The fact that an article like this exists shows (partly) how far they’ve failed to deliver on that strategy.

What about an article on what the firewall settings really mean? On a related note, how about some on advice on good hygine wrt what is safe to install given anyone can setup an ota download.

Color me paranoid but I for one don’t have a reasonable appreciation of how dangerous or safe it is to start installing random applications on my phone.

The trick is to use FireFox with barcode generating plugin like “Mobile Barcode” ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2780 ) which lets you create a barcode from any link on any website, then just scan the created barcode with your BlackBerry camera, while running a simple barcode reader application like “NeoReader” ( http://www.blackberrydownload.net/download-neoreader.html ). The hole precedure takes alot less time than typing the whole url or browsing using the blackberry browser !
