So--if I upgrade to OS 5, am I going to start with 11 megs and go down from there?
if u dont have lots of apps, then u would love v5.0

and u dont have to use beta if u dont want, 5.0 is official and posted in files area.....i have it running and its great.....

u would love it....its faster.....text message layout is different, messenger is different....
if u dont have lots of apps, then u would love v5.0

Yes, I guess that's what I'm struggling with. Lots of apps is what the BB is all about, mainly, or at least it is for me. I wonder why RIM can't fix the memory issue when there is so much physical memory available in the BB itself.
