App World on BlackBerry Pearl 3G Shows Unsupported Themes – #FAIL

Imagine that person picking up a Pearl 3G as a first BlackBerry device.  So they end up downloading App World and want to get some themes going on.  Oops — themes are not supported, but are displayed there.  How long do you think it will be until the person figures out that they are there by mistake?  Kyle from BlackBerry Cool brings up a good point mentioning that the theme builder has not yet been released for developers yet, and the device made its way out already.  It doesn’t seem to be much of a problem for the Bold 9650 as it is in the 96xx family so you can sort of get away with some of the themes.  As for the Pearl 3G, what’s going on? Are we waiting for an US launch of the device before it reaches out?

    [...] too long to be left out of the themes loop.  I can imagine how many Pearl 3G users were angered by themes showing up in App World but weren’t compatible.  Bold 9650 owners were able to cope a bit around it as some Tour themes did work.  If [...]
