Sent from my BlackBerry Wireless Handheld

Perhaps it's me, but I find this message tacked on the end of BlackBerry emails extremely tedious. Do they want to show off that they have a BlackBerry, or do they not know how to turn it off / change it? Start up the Desktop Manager, go into Redirector Settings and at the bottom you will find your signature. I have changed mine to my name and my phone number, because I think people should use the 'phone more and hide less behind email.

In the vague hope that someone from BlackBerry gets to read this, you have a great device for quick emails, but could you add some features to Version 2 please?

• Out of the box, the Calendar sync does not work at all. On the system we have here, we use Outlook and the sync in Desktop Manager says sync with Outlook - doesn't work. You have to change it to BlackBerry Wireless Sync. Obvious?!
• Now you can accept and decline appointments on the BlackBerry. Where is the Tentative? Where is the Forward?
• Attachments!?!?!? Enough said.
• Webpages - most of the ones I want to go to need Java.

I personally think that IM, VOIP, texting etc are all going to grow exponentially. So I sit here in the hope that one day someone will invent a truly useful device, designed from the end-user's point of view. In the meantime, I'll stick to sending Owls.
