    notify.me frame/landing page causes issues with BlackBerry browser
    When trying to access links from an email on my BlackBerry, the notify.me frame/landing page causes none of the content from the original site to appear. Would it be possible to detect the BlackBerry browser user agent and redirect to the original URL?

    AT&T will handle all warranty requests for RIM directly. Try them first.

    Alternatively if AT&T claim the device is "damaged", you might even be able to replace it yourself - check out www.cnn.cn for replacement parts.

    To activate Mass Storage mode on the Pearl, go into Options > Media Card > Mass Storage Mode Support. Change it to "On" and exit the menu, saving your settings.

    Then, connect your device to your PC with the USB cable. If you have a memory card installed, it will show up as another drive in My Computer, and should be accessible with Media Manager as well.

    UPnP settings in the Media Manager have nothing to do with this issue - don't bother with them.

    These messages indicate that you have the Desktop Redirector client installed and active on a system. If you're not connected to a corporate BlackBerry Enterprise Server, uninstall the BlackBerry Desktop software on your computer.

    When reinstalling, choose the "BlackBerry Internet Service" option only in the wizard, and *do not* select BlackBerry Enterprise Server support.

    If you're connected to a corporate network, contact your system administrator or helpdesk for further BES troubleshooting instructions.

    Ability to specify an original feed URL?
    I'm using Yahoo Pipes primarily to combine RSS feeds and filter out some content (eg: sponsored posts from the Gawker Media family, idiotic posts about 'too much packaging' from the Consumerist, and a Digg Stupidity Filter that's self-explanatory.) I do this because a few regular expressions help save me from the inanity of the Internet every day. When I use these custom feeds with AideRSS, all posts are ranked as a 1.0 - which seems reasonable now that I've figured out why it's happening.

    I was wondering if there was a tag I could use or deploy when utilizing a custom feed to specify the original feed's URL, since all that's changing from the original content is the source URL and the number of posts. I'm pretty sure Pipes lets me add custom XML attributes and it would be really handy if AideRSS could pick this up, and assign the appropriate rating to each piece of content.

    I know some of my combined feeds might be a problem to parse (Engadget Uniques, for example, takes Engadget+Engadget HD+Engadget Mobile posts and runs a unique title filter on them) but the filtered feeds should only need to have a different source set.

    Even at worst, I wouldn't be too adverse to plugging in the original URL somewhere on the AideRSS site under my account. I was slightly confused with the Google Reader extension - apparently it doesn't exactly tie into your personal account at AideRSS.com?

    Cheers,
    Jake
