Default New to the Blackberry World

Please Login to Remove!

Hey I am new to the whole Blackberry thing, so I have some questions.

Is there some other way to get more applications, other than what is on App world?
Like AOL and MSN Messenger?

And what are some other neat things I can do to my Pearl?

Welcome to BBF.

Look at the AfterMarket Software forum here. There are lots of applications discussed. I suggest you read the BlackBerryFAQ -- link is in my sig. That will give you some ideas of things you can do.

Is this a BlackBerry issued by your employer? Or do you own it personally?

Did you buy it new or used? Maybe it has an IT Policy blocking downloads.
