Default Can't play movies

Please Login to Remove!

Hi;
I just bought my BB 8700g two days ago. Im trying to watch some mobile movies from some websites. But after the download completes, all I get is a bunch of text. I think the movies where in .3gp format

do I have to install special software to see those movies? And what other formats can I watch movies in?

Thanks

The current gen of BB's are not capable of playing movie files. Sona Mobile has launched bbTV see if your carrier offers it as a service?

You bought the wrong device. Flash. Movies. You bought an e-mail centric device....

You got the wrong phone. You need a MDA, not a Blackberry. Or any other Microsoft based phone.
