Considering that I ordered from Bell online, I can return it to their retail store?
edit: actually found all the information in the shipping box. its a dead pixel  Posted via RS Mobile

Hm...I'm leaning towards cancelling my order. Didn't really need one, bought as impulse when I saw the $189 price.

I even looked to see if there was a way to cancel the order (when I was logged into the shop.blackberry.com site) doesn't seem to be one... guess you'd have to -ugh- call customer service?

Yea you have to call in.
If you're giving as gift, I'd advise checking and charging up the battery or reviving it if its completely dead as it could be really annoying and piss them off. It means breaking the seal but rather that then a brick upon opened.

Dang. Not very many people like this device.
Seems like it was all impulse purchases.
I barely touch mine now. LoL.
Hopefully soon I will sign up for KOBO. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Yah 500 is too steep for me...I bought it to use it as an e-reader.
When 2.0 comes out. The people who returned/sold it
Might kick them selves.
I also got the rapid charger. Haven't even opened it. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Otherwise, maybe give it a couple more days, then call. They obviously got crushed with orders, so they're just slowly making their way through them.

Can the PB use iphone's internet like Bridge browser?
Also, can I download Android apps to use on the PB? Is there an Android app player now? I want to download and install PPS TV on this thing.
