Anyone else get to enjoy the BlackBerry 6 - the OS - preview presented today at WES2010?!
check out my thoughts on my blog if you will - yes I included the original and circulating video from RIM.
http://seriousmobile.wordpres[....]ackberry-6-preview-titillates/
Just look at the video and how each person moves in the following advertisement for BlackBerry 6 preview that RIM gave earlier today to the public at WES2010!
Wow … not only do they move to the beat, but the OS moves with it too … very synergistically. I actually had to watch it 3 times to catch all that was going on. Why again is RIM shares down?! I think too many analysts have not just been drinking the Apple Kool Aid juice but I'll bet their suck'n the spoon that Apple has been serving them with the iPhone. This ad preview of OS 6 is light-years ahead of Symbian 3, iPhone OS, and even Android … just looks as robust as what we know and love on ALL our solid performing BlackBerry's.
There seems to be a NEW gesture - something I've only seen independent developers on S60 and recently Android take advantage of … shake or vibration control using the device built-in motion sensor. Look at the video again at time frame: 1:09 - 1:11. how does that Kool Aid taste now, How Does it Taste!).
Boom Boom Pow! - Big Chun!
Within the next few weeks I'll try my hand at posting directly from the Mac ...

Those with 9520 are going to LOVE OS 6.

The 9800 prototype is looking sweeter & sweeter.
BBM is also getting better.

Hey from what I know unless your carrier pushes or RIM release an offical update you can't install any of the leaked or just released OS's from a mac via the .exe method, you can only update via DM or if you try and run it through parallel or VMware. Not too sure about the last option I'm afriad.
Found this after searching around but it seems you need a dmg file?

EDIT
Some users on crackberry are saying if you back-up your current OS it'll create a folder with COD files etc. If you can download and extract the .exe OS and find those COD files and replace the ones in the backup folder and restore it should do it? I'm not too sure about this though.
I have installed the latest 8900 OS on my PC and zipped up all the files from the OS here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PW4PWXQY
And you have to scan through comments here to get the gist of what needs to be done.

and for a tutorial (although it's not exactly detailed)

Hope this helps you out

Welcome to Build Quality, proper firmware support, and a proper PIM smartphone that truely works on have its name (Phone). You'll love the BlackBerry more and more when you realize that even with the Blurr, MediaScape, or other wireless sync add-on's for linux like platforms but ONLY RIM has proper APIs that work.
waibun_lee, awesome FIND!! Where have YOU BEEN!?!!
@Reg,
No you want the 9100, SureType rocks! Not that T9 junk.
I'm really debating getting the 9100 just for old-times sake.
Honestly I'm seriously loving my Bold 9700 - though not a fan of how screwed up providers' service books ads spam my BB or how shoddy he "Enhanced Gmail Plugin" works.
Cheers all and don't be strangers keep this thread alive or add us all on BBM>

That's what I'm saying ... "where HAVE you BEEN?!" as in you kicked off with an incredible post!! Nice going, looking forward to further posts. Right now I'm still VERY green in the Mac OS world so I'm crawling and learning every week.
I still do windows but only as employment incoming.
now I'm HOPING someone can get RIM's latest SDK for OS 5 to work on Eclipse 3.5 for Mac OS X natively.

Well Tomorrow is the big iPhone announcement by Apple's WWDC - which runs a full week long.
Personally I doubt I'll be swayed by the iPhone - I'm aware others will just cause of what it'll do.
Specific interest to me is how the show off usefulness of Video chat - will it conform to industry standards for corporate video chat infrastructure? New deals with MS with Office Communicator 2009 R2 or other services/products? MobileMe account changes and service rates! This affects me as a Mac user - new convert (slow progression) since I have 2 Mac's at home now. Mac Mini updates.
Personally I'm seriously looking forward to the BlackBerry 9800 Slider announcement. This device is going to rock the socks off the competition - even the iPhone in the hardware spec (save for video camera; RIM just isn't down with higher video recording just yet). Infrastructure for consumers and education (iTunes U; for Colleges/University/High-School/Middle School) is just light years beyond the competition. This is Mac's space.
But the quality I enjoy of my 9700 will be hard to top, and with the 9800 Bold slider coming soon with BlackBerry 6 ... "I can't wait" like Sleepy Brown said.
