MyBlackBerry Registration Now Open For Everyone?!?

My BlackBerry Now Open For All!

MyBlackBerry was launched quite some time ago now and seemingly, off to a rough start. I really don't quite understand why RIM chose to make it an invite only system for so long, especially considering the fact they made the announcements and everything for it, though if I had to venture a guess I'd blame it on RIM's legal team for slowing down the process. In any event, it seems as though registration is indeed open for all at this time so if you have not signed up already, now is the time to check it out -- make it quick, just in case RIM decides to change their mind again.

PS: Feel free to laugh at Kevin for being considered a newbie ;)

Is this open to the UK?

 
 
Posted by sevenpowers Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Just choose Canada or US, I'm in Spain on Vodafone and it doesn't give me that option so I'm now in the US on AT&T ;-)

Cannot activate my account, keeps timing out!

I've tried to register twice. Both times it takes me back to the home screen after I click submit and when I enter my email/password I get denied as no such user.

 
 
Posted by tulgrndr Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I had to try 2-3 times before it would allow me to register, so keep trying, seems the site is quite busy!

 
 
Posted by jlawler4 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Got in after a few tries, RIM hates Google Chrome I can tell you that...

 
 
Posted by Griffspen Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Worked for me and I'm in. Nothing has caught my eye yet.....

 
 
Posted by blak8830 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

sometimes just selecting from a pulldown menu kicks you out to the login page - seems like a seriously broken process

 
 
Posted by JDWallace Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Sweet! After two clicks to register I'm in.

 
 
Posted by ozlonzo Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Any chance of this being made available to users outside North America?

 
 
Posted by flamingkitties Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Well I'm in the UK, but I picked USA T-Mobile and so far, I've not got my registration confirmation email - perhaps it's smart to my .co.uk email address. Arf.

I used Chrome and it worked

Errr, what is this? Seems like a simple social networking site for Blackberry users..just like, er, the site I'm on right now :)

 
 
Posted by miller7796 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I give up. I keep getting an endless loop of going back to the login screen when I click submit. Part of the problem could be that we're still on IE6 at work. I'll try it at home tonight with Firefox, if I remember. Otherwise, I'll just stick with Facebook.

 
 
Posted by mccx33 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I had to login with my USERNAME/password rather than EMAIL/password

 
 
Posted by GinaR1173 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I don't see anything special about this. I can't even create a profile page! Better off here!!

 
 
Posted by ricgrego Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Open just for US and Canada. :(

 
 
Posted by briankeith513 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Yeah, guys, there seems to be a LOT of issues, with registering, logging in, updating profile info, and just about everything else. I finally got it to work, sort of. I'm sure the issues will be ironed out soon.

 
 
Posted by dmkerr Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I have tried to register but about half way through it times out on me. Not Good.

 
 
Posted by AgentScribe Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Look me up: same screen name as above.

All you addicts are clogging up and bogging down the system. :)

Another BlackBerry site that sucks on the BlackBerry browser. Great job!

 
 
Posted by The Consigliere Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

but not too impressed, nothing really stands out & says WOW I really needed to join this site. Oh well, maybe it will come in handy down the road.

 
 
Posted by bradley1972 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

got in after two attempts.

 
 
Posted by Yandar Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

There is some wonderful errors on the site. Go and have a look for Bold cradles and chargers. See what pops up.

Posted by bradley1972 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

what would be a good thing to have is a shortcut icon from your homescreen.

 
 
Posted by dmkerr Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

UGH Registration is impossible!!!!!!!!!!

 
 
Posted by j.p.hatfield Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

site shows error when you click to register....

 
 
Posted by j.p.hatfield Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

so they STILL have issues...nice job RIM

 
 
Posted by onlineaddy Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I feel sad for RIM. They can't even hire a decent web developer. I am unable to register. Keeps complaining of timing out or some such nonsense.

 
 
Posted by hpbribeiro Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Ok, any good reason for the country option only list United States and Canada? What about the rest of us?

 
 
Posted by aothapoet Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

1st attempt on explorer worked. chrome rejected 3 times

 
 
Posted by tnewton3 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

must be overlaoded with a bunch of people trying to register. I can't stand it being reset 5 times in 3 minutes.

Garbage.

 
 
Posted by Navan Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I'm not up with the same user name I have on here!

 
 
Posted by eBud Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

so I worked through the questionaire from the bottom up. I'm in...ok, show me the magic...

 
 
Posted by belutz Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

bah... only US and Canada can register :|

 
 
Posted by clarkkentsm Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

This is kinda cool

 
 
Posted by experiment626 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Won't be replacing Crackberry or HoFo anytime soon. But it's got lots of potential.Had no problem signing up but the Forum is boring and the Threads are difficult to scroll thru.Still a work in progress.

 
 
Posted by sevenpowers Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

I'm in Spain on Vodafone and registered that I'm in the US on AT&T, just choose either US or Canada and a carrier and you're in...for what it's worth ;-)
I just don't get it why RIM would pull this crap for a forum, and like the Blackberry Blog it's lousy on the BB Browser, like I'm NOT going to view it on my Berry?

 
 
Posted by Lord Shaper Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Does RIM not notice that people in other countries use Blackberries as well? I'm in Australia and when I went to register it gave me the option of either US or Canada...

I guess it's going to be a wait for this as well as waiting for Appworld!

 
 
Posted by Janye Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

The 8230 is not an option to pic for the pearl flip !

 
 
Posted by tritan Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

wow,IE only what is up with that? No firefox support? Come on Rim.

 
 
Posted by CGI Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Whats the benefit of joining? I just don't see the value.

 
 
Posted by Tony Bag O Donuts Wednesday, Aug 26, 2009 1002 days ago

Neither do I

 
 
Posted by y0us3f Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

just for USA and CANADA :) no love for middle east !

 
 
Posted by redman12 Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Blackberry Pearl 8120 is not on the tab when I register...

 
 
Posted by vaughnq Tuesday, Aug 25, 2009 1003 days ago

Dont live in the US nor Canada and as a result it seems no one else outside of there exists. Cant register...

 
 
Posted by i4get75 Wednesday, Aug 26, 2009 1003 days ago

Ok, I signed up, checked it out a few times today. The discussion boards are a wreck. Hard to find anything without scrolling through multiple pages. The app section is very lack-luster. The profile section leaves a lot to be desired. And you'd figure since it's a Blackberry social site that it would have some central hub for exchanging and meeting other users, but at last, it does not.

It gets an F for FAIL for me.

 
 
Posted by neiltluck Thursday, Aug 27, 2009 1001 days ago

So how comes us UK residents don't get to play. Only US and Canada?

 
 
Posted by yeti Thursday, Aug 27, 2009 1001 days ago

when signing on u can choose username. when activated only ur real name shows. but there are folks that only show the username. probably from teh early, the closed testing days. no help section whatsover. no way to cancel membership again.
all in all, not a very userfriendly site. u need answers? stay here on crackberry.com and check the forums.

 
 
Posted by ddch Thursday, Aug 27, 2009 1001 days ago

Bummer, You can't register unless your in the US or Canada
