To be honest I am more concerned with the question of does it finally support a2dp aka the stereo Bluetooth profile stack? I have been waiting so very long for my pearl to support it. ~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

Oh, forgot to mention:

ColorPearl and EmPower Mailviewer both do not work on my Pearl anymore.

ColorPearl does not work at all (uninstalled it, have to try a clean new installation)
Empower does not allow to change its options and does not display the mail content at all.

Re: Firmware 4.3 works slower that 4.2 ?

Will it support recording Video? I was also wondering if there is anyway that it will support Wi-Fi? Or is this more than a software upgrade? Would it require a hardware upgrade as well?

As answered above, it does not do video recording. It also will not make wifi available, as that is a hardware...

Re: Firmware 4.3 works slower that 4.2 ?

thanks for proving me wrong ok since I'm for the media part of the pearl. Could you scroll thru other songs while one is currently playing? I take they added ad2p support. Fullscreen video support also?

Re: Firmware 4.3 works slower that 4.2 ?

Actually, I think I would just put in a few words here. Its always good to see new stuff coming out, but I am really waiting for the APIs of 4.3 to be released. The last time APIs were released weeeks after the devices were out in the market. That left lots of users with new devices on which their old apps just wont work! Not a good situation for either the users or the developers.

I am just hoping its the other way round this time. Maybe RIM will release APIs for 4.3 so that devs can upgrade their code to work on 4.3 and users can continue to use their loved apps without a break. Lets hope

Sick? Hmmm... go take some meds.

Anyway- the L- theme has been talked about and out for a while, but just not on the Pearl. To me it doesn't look that great at all with all the icons LITERALLY running into one another and overlapping. That looks sloppy to me.

BUT I believe a leak is in store for everyone VERY SOON I hope. Who will ever know? Really? That's right- no one. In fact all anyone with the 4.3 really needs to do is save the file to a flash drive, go to Kinkos or a library, create a new Pinstack username on their UNKNOWN computer, temporarily copy over the 4.3 file and simply upload it to a big file hoster site and copy that link to Pinstack. Sounds easy enough right? Yes! Because it is.

Please let us play with this guys. This is huge right now.
