Since Research in Motion officially released BlackBerry Messenger 5 users have reported issues with the BBM icon disappearing on various builds of the BlackBerry OS.  To make a long story short, BBM 5 isn’t compatible with certain builds of the BlackBerry operating system. To address this problem, Research in Motion has released KB article KB22308 ,which, basically, just lets you know that RIM is aware of the issue but that they haven’t found a resolution or have a time frame for when they will.  RIM also updated the BlackBerry Messenger page on BlackBerry App World: Before downloading, please back up your contact list by displaying the menu within BlackBerry Messenger – Options – Back Up. (Available for BBM 5.0 and 5.0.1 users) Please ensure that you are using RIM or carrier approved BlackBerry® Device Software to avoid compatibility issues that may result in loss of the BBM icon.  For more information, read article KB23968 (http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB23968) After installing the new version of BBM, please restart your device

Even though the BlackBerry Curve 9330 , RIM’s CDMA variant of the BlackBerry Curve 3G, has yet to be officially announced, I don’t think it comes as any surprise that Research in Motion is working the device. It looks like a BlackBerry KB article (which has since been pulled) mentioned the Sprint BlackBerry Curve 9330 , particularly a problem with the device.

CrackBerry has probably the best looking pictures of the BlackBerry Bold 9800 Slider , rumored to hit AT&T by months end, to hit the web yet.  I have no intention on moving to AT&T to get this device, however, I must say what an awfully good looking device the Bold 9800 Slider is. If the June release rumors are true, we should, unless Apple is going the Verizon route and officially announcing the Bold 9800 Slider less 24 hours before the time of it’s release, start to hear official word on this device any time now.
