Has everyone noticed a little addendum to their device? It appears RIM pushed the BB Messenger Icon onto the home screen, and onto the Storm as a core application. The 607 build also brought with it 2.6Mb of device memory occupancy with no way to delete it.

The key tones I can live without. They kind of reminded me of a 1980's style casio LCD watch 🤣 Ok, not that bad!
