If you PM me, I can send you my email address.

Thanks very much!!!

I wish I had taken screenshots because I would have blogged out something like this. The guy who figured this out is awesome, but unfortuantly the steps are lacking a little bit of flavor. For instance, this was my first time using the Apploader, so I didn't realize that it automatically picked up the two asx files I had copied.

So I was looking for them in the list of items with check boxes and didn't see them, so tried to add them using the button only to find out that they were indeed already scheduled for sync.

That whole process should really be described.

It is totally worth it though. I can't believe the force that PTT app on people. That is so stupid.

***PLEASE NOTE***
This method works for some, others it DOES NOT. If you decide to use this method, and it doesn't work, here is the fix (if you receive app 200 error after installing OS)

1) uninstall the OS that you just installed, from your PC - in add/remove programs.
2) reboot PC and reinstall the OS again - to your PC
3) edit the blackberry.alx file using this thread/how to
http://blackberryforums.pinstack.com...or_themes.html

to delete the ptt feature, simply follow THIS path exactly (AFTER you install the OS back on your PC) and delete the file.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\8300-v4.2.2.114_P2.4.0.53\Java

the digits in red may be different, but as long as its the 8300 OS you will be fine
