          I didnt receive any message. I instead deleted all the accounts and recreated them still problem persists for gmail account on BB with same id.

          I did also send service pack to check accounts, and message i got was all respective accounts are configured successfully.

          i dont know why this gmail account on BB is behaving like this (i.e. not display mails from similar ids i own with other domains)

                    No office editor, no 3G, camera only 2MP?? Wake up guys there are plenty options to spend your money other than this.

                      2 months user,
                      Pros: Loud speaker, BB Messenger works great, if u love to text or chat, this phone might be suitable for u... works great wit google map (pity dun hav GPS)

                      Cons: Camera kind of poor especially under low light, finger print nightmarez, unable to load flash websites n kind of down especially on FB, Battery life kind of short, limited applications n themes (not like Iphone tonnes of app)

                      In order to get some app download n install, it;s necessary to download BB WORLD APP (which not available in every country such as MALAYSIA etc). Kind of troublesome also...

                              I have a question, I haven't been able to get my Blackberry plan activated (have it on prepaid right now) and since my BIS service was suspended until reactivating through the unlimited plan, I haven't been able to use my wifi. It keeps saying "error, conection to internet has failed. Contact your service provider if problem persists". Any idea how to use wifi until I get my plan?

Well, I had 3 emails and they all had the same id (ex: 123@) but the only one I had trouble with was my hotmail account. When I activated them I reveived a message saying that everything was done correctly, but when my hotmail account was done the message said something about an "action requiered" that needed to be done. Something about changing the settings for my emails to be saved on my server or something. My yahoo and blackberry emails worked but not my hotmail. So I just deleted it. Maybe you recieved the same message?

                                    Can this device sync with my contact on outlook? I was Windows Mobile PDA user before, curious with this Blackberry OS.

                                      I havent used the blackberry yet. But I had a nokia e71. Before my purchase i was in love with e71. but that changed once i had it. its loaded with features that you dont need. the keypad is difficult to use. like many nokias, it makes a screetchy noise whenever you take a photo, even in silent mode.
                                      so before you buy an e71, try it out for a day or two. some people love it and some hate it.
