Are you with T-Mo? If so, go to the site and download.

Be aware, however, that the disk possibly puts a USB driver on to the PC, that is, a driver for the Pearl to connect. And although I have not confirmed this yet, the online download does NOT contain the USB driver. The download is just DM that can be used by other BB's besides the 8100.

Nonsense. Possibly? No.

The latest version of DM is available from the RIM web site (under the support section) and works fine with the Pearl and all other models I've tried. You do NOT need to get it from T-Mobile. T-Mobile rarely updates their links; the latest version from RIM will always work.
