Google Apps setup on Blackberry

Solution There are different ways to connect a Blackberry to Google Apps, but I've found this to be the best way in my opinion:

1) Point your Blackberry Internet browser to http://m.google.com
2) When that page loads DON'T click the Install program. Instead, scroll down and click on the "Mail" program and proceed with downloading that.
3) If you also want to sync your calendar and contacts, then go to the same page, scroll down to the "Sync" program and proceed with downloading that.
4) Once you install them you will have 2 new icons on your Blackberry (depending on how new your phone is, these may be located under a "download" folder on your phone. In that case you can move the icons to your Main folder).
5) The red envelope icon is your Mail, so you won't use the original Blackberry mail icon for your Google mail. The first time you click this icon you have to login with your FULL email address and your Google Apps password.
6) When you click the Sync icon for the first time, you also have to login with this same info, but then you have to click your menu button and go into "Options" to tell it so sync your Contacts and/or Calendar.
