just gotten a BB Bold 9000 phone late last night and am setting it up frantically to use it as my data plan will be disabled and replaced with a 'proprietary' BB data plan.
i feel less-than-privileged to be using its dumb, unintuitive set-up software which so 'fortunately' conflicts with my Windows 7 suite on my desktop i.e.:
- i can't get the BBappworld software loaded into my BB using the USB connection; an error message saying that IE8 is facing an error keeps popping up without end.
- even as i blog i can't even get the website to detect my BB connection through the USB.
prior to this, i was registering for a BIS account and i had to re-load the page 7 times just because the verification code i entered was wrong - the stupid verification code bar is truncated such that i can't read whether it's a 'v' or a 'y'. Also, the screen name i selected is unavailable for use. With reference to so many other website registration services online, you mean BB can't infuse this field input with an instant database checked so that we need not input and re-input the 'password', 'confirm password' and 'verification code' fields over and over again, just due to a minor error? omigoodness.
this is really not a very good start-off impression with the BB for me.
movie reviews, grouses, happenings, constructive insults, dysfunctional advice, *yada yada* and the list goes on...
