Why isn’t App World available in every country, even if it’s just to get the FREE apps?

I understand that the have to sort out the payment issue for each county/carrier, but in the Dominican Republic we have BB’s by TWO carriers and no App World even for free apps!!!

Come on, RIM…

Hey Guys – and NickyHilton –

TechnoBeaver juss got a new macbook pro 13.3. I am in love! What an awesome machine!!!

@ perspective

What the hell kinda name is PERSPECTIVE??? P – you’re a one note wonder. Always the same one-sided, ahem, pespective. Pro apple, anti BlackBerry. Ponderous man, and boring. Really boring. You and StevenGlansburg sittin in a tree… Seriously. What’s the deal? You work for apple in some capacity? You need new material.

@ Roger A

You don’t speak for me, pal. Mebbe you should stop saying “we” and “us.”

I like the upgrade. Not ideal but better. And my f*****’ Bold is the bomb so it’s all good.

Thank you for your cooperation,

Conrad P. Hernandez, Jr.

So Roger A, how do you really feel?

Dear RIM/BlackBerry

Your shoddy attempt at a new version of your App World has left a very unpleasant taste in our mouths. Not only have majority of people been getting an error message that our phones can not connect to the BlackBerry App World Server, because BlackBerry Servers can not detect our phones signal be it Wifi or cellular…
But those who have been able to connect find that some of their paid programs are null and void from their transactions, leading them to re-buy the same applications.
How is this being resolved? Why hasnt RIM put out a press release? Why was this version even released if RIM couldnt back it up, and provide service for it?

Seriously…WE WANT SOME ANSWERS!

Before I go and scream at my wireless provider for a problem I doubt is theirs, Id like to give you a piece of my mind and suggest that before you do something, TEST IT, then TEST IT AGAIN, and when you are done testing it, TEST IT AGAIN AND YET AGAIN AND YET AGAIN to ensure your subscribers/users/customers are not pissed off and head for an iPhone for a superior app store.

Always,

ROGER A

Works perfect on a Verizon Tour.

I’m not sure why people thought you’d be able to run apps from the memory card by upgrading App World…. It’s not App World that would allow that, it’s Blackberry’s crappy OS that prevents it… Until Blackberry releases an OS that supports running applications from a memory card, it’s going to be impossible… Don’t look for 3rd party software or even their own programs to fix that, it’s going to have to be an OS patch.

I just upgraded and found that “My World” has “forgotten” about several apps that I paid for. I’m guess RIM just screwed me. Thanks RIM!

This runs a LOT smoother…now maybe I won’t have to do a soft reset every time I go to app world.

I really wish they would design blackberries to extend the system memory onto the media card ala windows readyboost and nokia maemo. I bet these things will boot up in seconds if that happened. I used that option on my Nokia N800 all the time with a 2GB card and it really helped out.

I think App World jumped the shark at version 1.1.0.10.

I am having the same problem. I have a Verizon Curve it keeps giving me the same error saying it will not connect.

Hmm, I’m trying to register my new Tour and it looks like there’s a blackberry outage going on (which is a huge pain since now I’m phoneless). That might be why ray can’t access the Appworld?

I just downloaded it to my verizon curve ota and now every time I open appworld I get an error that says it can’t connect to the appworld servers. All of my other apps are able to access the web. Anyone else having this problem?

RIM really dropped the ball on the app install part. Their website made it sound like you could save it to a memory card instead of the device memory and instead it’s just an archive. Pretty weak. Oh welll, I guess Aerize Card Loader is still king for freeing up BlackBerry app memory.
