Blackberry 8800 JDE and Simulators.

[jocelyn]

Anyone has any news, information or any idea about when RIM is going to release them? All developers with whom I am in touch with, seem to be clueless about it..

Thanks.

Hopefully soon, b/c a few of our apps designed for 4.2 and below don't work on 4.2.1, go figure. ...and it looks like OS 4.2.2 will be out in the next few months, as well (on 8300).

yes, you can download JDE 4.2.1 though it do not have the MDS.
and you can use the MDS from JDE 4.1.0 instead of it!
