It looks like RIM is finally starting to try and ease users lives. They let everybody know at the developer keynote that they will be doing away with the annoying registration form you have to fill out with junk information every time you want to download any software from RIM.
They did not specify if this form will be removed for both developer and consumer downloads but its great to see that RIM is working on fixing these little kinks. Can’t wait for this!

they realized that more than half the people who download files directly from their site don’t ever put actual information in anyway… at least i don’t.

Its about time, I wonder if they got any useful data from that form? I always put periods for every field and it always took.
