my desktop manager for blackberry is running... about 20 more minutes until the new os is loaded...
4.5 release: 4.5.0.75 (app .52) for 8120/8320
there was a lot of issues with the beta releases... one even had a bad case of frying sim cards. this is an official release, not a beta.
i ran across it this morning on pinstack. i am SUPER excited as i have been waiting for months to install this os. i will get a whole new blackberry, un realistically speaking.
some features to include streaming youtube from the browser, video recording and sending, better memory handling, among many others. and one in particular that i want to test would be the uma capability. supposedly this version does not drop calls when going from uma (voip) to carrier during a call. it supposedly is a smooth transition now. i really hope so. it wasn't so bad on the current os but it was an issue at times. but how can you complain about free calling from your mobile device?
so obviously i'm excited... as soon as i seen the posting about the release i immediately asked my roommate if i could borrow his windows (blegh) laptop. i shouldn't hate on the windows laptop since otherwise i would not be able to load this software. rim technologies has to develop a better relationship with mac users. pocketsync just will not cut it. its a useless software! USELESS!
also i'm hoping the new os will help with my jivetalk issues. i sometimes get disconnected from the servers and lose my chatting capabilities unless i reboot my phone. its a pain, so that explains why i haven't been on messenger much lately..
omg, its almost done i can hear it dinging that its already loaded the os and is just reinstalling my base apps and third party apps.. yay! i will return with my findings...
happy day!
