I've had almost all types of bbs from os6.. Curve, bold, torch.. And went back to 9700... This one and 9780 are the best bbs tha rim has created so far.. Awesome battery life

You can release more memory by deleting all the social network (IM's) applications you dont need, or just all of them. Also delete podcasts, any games and social feeds. Easy to do in applications management. Hardware restart and turn off location enable. You will have much more memory and the mobile will be faster and smoother.

I updated the OS to version 6 but then delete the so called social network rubbish and wow the BB has a new lease of life. This, together with turning off location enable has sped up the BB considerably so now I dont not have to upgrade the BB
