I invite you to ask those few people to come here, all the BB users live on these forums (with a much, much better webUI than Google Groups) and this site is heavily indexed by Google. Some random thread in the morass of Groups will just get lost and never found again. (I also get annoyed when people join place B and say nothing more than "hey come over to place A instead!" - that's a lack of respect for place B).

Anyways back on topic, I tried deleting 1.1.0, battery pull, install 1.5.1, battery pull, then run it - and it loaded up after a bit of a pause. Maybe some of y'all might try that...
