Dear all,

I just got my BB 9700 and currently using the RM40 Maxis BIS plan (5mb data)

Have a few question regarding 5mb data and WiFi connectivity, on which bandwith is being used.

1. Internet browsing: I believe as long as I'm connected to my WiFi and I set my browser to HotSpots, I should be using my WiFi bandwith.

2. MSN messenger, google talk, facebook (applications from RIM), if i used these applications (WiFi connection still on), which bandwith am I actually using? My WiFi or my 5mb data plan?

3. I got informed to upgrade my blackberry messenger software, which downloaded a 2.5mb update. I was connected to WiFi, but question again is whether the bandwith was using WiFi or 5mb plan?

4. I created my blackberry email account. If I'm home and I receive emails, is it WiFi bandwith? And if I'm outdoor with no access to WiFi, I guess my 5mb bandwith is the one right?
*
I am having the same problem. Whenever I am connected to Wifi and the 3G, when i surf, it uses my Maxis credit...how to make the browser and all the app to use the wifi connection whenever it is connected...and is there a easy way to switch the browser from myMaxis Mobile Portal browser to Hotspot Browser

Hotspot Browser meaning it uses the wifi connection right?

got a question about the bb bold 9700. is there any way for the phone NOT to display email contacts when i type in a name? it's terribly irritating when i get multiple entries when i type in a name, but one is actually an email contact (from when i synchronised with outlook) while the other is the phone contact (from my previous phone)....

There is an option inside outlook, don't sync the email, just sync contacts...

Desktop manager's sync is far way behind if compared to nokia sync.

They just need time to develop it only... More function and other setting will be included in the upcoming Desktop Manager...

but if that has already been done, is there a way to just delete all email contacts? i can't seem to find much information regarding this... perhaps i'm looking for the wrong words or something...

You have to use Desktop Manager and Microsoft Outlook to do it...

this is gonna sound stupid but i really can't find the option. i have the bb desktop manager installed, and the only options i see are:

Media
Device Switch Wizard
IP Modem
Application Loader
Email Settings
Backup and Restore
Synchronize

I've tried going through it all and I can't find anything that helps me delete all email contacts, unless you meant going through each and every entry and then deleting it one by one. If that's the case, i can do it from my phone, but that's gonna take a LONG time...

Please let me know if i'm understanding you wrongly... thanks!

so i thought of synching my contacts with my outlook (from bb -> outlook) and then delete whatever i don't want and then sync back the other way...
then i saw a new problem.....

i synched my contact list / address book previously with yahoo mail, so when i synched with outlook, only the new entries that i saved via my phone was synched with outlook. all other entries don't move...

i noticed this, the entries that moved, when i view the contact details show this at the top: synchronise using desktop
the ones that failed to sync properly had this at the top of the contact details: synchronise using myemail@yahoo.com

how do i get the sync to NOT use yahoo anymore and instead sync to outlook?

There is no way to save password on BB world. U have to key in the password every time u run BB Apps. I find it annoying too but no choice.

Very lucky u get exposure here before u get yr BB. Check if recon/PIN can use then only buy. Alot of recon set with new price tag. Spotted a few dishonest sellers claiming its new set. Alot of them. Be extra careful.
