I have managed to get it going on my 8100 - I am on BIS with Telstra, but have had to set the APN to telstra.internet to get it to work, it doesn't work if I have the APN set to blackberry.net -
(can someone please confirm whether this means I will be accessing via Telstra's wap service or via the normal internet connection, I would be grateful for any advice)

EDIT: I have confirmed with Telstra that setting the APN to telstra.internet will incur data charges - back to blackberry.net for me!! I will just have to wait until vlingo can sort out the connectivity problem.

Cheers,
Brian
