1) When reading through the 8800 posts in this forum, everyone refers to Options ---> blah ---> blah. I don't see an "options" from my desktop. Where is this options section?
2) I have a pc and a mac at home, and i use the mac more often. Is the desktop manager for pc better than pocketmac? whats the difference/stability? please only reply if you've actually used both. thanks
3) I have BES and my work email is all set up. Where do i go to get setup for my email from yahoo/gmail/aim/et? thanks.
4) i used to have a treo 650, and i liked how the phone would lock after it sleeps because when in my pocket, buttons constantly get pressed. Can you set something like this up on the 8800?
5) I get massive amounts of email from work. Can i set no notifications for email from work, but notifications from personal emails and text messages?
I apologize if these are dumb questions, im new to this. thanks!~

1) Depending on the theme, it will be called Options or Settings...usually a wrench or similar symbol.
2) Might try the Mac forum here on the site. Many Mac questions have been answered there by actual Mac users. Desktop Manager won't run on a Mac, fyi, and isn't a PIM, as I believe PocketMac is.
3) Easiest way is to log in to your carrier's BIS website. For Cingular, it's:
https://bis.na.blackberry.com/html?brand=mycingular
4) There should be a keylock button on your home screen. You can also set your convenience key to do this.
5) Notification options can be found under your profiles. Edit the profile to change notification for specific items.
