Anyone realized/knows the difference that this new BB download does? I accepted it on my phone but all looks exactly as before.

I think the point of the download is for you to use as a shortcut to YW.

Oh was I supposed to get a YWN icon? I didn’t. I still go on through my browser.

I thought this new update will work quicker or something. It takes quite a while to open a page on the BB.

I was also hoping that the YWN BB version will skip all photos from advertisers si the page will load quicker, and so that the phone shouldn’t fill up with so much junk.

The YWN PDA version never opens any photos – just text. Something is wrong on your end.

Oops..sorry…just realized a nice little YWN icon on my menu!! Cool!

EDITOR- are you talking about photo ads? Bec when I open any page on YN, I gotta wait for all ads to load and I see them full color on my page. Makes the loading veeeerrrry slow.(Loading images)

Yes editor. On my BB I see all your full color ads. First the page loads- loading data, when that’s done it starts loading images…takes forever.

When I use the BB shortcut to YWN main page I see no ads/graphics, only text. When I link to the Coffee Room, then all ads are displayed. Perhaps a BB link for the CR is in order?

I don’t have a blackberry but I do have a browser on my phone that I sometimes try to use for YW. The PDA version of the site doesn’t work on my browser but my browser uses Google to reformat the page for the phone. Sometimes it will skip to the main content and just have a link to “go to top of page”. Other times it gives me the page from the top. It is very slow and hard to use so I don’t use it often.

JPhone- when I go to YW shortcut, at first glance it looks like only texts, but somewhere along the page there is one or two photo ads.

I did realize however that when I load the page for the CR, there are about 6 ads…that takes so long to load. Can we have only text on the BB?
