Blackberry OS6

[Senoska]

Just played with it for about two hours. Went through everything. I have to say, I've been a blackberry user for awhile, and typically wish phone OS updates wouldn't fuck with everything on the phone, however, I have to say, this OS is fucking fantastic.

Any other Blackberry users out there? Thoughts?

I'll probably be switching back to my Storm here in a week or two, is the update for all the models?

Storms and Storm2's cannot run OS6.

can the curve's run OS6? i haven't connected to my system in a couple of weeks so i wasnt aware there was an update.

also does it wipe everything including enterprise email and all that shit?

If you're talking the Curve 8330, I'm 100% sure they can't. The newer Curves (the one with the touchpad) may be able to, but sadly I have no experience with those as my work does not have any in the field.

Typically, software upgrades don't wipe your settings, but the one OS6 upgrade I've done forced the user to re-establish her BES account.

bleh i dont want to update if i have to go thru that shit all over again, my biz is in Sydney and i really dont want to be up late at night trying to fix that nonsense... what's the upsides of having 6 anyway? why is it so awesome sauce?

I'm not sure why Senoska is all hot and bothered by it. IMO, it's nothing more than a visual change, but fuck if I know, my BB won't run OS6. Android far eclipses BB as far as I'm concerned.

well thats not the issue honestly since i still have a goddam 2 year contract on this garb, 2 or 3 years ago i would be happy with it but as more and more of these wicked phones come out (wp7, droid, ios) i feel like im out of the loop, i want decent apps, i want a big touchscreen, i want a GOOD camera, this curve barely makes fucking decent calls when im out of the country.

im going to break contract in a year so i dont get too fucked by my carrier and get whatever is top notch at the time, maybe wp7 or a droid but not really sure (most def not iphone)
