I installed it about 45 mins ago and it's been working nicely for me.

Same, no problems to speak of, yet...

**moved to General Discussion area, and Stickied**

Installed - Working just fine here on VZW 8330. Browsed for a few minutes. I downloaded one FREE app only to find out its a crippled trial. While I have no problem with that whatsoever, I do wish they would mention that fact in the app description. Would it have stopped me from trying it out? No...But, I don't like surprises! ;)

Same here. Just installed it a short while ago. It went off without a hitch.

Works greaat! I think it might top the iphone App store!

Works like a champ here. I downloaded it 20 minutes ago on my Storm.

It installed great, but it's taking a lot of memory.

i have a blackberry 8900 with the 4.6 update but when i try to load the appstore it says i dont have the system requierments to run the program, anyone got any ideas what my problem could be.

Installed but I get an error saying 'unable to connect to the App World server, check you network connection'.

All the other apps work just fine, any idea??
8320 on TMO

I am running an 8120 with OS 4.5 - any ideas why I was told I do not have the System Requirements?

I am on Orange (UK)

Damn thing is only for US, UK and Canada. Been waiting for it since the teaser page went up. I dont quite understand why companies would do something like this. Only release stuff for few countries when they have no problems selling their devices here in this part of the world..

i wonder if its to do with orange ???

I wont be a happy customer if it is.

I got the e-mail this morning , downloaded it and clicked on the long waited app store.....
But low and behold a message appeared "Upgrade your serive to a plan that includes browsing and discover a world of possibilities at Blackberry App World. Contact your service provider " I have a browsing plan........
Typical....... So contacted Vodafone ....... and it turns out that The App store doesnt work on Storms in the UK!!!!!!!!
Why not Rim??????

Is this issue going to be fixed?

I get the same, I have a data plan and this is after downloading it OTA!!!!
I'm on T-mobile in the UK could this be a UK issue?
Rim says that it is available to the UK!

Same problem as the users above -^

Downloaded mine no problem, but I keep getting this message when loading it:

"Upgrade your service to a plan that includes browsing and discover a wrold of possibilities at BlackBerry App World. Contact your service provider for more details"

Which is interesting considering I have Blackberry browsing service books and icon, any ideas what its going on about?

I'm using a 8100 on O2 UK.

Sux big time that it's not available for us here in the Netherlands

Seems to be UK carriers then. Thats all 4 carriers that are having issues either usig or downloading it!

I just contacted T-mobile Customer services and they have had a "Few" calls about it and are working on it and hope to have it resolved within 24 hours!!

Hope so..

Yep, I have a bold, from TM but running on Orange (UK), error message says my device does not meet the system requirements, WTF?

A friend of mine has it working on a Vodafone 8100, so I've taken a look. The Interface is ok, but there seems to be a lot of false info going on here.

Plenty of 'free' applications but when you click to read about them or download they turn out of be half-arsed trials.

Free and Trial are not the same thing RIM!

Free stuff like Facebook and trials like 'Lite' versions of games should be clearly marked.

Also just for testing perposes I found it odd that it download a app and only then informed me I already had it, surely it would check for before downloading? Oh well.

The new version of Facebook is STILL not available as well, which is disappointing.

Same problem, same network. I'm looking at this message thinking, "look you stupid thing, I have free mobile internet, and the service books that let me browse, stop being so stupid."

Would be typical that T-mobile are having problems, they never get things right first time.

I was thinking of calling them, then decided I really couldn't be bothered. But glad to know they know about it at least.

FYI, I tried to download over WiFi and OTA

I am having problems too ... Bold 9000 on Orange UK, also being told I dont have the system requirements

Options > About

Blackberry 9000 Smartphone (3G, Wi-Fi)
v4.6.0.221 (Platform 4.0.0.186)

Seems to comply

Any ideas??

I am in T-Mo in the UK with BES and it works fine for me

I can't find a way to cancel a download. Level won't download gives a network error. Other then that everything is working well.

I agree with the comment above "free" and "trial" are not the same........

Does any one have time to call Orange on 154 to get an update?

Same problem here...

i rang orange about 9.00 this morning they dint have a clue but they told me they were looking into it.

I have new bold on uk orange and get same message as above. Come on guys get it fixed if you want my cash!!!

Lucky you!
I'm not on BES so perhaps its affecting those on BIS for some reason.

It looks great, I'm surprised at how many apps is on there for the first day its live.

One question, when I buy and instal an app, does it get installed on my SD card or the onboard memory? I'm always trying to keep my data memory(ram) to the highest as possible, I don't want to instal to many apps and only have 10MB of memory left? Will installing to many apps affect my memory?

Yes, it will reduce the memory. 10 seems a little low, make sure they aren't any apps running in the background that you aren't using, delete sent messages, broswer cache and try a battery pull.
this should increase the memory.

Off topic a touch but can you choose where to install apps or can you move them to the SD card after installation? I have a 8900 btw.

Orange UK told me there was a problem on RIM's side. They will update as they know more.

^ Not possible.

it took me a few tries clicking the download link to finally get it started. it kept giving me timeouts. perhaps because of the insane download traffic the app is getting?

the app world is pretty cool, but a bit slow while navigating. hopefully this improves whenever we get an update. for now, it's a welcomed feature!

p.s. i wonder how much did viigo paid for their app to be the first thing that showed up upon opening???
