I don't own an 8830, but I work on blackberries and some of my users have 8830s. What did you need to know?

The 8830 should be able to view most common attachment types. But depending on how big the attachment is, you may or may not be able to actually save it to your BB. Which type(s) are you having trouble with?

OK, jpgs should be no problem. I don't have a 8830 in front of me, but I think if you scroll to the attachment and click the "blackberry" button (the one right next to the track ball with the blackberry logo on it), a menu should pop up and give you options to open, save, etc. If another menu pops up with "Full Content" on it, click that and click Retrieve. You may have already tried these steps. I don't mean to dumb it down too much - it's just kind of hard to diagnose without having it in my hands!

If you run your service through a corporate server, then your employer could disable jpg downloads. That is the case with mine.

I prefer the name "crackberry" because I love this device so much. I have graduated to the 8800 from the 7130c.

You should be able to open and view all attachments via the built-in BB software. Just click the trackheel where it says "[1 Attachment]" to pull up the screen. The only thing that would stop you (as mentioned above) is restrictions from your company.

As for additional tips on your device, I use www.blackberryforums.com ; there is a dedicated room for the 8800 series which has some comprehensive FAQs. Think sandtrap.com swing section, but for BBs.

Enjoy!

I picked up the 8703E couple of months ago and am completely addicted to my crackberry. I don't use the internet explorer feature all that much but am in love with the VIIGO service and google maps feature. I have a bookmark of Massachusetts and New England courses and use the maps feature for detailed directions, the best.

Also, its nice to have complete access to my email accounts 24.7

I just got a BlackBerry Pearl, and 2-3 times a week it gets goofy on me: doesn't show that I have new emails (when I do); won't let me delete emails/messages that I have read; and sometimes shows new emails with emails I've gotten & read YEARS ago.

When I go to Verizon they tell me to take the battery out & put it back in, but should I have to do that once or twice a week?

The phone is set to turn off each night during the week, so it shouldn't get clogged up & gets a fresh start each morning.

Do I need to take it back & get another one? This is annoying ...

Are you on a BES server? yeah i would call into verizon and tell them the "track ball" isnt working or what have you (if your still under warranty). They wont replace it unless its software/hardware related. if its damaged they will also cry and bitch and probably charge you full price for the phone.

    • Nothing is assured and lots of talented young athletes in many sports fail to achieve greatness. as was said, injuries, growth, lots of things can come into play, And let’s let honest, over the years a few players have been branded “The Next Tiger Woods” and yet there is only 1 Tiger Woods. My initial point was if he can do a great breakout it may capture the attention of a new generation.  Back in the 70s it was Secretariat in horse racing, we also had Jordan in basketball and let’s not forget Tiger for golf.  Stories get people interested and I think golf needs a new story. I will pull for him and hope it works out but there are so many factors that come into play you just do not know, But I can hope.
    • Day 114: 4/19/24 Chipping and putting practice. Tried a little hinge and hold with good results, which has never been the case during a real round. Playing tomorrow and eager to play.
    • I don't think I've found any of the Good Good stuff, or the guys that were once a part of it, very interesting.
    • Day 535, April 19, 2024 30 minutes in the middle of the day while doing errands and a bunch of other things. Behind. Behind.
    • Day 127 (19 Apr 24)  -  Played in the Friday Men's group today.  While I shoot 82, it was a pretty solid round with 10 pars, 5 bogies and 3 doubles.  I really hated the doubles - but each one was followed by a par come back, so "accepting" the number has really begun to pay off and not letting it get to me on the following hole in thinking "I have to get that stroke back".
