I thought "Retired" was a separate label than "Moderator". Usually when someone has "Moderator" as a standalone label in his description, he is a person of import. This is the first time I've seen it used in this context.

2) I think of "Rant" as a digression of no consequence, posted to make the poster feel better. That was not what i had in mind when I posted, and having it labeled that way certainly didn't feel supportive. Perhaps I again misunderstood how things work here, they do seem to a bit different. 8-}

Looks like you learned something new.

Now, let's see if the OS update solved the problem, or not.

Grumpy Ninja to you, DC

Jeff, since I made the comment you took offense to, and don't seem to understand the theory behind what is a "rant" and what is not, since your initial post doesn't post a single query, but only your personal story of your personal experience, your thread was moved to the most appropriate section of this forum. A place for everything, and everything in its place. Nice and tidy.

But honestly, people are willing to help you with any issues you have. A combative attitude on all that is offered to you, won't help. You can see it what its already done for those "retired" people in this thread.

Let us know how the upgrade goes.

I don't mean to be combative, but I have no sympathy or understanding for an organization like RIM that handles a customer as poorly as I've been handled. Maybe the upgrade will work, we shall see, but for RIM to jump me through hoops for 2 months and then blow me off should be something you all find reprehensible.
thanks

We are only hearing your side of the story, and for the most part, you seem to be an anomaly.

Ya, we're not RIM.

If you want help, please state so.

Otherwise it's apparent now you came to state your displeasure, and you have don't that.

It might be that too... In some languages, I believe it is a type of prophylactic.

Wirelessly posted (wap! woop woop!)

If Nemo the hockey lived in an anomaly, and an anomaly is a type of pasta... Are we talking about pasta with fish? (Like tuna pasta, only hockey flavour instead of tuna).

If so, I don't like fish. Can I have parma ham with my portion of anomaly?

you are complaining about RIM as a company on how bad they treat their customers... atleast they TRIED to resolve it for 2 months. Most companies would have given up on that long ago. If anything I used to work for Verizon DSL tech support and my god does Verizon have some issues with customer service. Maybe RIM wanted to try and resolve it with your current device software because your device was the only one that has had this issue... then after 2 months(im sure the notes are fairly long at that point) forgot about the fact that you havent tried the newest version installed yet. Still waiting on to see if this will infact resolve the issue....

I thought I had to use what Verizon made available?
there's no harm in taking it direct from RIM?

All OS's come from RIM. There's no harm whatsoever.
