Can I send a PIN message from a PC? application? or internet?
they seem to be delivered MUCH faster than email or SMS and have an auto "received" indicator...

PIN must come from another BB.

NJBlackBerry · 12-14-2005, 06:10 PM

Nope. Blackberry to Blackberry only. Sorry...

I just used my pin to send an email to myself on my bb and it doesnt work.

What does that even mean? You used your pin to send an e-mail?
Explain.

Huh? ...That makes no sense. You can't send an email using a PIN...it's not another email address, it's a totally different type of system.

southwestcomm · 12-14-2005, 08:20 PM

Notice he said "it doesn't work"....

ShaneToronto · 12-14-2005, 08:25 PM

hmm. can anyone explain this to me?
I tried entering my phone number on my tv remote control but no matter what i did and no matter how many times i tried, none of my phones would ring. I even tried calling from different remotes and removing and reinserting the batteries. I am stumped!
Sorry, I had to play along. :(

You probably need to have your remote unlocked. Contact TVREMOTEUNLOCK.COM and they can handle it.

Pinning yourself has been known to cause blindness. Not that I would know anything about that.

NJBlackBerry · 12-14-2005, 10:11 PM

Only pin yourself until you need glasses. That's common sense.

After that, switch to emailing yourself....but be careful, it has been known to cause hairy palms.

NJBlackBerry · 12-15-2005, 06:35 AM

Does it also cause hairy treos?

In the BES 4.1 Manager you will have the option to send PIN messages to devices. You select a user or a group of users and select "send message" and it asks you if you want to send by email or PIN.

dabagboy · 12-15-2005, 09:57 AM

We don't use our own BES -- as a Nextel customer is this available?

southwestcomm · 12-15-2005, 10:31 AM

All carriers sell BES's.

NJBlackBerry · 12-15-2005, 12:33 PM

Unless you are a BES Administrator, with access to the BES console, you can not send a PIN message to a BlackBerry from anything besides a BlackBerry.

END OF DISCUSSION.

perhaps he meant he emailed his old PIN conversation to himself...i do that regularly when i have a PIN thread that i want on email...
