    Apps on the blackerry are dreadful anyway.
    My 8520 is just sitting there being neglected while my SGS2 gets all the fun.
    Can't wait til my contract is up with the blackberry.

    Re: News - BlackBerry owners compensated with £63 worth of apps

    I wonder who designed their data centre if one core switch is able to bring the whole network down...

    Cowboys.

    Re free money you can spend on the apps - has anyone seen the App World? Probably the whole store doesnt have apps for that £63 quid...

    Re: News - BlackBerry owners compensated with £63 worth of apps

    Has anyone actually been able to download these? On looking on the App World now, they all still seem to be their normal prices - only the Free Trials are, well, free?

    It's a good gesture, but apps aren't the greatest on it, and people more or less wasted a month of the bill on it.
