Tom / Steve,

I only offer this as an observation.

First, there's a KB article reporting a problem with the 7130e (and 7250) and long (>160 characters) SMS messages on the Telstra network that requires firmware version 4.1.0.364 (package version - not firmware version) or later. (see Long SMS message is illegible on 7130e and 7250 )

Current firmware versions for the 7130e are:

• Telstra - 4.1.0.309
• Verizon - 4.1.0.268
• Sprint - 4.1.0.318
• Cingular 7130c - 4.1.0.321

Finally, and unfortunately I can't find the reference now, we received a notice at my office (before the release of the 7130) that the 7100 series required a firmware update to fix a time problem. Not sure if it relates, but interesting that you're having a calendar problem, and the 7100 series has a history of time problems....

I'll re-post if I can find the reference later today.
