BlackBerry Bold thursday round-up

After reading threads all over CrackBerry.com, I have came to the conclusion that some BlackBerry Bold’s have memory issues, example taken from CrackBerry.com

“OS Version 4.6.0.125 (Platform 4.0.0.134) Mine had 20MB free out of the box.

A few hours later it had 5MB with no new apps, photos or other files added.

I deleted all the unused languages and had 40MB after the restart.

A few hours later I had 15MB.

If there is a memory leak, it can’t be blamed on a 3rd party app because I haven’t added any.

I was really hoping to have more room to play with on this unit.

Best regards,

A few other members reported the same issues. It seems like that this could be fixed with a firmware update.
On another note, people have also been complaining about the Bold’s browser being very slow to load and sometimes don’t even fully load the pages, even after waiting 3 minutes! (these sites were probably graphic rich also). The HotSpot browser is also slower than the Bold’s Internet Browser with 3G on. Also turning Javascript on the Bold “literally adds minutes”. I hope RIM can fix these issues with a software update of some kind!!!
