    Is it possible to record phone calls on the BB? How is it done?

    No it's not possible. You can get third party equipment from Ebay or other electronics store i.e. Maplins.

    I am flying to Italy tomorrow morning. How do I turn off data, so that I do not incur silly charges, but still have the phone available? Ideally I would like to still have wifi on for email, but not incur data charges through my network.
    Your help and assistance is, as always, greatly appreciated.
  • To turn the data off go to Options > Network and Connections > Mobile Network then you should see Data Services, select off.

    Alternatively depending which network you're with ask them about Blackberry services abroad. I did this when I went to Norway didn't turn off Data Services and my monthly bill was approximately £70 (this was 2009). Blackberry compress their data so they are not as data hungry as some mobiles.

    I know how to change the password on the BB, but how do I remove the password altogether?
