    Yeah, that's a huge forum. When I first got my BlackBerry I asked a handful of questions and got speedy replies. The downside is that it's hard to maintain a community-feeling, which makes it more of a resource (questions and answers) rather than a community with close-knit relationships.

    They have been at it for many many years. Their subject matter is a very popular subject. They also have an online store that pulls a lot of traffic. They are pretty much one of the best if not the best known forum for blackberry. IMHO

    Ah I see, and yes it must be really hard to keep any kind of community on that scale, but looks like it is aplace to also promote sales, so a different kind of place to what I am used to! looks a Good site though for people who want info, so would you recommend it to others?;)

    Yeah I discovered that forum a couple of months ago.

    If I remember rightly, it's only been up since 2007 :lol2:

    I've gone there for some advice, suggestions, etc. It's a great resource site for those of us BlackBerry users :)

    Also doesn't hurt that Jim Rome has pimped out the forum a couple times on his national radio show.
