Guys, im new with BB. Planning to get 1 9700 while using iphone 2g. Hehe. I have few question here and hope someone could clear my doubt.

1. What does BIS mean?
2. I am using maxis line, can i use digi or celcom BB service?
3. Does the maps in BB working in M'sia?
4. Does the battery allow to charge frequently like iphone? I mean won't cause any damage to the battery if I suka suka or have time then charge the battery in my car.
5. Is BB stable (hardware/ software)? My bought my AP iphone for 2 years and have no problem so far (touch wood). Hope won't have a chance to use BB warranty like iphone does.

Hi Reuben,

Thanks for your quick reply. From your thread, i knew you have a good experience with your BB

1. I heard ppl said celcome BIS/ coverage is way better than maxis, is this true?
2. Which mean BIS is for internet, email, msn etc and BES is for those technical guy to maintain their company email server?
3. How can we update BB OS? Download to PC and install from there?
4. Will the phone get lock like iphone while update OS?
5. If we caught in trouble (BB hang etc) after install 3rd party app, can we troubleshoot by ourselves?

sorry for asking so many question here, as i need to get full review/understanding before i buy
Thanks for taking time on my question. Appreciate it.
