also, is there any way to write more than the 160 characters for a text message?

I think it's only available with the 9700, I had a tour and it didnt work (had a newer OS on it), but when I got my 9700 is showed up as 160 1/6

why dont you just call the person? if you going into 2+ pages of text, just call the person.

Opera works very well on the Tour. Either one bolt or opera are better then the default web browser.
Opera is great....I only use bolt to PM or if I need to edit a post or something since you can do that on opera....
 
I just got Opera Mini 5 on my 9700 and it's pretty

. The mouse cursor is pretty laggy though, any advice on how to fix it?
 
Nothing I've seen in regards to fixing the cursor issues on Opera 5 for the 9700. I hope that Opera will address it in an update sooner than later.

Thankfully I never deleted the beat 2 from my phone and the cursor on that works 100 times better than the final release.

GMaps only requires a data plan and the same goes for Poynt as well.

Interesting...  my Bold's battery life seems to have gotten extremely better.  Luck of the draw, I guess?

If you're in the SoCal area, hit up Westminster/Garden Grove area.  TONS of shops where you can pick up a BB w/out a contract.  You can haggle them on the prices too.

If not, Craigslist is probably your best bet... my nephew came up on a 8900 (brand new) for $150.  No joke. 
Just search through the ads and hope you get lucky and find a dummy trying to get rid of the phone. *shrugs*



btw, FINALLY got my SocialScope "membership" approved.  WOW.  Hands down the best Twitter/FB app.  No need for two apps anymore.
