Yeah it did reduce my memory quite a bit, from 27Mb to 21Mb. Its not at 10Mb right now, I'm just afraid that installing many apps will lower my application memory to a constant 10Mb, I'll do a battery pull soon, is it normal for my application memory to drop like this after only installing App World? This is the lowest my memory has ever been, I've seen it drop to 18 a few minutes ago, my memory is always in the high 20's and between 30 and 45 after baterry pull. I usually do a battery pull once a week, my last one was Saturday.

Not sure, mine was about 52MB before installing and about 51MB after (though it wont open for me yet).
After using it, the memory might go down because im sure a few posts ago someone mentioned its a memory hog.

They all install to the device memory by default! If you want to get them on the SD card you need to use a 3rd party application. Check this thread for more info:

VZW 8830 OS 4.5.x on BES in US and it says I don't meet the minimum system requirements. Huh?

[Edit: Working now. Although the sys req don't state it, looks like it requires > 5MB memory free]

I am getting the same message, AT&T 8310 4.5.x on US BES. When I hook up to USB and try to download through the desktop computer I receive "unspecified error"??? This should work with an 8310 curve right?

[*EDIT: I was able to download and install]

I wasn't particularly impressed either, Scott. I do think, however, that we may be unjustly expecting more from the initial rollout. BlackBerry applications have been strewn around every corner of the internet for so long now, it might take a while to get them corralled into one location, App World. And of course, just rolling this out is going to turn on a lot of lightbulbs for would-be aspiring developers, I'm sure....Let's see how this pans out over the next 6 months.

Working great for me. I think it looks pretty slick, navigation was also a bit slow for me. I'm interested to see how it changes over time.

Awesome app, one of the toughest things has always been keeping up on new must have apps. My only complaint is they need to specify between applications that are "TRIALS" and ones that are actually "FREE". I've downloaded a couple apps to then realize that they aren't FREE they are actually eval or trail versions.

I have two questions about App World:

1. Does it check for an manage application updates?

2. I have a couple paid apps that are now available in App World (QuickLaunch is one). If App World manages updates, is there any way to integrate your current purchases into the program so it can check for application updates for those you already own?

I'm getting the same error using both an AT&T Bold and a Verizon Storm. Wondering if it could be IT Policy related (on a corporate BES)?

Is there a way to get App World to recognize that you have some of the apps installed already or do I need to download them again and overwrite them?

They could be blocking application installs at the BES level....

I wonder if they will have a desktop client? (NOT desktop manager install). The BB client works fine for me but I'd rather browse on a PC.

I do realize I'd have to install/pay from the BB client but would rather decide on what apps to get from a PC.

We allow full Internet browsing and all 3rd party downloads (I'm one of the BES admins). Our IT Policy is fairly open which is why I suspect the issue isn't on our end.

I dont think it is a BES problem. I have downloaded many 3rd party apps before.

I have just been on the phone to Vodafone UK and all they could say was that they are in discussion with RIM about resolving the problem.

One of our other BES Admins got this working on his Sprint Curve, although we're still getting the 'check your network connection' error on 8830, Bold, and Storm.

The Curve is on a test BES so I'm currently switching to our test BES to see if a different IT Policy fixes our issue. I'll let you know...

Great, thanks. Hopefully they will release a version that can work off the BIS. If this is an IT policy situation my company is not real open to changing things on the BES.

App World installed just fine on my 8100.

For some reason I can't connect to the service though.
After the loading screen I keep getting "Tunnel timed out" or Tunnel failed".
I've tried soft reseting the phone and pulling the battery with the same error messages.
Anyone else run into this?

Well I'm at a loss. I setup my Bold on our test BES and am running the same specs as another BES admin (same group, software config, and IT policy).

He can access App World just fine, but now I'm getting a "Failed to transmit" error.
