Exactly...maybe it's cause I have a Pearl w/smaller screen, but I can't imagine spending much time randomly browsing through app world for software on my BB. App World only shows one app at a time at the first display (do I really need to see such a huge icon on the initial apps displayed!? Wasted screen space.). In all displays it doesn't show any info on the app w/out clicking to go into secondary details screen and then also scrolling down. Also, standard nav keys don't work (1 to top of page, 7 to bottom, 3 page up, 9 page down, though Space for page down does work). Too tedious for me at this point...

I'd prefer to browse on my PC, then happy to go purchase on the BB...even better would be browse/purchase on PC, then email sent to my BB with link to download.
