all day on 156 and just got stacked in the queue!).
Thanks

I don't think you do have to ring them Doug. When you register a new PIN and IMEI to your account i'm pretty sure it frees up the old one!
Almost positive in fact! Tmag can probably confirm this.

If you arent replacing the BB with another then you will need to call Orange and get them to close the BIS account.
Otherwise the BB is redundant.
So
1) If you going onto another BB. Then dont ring Orange.
2) If you not using another BB and need to pass this on to another user, then call Orange and get them to close BIS Account

Hi Tom. I am getting a 8320 tomorrow from Orange and passing on the Curve to Yasman, that's why I want to free the pin. So if I register the new one, it frees up the old one?

@nicv27
Multimedia is excellent on the Bold and has replaced my iPod for Music which is something the E90 or E71 couldn't do and is even better than my N95, N95 8GB where. That's with my Music encoded @256kbps AAC and using my Shure EC2g ear phones.
For watching Video the Bold screen is beautifully clear and bright and possibly one of the best looking screens i have used bar none. It also handles a wide range of formats and once your material is converted to he correct size it looks fantastic. Even listening to the sound over the stereo speakers is both good and loud enough with no disatortion. As you may be able to tell i am seriously impressed with the Bold and that's not easy for any device to do with me.
@jcwhite
I have been running Beta firmwares since my original .92 on Orange and currently am on .162 and each one has improved the performance of the Bold. The other thing is if you don't like a firmware it's just so easy to erase it all and re load what ever one you want.
If i stuck to official releases I'm really not sure I'd be so happy with the Bold as i am.

Hi Dicky Snapples
I am using Movavi Video Converter 6 which which allows me to set up custom settings for one click conversions and also convert to many different formats and screen resolutions. It wasn't free but was worth every penny as it has allowed me to convert my material to so many different devices now.

You are correct in thinking it is swanage and it does have a pier.
