Solved!
Go to Solution.

you can compare the features of both models here:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/devices/compare/product-attr-compare.jsp?products=1528&products=1786
here is what I think matters:
8530 is better because:
CDMA device including 3G
trackpad instead of trackball
got media keys on the top
rubber all around
better hearing aid support
8900 is better because:
GSM/GPRS/EDGE device (works everywhere in the world)
form factor is more elegant
camera is 3.2MPix instead of 2MPix
more Bluetooth profiles accepted
screen definition is 480x360 instead of tiny 320x240
battery lasts 20% longer

    I have a 4 year old macbook pro that is not running very well. It heats up quickly and becomes so hot you can hardly touch the bottom. It is also running slow and has been freezing more lately. What can I do to get to running better again?

  • My iPhone was stolen and I have contacted the police who are using the meid number to locate.  How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?

    My iPhone was stolen.  I used Find My iPhone app to lock it and display a message.  The phone has not connected to the internet to locate it.  I contacted the police and they have taken my meid number.  How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?  Are there other ways the theif can use it.  I was told once they put in a new sim card and use it, whatever software the police have, it will show up.

    Honestly? In the US (I can't speak to other countries, though I doubt it works much differently in a lot of the world) The police took your report and filed it either in their computers or, on paper. They will now not think of this again. The only time it will cross anyones mind is if, in the course of entering information into evidence about items recovered or seized at a crime scene, the serial number of an iPhone that was found/seized happens to match yours, in which case you will be contacted.
    The police in the US can and will do nothing to 'blok' the phone and it's not worth their time to try and locate it unless you know for a fact that it was stolen by a big time drug lord, master criminal, or some other such prime target and they can get a court order to track the location of the phone in order to locate this individual for your own purposes.  If they do that, they'll probably keep him under surveilance for a year or so before they act.
    Basically, the police don't care about your phone. If they find it, they will give it back to you. They are not, however, going to go looking for it. They have better things to do.
    I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.

    I have replied to you three times now without reply. I DID NOT authorise a payment of £9.99 for NowTV. What is the solution to getting my money refunded. I think you assume I will go away after being Ignored. No I will not go away. I find now that you have DISABLED MY APPLE ID. Is this a punishment you use to anyone who takes up a stand against charges being made unauthorised on their account?. Please tell me why you have disabled my account. When will my account be restored? If not when will you refund ALL my purchases made to APPLE/ITUNES? I can then move on to another brand and hopefully better customer service. After reading articles regarding APPLE ID DISABLED it appears common practice from your company to DISABLE anyone's account if they question unknown charges. Please reply with your intentions regarding  the unauthorised payment and the DISABLING of my account.

  • Photoshop on Windows or Mac? What system is better?

    Hi I'm thinking on buying new laptop mostly to create stuff in Photoshop, sometimes After Effects videos and to update my community blog [link removed by moderator]
    My friend is saying that I should buy Mac Book because it will work better and faster etc. even with 8GB of RAM. Is it true? Windows Laptops with 16GB of RAM are much more cheaper than Apple... What will be better for me? Thanks in advance.

    Which Platform is better may change over time.  When Photoshop first started you did not have a choice.  Thomas developed Display for the Mac and demonstrated it to Adobe and Photoshop history began.   That was back around 1990 it was Mac Only I think Adobe began to market a Windows version in 1992.  At the time both platforms were nowhere near as robust as they are today. Mac OS 7 and 9 where  poor and buggy and windows was full of bugs.   Mac were using the Power PC processor and PC lintel 8088 family.   Intel the came out with 386 that gave PC mainframe features and Windoes NT and Windows 2000 were developed  PC were becoming of age.  Steve Jobs returned to Apple and IBM would not produce a power efficient PowerPC for Steve's desired laptop  had also use Unix for his Nextstep adventure and knew its virtues. So in a single step he abandoned Apples's OS and the PowerPC. processor.  So now Apple Mac and IBM compatible PC are using the same hardware Processors.  Both platforms have a robust OS these days both are  preemptive multitasking systems.  Mac OS base design is Unix like.  Unix was developed by AT&T Lucent lab in the 1960 time-frame for the PDP 11. Design to be modular and portable where code would be easy to developed using  simple module using pipe-ing data just flows input to output.  Apple is more controlling then Microsoft IMO neither are open system but Apple seems more closed then Microsoft to me.   This has advantages and disadvantages.  Application operation constrain to work the way Apple dictates users get a more consistent environment but less software and Hardware less upgradable.  Photoshop on both platform run into problem easily seen just read through this forum.  I use windows for I had to at work and a gained a lot of knowledge about windows over the years. I'm not about to change.  I also had to use Apple OS 7 and 9 for a little while.  If you going to use computers you will have to learn quite a bit about the OS installed on it.  All computers need to be maintained and backed up.  If you only going to use one application you may be able to get a turn key system.    Find the best products for the jobs you need to do.   You may find you need more then one machine and OS.

  • What are the better load/performance testing tools available for Flex Application with BlazeDS RO?

    In my application is designed with Flex3, ActionScript3, BlazeDS Remote Objects.
    Just i tried with OPENSTA but i cant do the dynamic parameterization in their generated scripts because the response of the calls is binary values and also we cant get the response using with SCL language.
    While testing with OPENSTA with HttpService, i can do the dynamic parameterization and got the response.
    can give the information about the below questions
    whether we can do dynamic parameterization with OPENSTA for Flex Remote objects?
    and  what are the better load/performance tools available for Flex Remote Objects?

    Your approach is fine, depending on how many and what type of CFCs you are talking about. If they are "singletons" - that is, only one instance of each CFC is needed to be in memory and can be reused/shared from multiple parts of your application - caching them in the application scope is common.  Just make sure they are thread safe ("var" or local.* all your method variables).
    You might consider taking advantage of a dependency injection framework, such as DI/1 (part of the FW/1 MVC framework), ColdSpring, or WireBox (a module of the ColdBox platform that can be used independently).  They have mechanisms for handling and caching singletons.  Then you wouldn't have to go to the application scope to get your CFC instances.

  • What's the better approach?

    Hi, I was just making a program that access a DB through JDBC, and I got myself into this dilemma
    What's the better approach to make a connection to a DB?
    approach #1(use of singleton pattern)
    import java.sql.*;
    public class DBConnection {
        private ResultSet rs;
        private Connection conn;
        private PreparedStatement ps;
        private static boolean singleton = false;
        private DBConnection() throws Exception{
            Class.forName("driverPath").newInstance();
         conn = DriverManager.getConnection("url", "user", "pass");
         singleton = true;
        public static DBConnection getInstance() throws Exception{
            if(singleton)
             return null;
            return new DBConnection();
        protected void finalize() throws Throwable {
            //close the connection and release resources...
            singleton = false;
        //Methods to make DB querys and stuff.     
    }approach #2 (make a connection only when doing querys)
    public class DBConnection {
        private ResultSet rs;
        private Connection conn;
        private PreparedStatement ps;
        public DBConnection() throws Exception {
            Class.forName("driverPath").newInstance();
        //Just some random method to access the DB
        public ArrayList<Row> selectAllFromTable() {
            ArrayList<Row> returnValue = new ArrayList<Row>();
         try {
             conn = DriverManager.getConnection("url", "user", "pass");
             //make querys and fill the arraylist with rows from the table
         } catch(Exception ex) {
             returnValue = null;
             ex.printStackTrace();
         } finally {
             if(ps != null)
                 ps.close();
                if(rs != null)
              rs.close();
             if(conn != null)
              conn.close();
         return returnValue;
    }I know this classes maybe don't even compile and I don't handle the Exceptions, I'm just trying to make a point about how to manage the connection
    So, what it's the better approach in your opinions? #1? #2? neither?

    Hi,
    I'm resurrecting this thread to ask is this approach OK?
    I'm trying to make a single MySql JDBC connection accessible throughout the model.
    I'm planning to use it in a Swing application. Whilst I realise the Swing apps are inherently multi-threaded, everything I plan to do can (I think) be done within the constraint that all access to model happens on the EDT, and the user will just have to wear any unresponsiveness.
    package datatable.utils;
    import java.sql.Connection;
    import java.sql.DriverManager;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    abstract public class MySqlConnection {
         public static final String URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/test";
         public static final String USERNAME = "keith";//case sensitive
         private static final String PASSWORD = "chewie00";//case sensitive
         private static final Connection theConnection;
         static {
              String driverClassName = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
              try {
                   Class.forName(driverClassName);
                   theConnection = DriverManager.getConnection(URL, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   throw new DAOException("Failed to register JDBC driver class \""+driverClassName+"\"", e);
         public static Connection get() {
              return(theConnection);
    }Is there a better solution short of c3po? Which I played with, but couldn't work out how to configure.
    Thanx guys (and uj),
    keith.

  • I need to edit sections of several songs into a single track on a CD for a dressage test. Any ideas what software I need to get to achieve this?

    Audacity 1.2.5 is an audio editor in which you can assemble and edit your recordings: it's free. I don't think it would burn CDs - you would have to reimport the finished recording into iTunes and burn from there.
    Amadeus Lite is $24.99 in the Mac App Store and is in my opinion a better product: it can burn your audio CD directly.
    If this is a one-off job you might as well use Audacity: if you are planning on doing this sort of thing at all often you would probably be better off either with Amadeus Lite or Amadeus Pro ($59.99) though this latter may well be over-specified for you as it includes multi-track editing.

  • Hi, I have HTC Legend on Android 2.2. I just can't download Firefox on my phone, what should I do to get Firefox on my phone?

    Hi, I have HTC Legend on Android 2.2. I just can't download Firefox on my phone, because after scanning the QR code and clicking on the link "download for Android" there appears a "Not found" mistake window which informs me that requested file has not been found. What should I do to get Firefox mobile on my phone? Thanks in advance.

    So its really useful that you guys do NOT mention this in the linked sys req page:http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/mobile/platforms/
    but in the deep in the system hidden wiki page. Please change that! So much people try to download FF mobile beta and have no clue why they cant even download it.

    adobe support is hopeless, there must be a better way, if not it might be better to get a different movie program. is anyone having the same problem? 

    This is like buying a GM car and being told to talk to otherGM customers on how to fix your car yourself.  It it the blind leading the blind.   I have wasted many days and weeks because I cannot find solutions.  I have rarely gotten a solution from any similar forum, and more often been told by other members that I should buy what they have or that I should not want to make this or that type a disc, etc., and rarely a suggestion that is useful.

  • What is the Method to get record from DB as Date fornat??

    Halo, i want to know what is the method to get the data from database which is store it in date format.
    Previously, i am using the getDate() to get the data together with the while (rs.next() ) method after using the "select" statement to get the data from data base.
    Here is the example when i retrieve record from database:
    java.util.Date date1 = new java.util.Date();
    String getRecord = "SELECT * FROM employee "
    ResultSet rs = db. execSQL(getRecord);
    while(rs.next() ){
    String name = rs.getString("name");
    date1 = rs.getDate("date");
    }notes: method getDate() had deprecated since JDK version 1.1.
    So, i need to know what is the method to get the date record??
    Thank you.....

    Halo, ...Yeah, Halo! Love that game...
    Um, use getDate(). ResultSet.getDate() is not deprecated. If you think so, then you better go reread the API docs, cuz you're reading the wrong ones.

  • What would be better a new iPhone 3gs or a used iPhone 4?

    what would be better a new iPhone 3gs or a used iPhone 4? The iphone would be 2yrs old and belonged to my sister. I am weighing my iphone options, help!

    I'm sorry I should have been more specific with the situation. I currently own an iPhone 3gs which is still under warranty, I am going to get a new one because I am having some issues with the phone. However, my sister offered me her old Iphone 4 if i want it. Now I am not sure whether I should take her 2 year old iphone 4 or just keep the 3gs I get from the apple store...???

  • Is it worth getting another iPad, or is it better to get a less flashy, less well-known product?

    My iPad was just stolen while I was sitting in a public park.   I take responsibility for putting it down on the bench, my error.  I always keep it in my backpack when it is not in my hands.  Talking to the police and reading public announcements, I know it is best not to flaunt good electronics.
    Since it is only wi-fi and not 3G, I could not track it using Find my iPhone.   I did hit the remote wipe instruction. 
    With that in mind,  I was wondering if I should get a non-Apple product that I can use in a park or carry in a subway and not worry about it being so desirable to thieves.  I loved my iPad, but if you can't relax with your tablet and to also use it for reading books or news, it loses some of its value. 
    In the same vein, I avoid taking out my iPhone on the subway and on the street.  Maybe it's better to get a Droid which isn't so attractive?
    I thought I'd reach out to the true beleivers in the Apple Communities for your insights.
