It's funny to see even a winmo fanboy so in awe of the Bold. I can't wait to get mine.

On teh emulator I've been going to the menu to do that Nice to know there is a quicker step.

Now is there a way to redispaly the keyboard without acessing the menu?

There is a way to do that. All you do is slide your finger up in a check-mark like shape at the bottom of the screen. Its shown in the tutorials in the setup menu.

would be great if you could set one of the side keys to instantly show the keyboard in any application. I don't know if that is already possible or not, but it doesn't sound too complicated and maybe a 3rd party app could do it.

I just learned this, right after I found this site. It's in the tips and tricks for the Storm. From the Home page, go to options, scroll down to Screen/keyboard and click. On the next page, scroll down to where you see "Left Side Convenience Key Opens:" and click the button. After that, just choose the app you want (like the keyboard).

Can you use the blue tooth feature to connect you Blackberry Storm to a laptop? If so what can you do with this? copy files from you laptop to your Storm?

Open a new message turn your phone side ways and hi-light the "I" key for about 4 seconds.
