3. How do you dial when you're driving down the road... you cannot even see the buttons.

If you hold the space bar the backlit should turn on and jump to the phone app.

2. even when you press the buttons, no backlight comes on unless you press the pin sized button to turn it on!

See above, there is also a great app called BBLight which enables always on backlit

MY #1 PROBLEM ###################
1. The Desktop Manager keeps crashing and I have not been able to SYNC anything... I did a google search and found 200+ messages with the same problem dating back to October 2004... but no solution.... I've messed with this software for over 14 hours during the last 2 days without success.... very fustrating! I'm running Windows XP Pro, Outlook 2003 and either the desktop manager crashed or the application just quits without an error message. No Sync, no nothing!!! UGH!

Do you have you USB cable connected direct to the computer or via a hub? Sync errors do seem to occur when connected through a hub. If that's not the case can you get a copy of desktop manager 3.6.x.x difference is minimal but I find it works like a charm with Outlook 2003. I have a co-worker whom doesn't have the exact issue as yours but something along the line with Ourlook 2003 on desktop manager 4.0.0.3

Anyone else run into the same or different issues? How did you resolve?

... I'm giving it until next Saturday and if I cannot get it running correctly I'm sending it back!

OWNING THIS DEVICE HAS BEEN SO FUSTRATING !!!!
