    I couldn't download OTA from my BB 8130 and it isn't listed as one of the supported devices above. It kept giving a system error. So I went to http://solutions.vzwshop.com/nfl and entered in my phone number and it sent me a text message. In the text message was a link to http://www.verizonwireless.com/nfl and that page, within the BB browser brought up (immediately) the download. It seemed to run fine on my BB 8130 though I didn't try the video. The app is slow and the UI awkward, but if folks want it, try the link in this post.

    David,

    Thanks for the info…have been in search of this site for over a week. Went from the BB Curve to the BB Tour and was (previously) having hard time finding this. THANKS! :-)
