What I did have trouble with was my hotmail account. I used 3, 123@/yahoo/hotmail/blackberry.com, all of them said that they were set, I recieved the confirmation mail except that the one from

      Navin, 14 Dec 2009thanks JRF.. its done... now another issue i face is ... moreI dont think its the id, I had 3, with the same id: 123@hotmail/yahoo/blackberry.com. I only had trouble with the hotmail one, the confirmation message said that I had to log on to the web and change an option that allowed my mail to be saved on the server or something like that. Maybe you need to check your settings also? I never knew what to do si I just erased it.

                  I've had my Gemini for about 1 month and it has NEVER frozen or restarted. The battery life for me (I'm a heavy user of facebook, msn messenger, internet and music/video playback) 1 full day and with enough battery to stay on all night to charge with 2 bars left. Blackberry has proven to me to be a stable and dependable OS. My gf has a 8350i and I have this obe and they're both stable. Too bad it doesn't have a flash and divx/xvid support. Well, guess I'll be getting the Bold 2 later!

                    It seems to me that the BB 8520 has more issues then advantages!!

                            Hi all my wife has just got the the BB curve 8520 and is having issues trying to watch videos on You Tube, we have also set up a wifi link. However she can stream on WAP however when she switches to wifi mode (which should be miles faster all she gets is an error after the video as downloaded and she cannot watch it.

                            Any help would be great.
