Wow, blast from the past. I wrote "the original" PowerShell that a few people above have mentioned.

They can have the name - I agree that it sucks (hey, what do you want from me? I wrote it when I was 19, and I was probably drunk at the time :)

Re: Is BlackBerry the new iPod?

Higher resolution than the Treo? The 8700 has a 320x240 screen, which is higher than the Treo 700w, which is 240x240 due to Windows Mobile limitations, but lower than the 650, which has a gorgeous 320x320 display.

(for the record, I am a former Treo 650 user who switched to a BB 8700 about 6 months ago and haven't looked back... but from an aesthetic point of view, the Treo trounces all over the BlackBerry)

I installed this yesterday, and it broke all my recurring appointments - starting next week, all my recurring appointments were an hour ahead (only on the BlackBerry - not on the Exchange server or in Outlook). I had to delete and recreate them all in order for them to be correct.

What decade is this again? Shouldn't this stuff be sorted out by now?
