JiveTalk™ for BlackBerry® 1.0.1 Preview Build for 8100, 8300, 8800 Series

Thank you for your interest in trying JiveTalk for BlackBerry® 1.0.1 preview build. This is a public preview of the file transfer capability in JiveTalk for 4.2 OS devices only. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE PRODUCTION BUILD, CLICK ON THE DOWNLOAD LINK ABOVE.

In order to use this build and the file transfer feature, you must have a 8100 Pearl, 8300 Curve, or 8800 seres BlackBerry device. All earlier BlackBerry models, including 8700 series models running 4.2 OS, do not have the expanded memory (MicroSD) capabilities required for this function.

The production 1.0.1 version for 4.0 and 4.1 OS builds, when available, will not support the file transfer feature due to the above mentioned limitations.

Before proceeding, please first read the readme file for this build.
