Question
thanks for the reply.when i go to help from the browser the screen with the "ask a question" is displayed. ask any question and the answer is always "blackberry answers is not currently available for your blackberry device type". is there an update or something that can be done to fix this?

Answer
If you go into the "?" icon on your BlackBerry, you should be able to click on the radio button that says "Find More Help On-Line" and then the place it should go is http://mobile.blackberry.com/mss/home(It should ask you if this is where you want to go). It will then go to the Web Site, you will see the Ask a Question about your BlackBerry or Search the Site box and you should be able to type anything in that box and get help. I just did it and typed "GPS" and got info on GPS. Check to be sure that your device is going to the address that I put in above. If you are not accessing Help this way, that may be the issue. Let me know. Thanks. DebiN
