The only problem I have with it is copying the web address of the page you're on. I can't figure out how to do it. You can look at the page properties and see the address, but I can't figure out how to copy it. I usually end up firing up the Blackberry Browser and googling the page so I can copy the address.

People rave and rave about how great email is on the Blackberry (and, honestly, I believe it), but I had no idea it was so dependent on Blackberry's web services to be good. I agree that Mobile Safari is the real game changer. Just friday I was scootering to a little get together with some friends and was using Google Maps on the iPhone as my directions. Well, Google Maps was wrong, so I had to jump on the web to get the name and address of the place. It was so simple and easy, that I didn't realize it at the time what a complex operation I was doing and how I would have hated the experience with my Treo - even with Opera mini.

Perhaps the details would make a good follow-up post.

You're struggling with the browser, you're struggling with the mail-sending capabilities, you're struggling with the SIM card-related bugginess.
