There awesome, told brent to get 1 and he loves it. i'll tell you some off the best apps to get when you get it

any apps i shud get and where from?

Download blackberry app world via ur BB browser, this has most of them.

Apss i have
Viigo - updated sports scores ,schedules etc. You can also use it for rss feed for latest news, i use mine for lufc news.
Flickr - You should alreadt have this, i didnt make much use of it at the start but now love it
Facebook - If you have a facebook account
msn - As above
Google maps - Brilliant app. Better than blackberry maps
Quick pull - if you ever need to reboot you dont need to take the battery out
Twitterberry - if u have a twitter account
Betfair - good app, no need to go on the betfair website.

Few more tips i found.
- Use UMA all the time wen ur in a wifi area (mainly home) fpr PERFECT reception
- Move all you icons around for easy by pressing the blackberry button
- The case it pretty cool, it locks it automatically when you put it in (some magnetic sensor or summit)
- You need to give the case a few days to "wear in", you'll probs find it pretty tight to start with

I'll tell you if i find any more cool apps

cheers, took me 2-3 hours to setup correctly last night, but its an awsome phone and lots of cool features/apps. The gps is really fast took a few pics and it auto loaded upto my facebook will have to get google maps. Your right about the case its too tight atm.

Yea, its a very cool phone. You should buy an 8 gig SDHC card if you want to use it for music etc, only £11 http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/4-/5973047/Play-com-8GB-Micro-SDHC-Memory-Card/Product.html

Theres an app you can buy called berrybuzz or something, so the LED changes colour with different types off messages, Blue for facebook, red for texts, yellow for emails etc etc. Think im gonna buy it

That's a class 4 SD card, someone was advising me to get Class 6 or better for mine (the G1).  I have no idea what these classes mean, so am going to have a look now - but if anyone knows, please post and save me some time.

Edit - oh it's dead simple.  It's the speed of data transfer.  So class 4 is twice as quick as class 2, and class 6 is 50% faster than class 4.  Not a big issue most of the time I wouldn't have thought.  On the G1 there's an option to run apps from the SD card (rather than the phone memory), so if you're doing anything like that the speed would be an issue.  But for storage and access of media files, meh.
