My quick take on the Leaked 5.0 OS for the Blackberry 8330

Yesterday I found out the a leaked version of RIM's 5.0 OS for the Blackberry surfaced, and I had to try it out. I wanted to give you all a few of my quick findings



1) I love the clean look of the blackberry bootup, it took awhile but it finally did boot up,


2)No browser, at least not for me, seemed to be a service book issue, it was listed in applications and as a running application but if you went to a page it said something along the lines of contact your provider, blah blah; it was late, I was tired!


3)No ubertwitter, ubertwitter only supports upto 4.7 (unless I'm mistaken, which I have been known for before) and that is a deal breaker, I got to have my tweets :)


4) I was able to load opera mini 4.2 with DM but I got the same service issue.
I may try it again this weekend when I have more time to tinker, It does have some promise. It defiantly has some Great back end features, like how you can sort the applications by 3rd party and such.


If I can figure out the browser issue and get ubertwitter running I will defiantly be running this OS!
