Upgraded my BB

 

Upgraded to BB 8520. Steps to get set :

1. Call up 55666 to switch my device & enable it for corporate emails & other configurations. They asked me to switch off the device, remove the sim and place it back.

2. Install s/w with the device and synchronize with my Outlook for contacts/notes/tasks. My earlier BB was already synched with my Outlook.

Cost : ~14k on ebay.in (My dear colleague Amar bought it for me using an ebay coupon which got down the price to 13k for me :)

Next Steps :

0. Getting used to the trackpad after years of using the trackwheel.

1. Called my wife to check if she can hear me on this new device :)

2. Copied A.R. Rehman’s Devotional songs on the 2GB memory card that comes free with this one.

3. Downloaded Google App World to get hold of GMAIL & Google Maps apps.

4. Searching for a nice Blog writer app…

5. Searching for a short-cut to ‘Activate Speaker Phone’…

6. It doesn’t have a built-in GPS, but I should be able to hook it to VM’s GPS receiver over bluetooth. Need to try this :)
