@ david b

I created an auto text to type my email address. When I type a certain 2 letter sequence it automatically types the address.

quick comment to see if any one knows whats up. but i was just testing the “myver” to see what would happen and all of a sudden it tells me i’m running 4.5.0.81. That was a surprise to me since i have been running .69 for months now and NEVER updated to .81. Can anyone think of a reason it would update to .81 on its own? Weird.

I wish there was a shortcut for auto-pasting my default email address in text fields while browsing. I get so tired of typing it in on all the blog sites. Akin to above we would need “myemail”.

Better yet would be a scrollable list of text entries from the Blackberry button. So if I hit the button in a browser text field, a “text” popout menu entry appears that let’s me select from a list of predefined entries to use. Probably some 3rd party already wrote that app and I just haven’t found it yet.
