Hi everyone, I am a BB noob and this is my second post. Please accept my apologies if I have posted in the wrong area.

I recently picked up a Tour from sprint, it worked great but I wanted WI-FI and I could not stand the trackball. I took it back and picked up a Bold 9650. It's much better, except that it won't do the three main things I want it to do. It refuses to download and install paypal, ebay and the weather channel.
I am assuming that the software developers have not written their apps to work with the OS on my BB. Is it safe to assume that SOON I will be able to run these three apps on my BB? Or should I take it back and get the tour?
OR can I just load the OS from the Tour onto my Bold?

Thank you for your help and advice!

-Ken

Device OS's are device specific. The bold 9650 is a fairly new device so you should have one of the most compatible OS's. Are you attempting to install these apps from BB AppWorld? Can you explain more about "refuses to install"?

Paypal is available from BB Appworld. You cannot run the version designed for other cell phones or PC's
