BlackBerry Messenger 5.0 leaks, works for Berry OS 4.5 to 5.1

This article contains unofficial information.
In the meantime, to get you pumped up, let's recap some of the new features of BlackBerry Messenger 5.0. You can use the camera or a saved picture to create an avatar which will displayed on your handset and also next to your name on your buddy's phone. If you don't always want your pals to know where you are, you can change settings to give your friends your location all the time, only upon request, or never. A proximity sensor will tell you how close you are to your friends, assuming of course, that both Berry's were set to share location. Messenger contacts can be placed directly on the home screen. And of course, there is that ultra-cool bar code feature. Say you want to add someone's PIN info, but you're too lazy/tired to write it down. Ask him or her to press the "send bar code" option and a bar code appears on your device. The camera on your 'Berry scans the code and Bingo! A new contact is added to your phone. And no, it won't scan that box of cereal at the supermarket.
If you decide to download the leaked Messenger 5.0 on your BlackBerry, let us know how it is working for your handset.

Well actually if you were anywhere near competent yourself you would know that the Storm really hasn't supported a lot of leaked stuff other than the 4.7 OS leaks. The 5.0 was previewed for the storm but they said it wasn't anywhere near stable yet. which by the way to phonearena: it works great so far, the only thing i couldn't get to work yet on bb stom with vzw service, is the contacts on homepage, i don't know if i need to reboot the device but all other features are working so far!! It's a GREAT improvement. Thanks for posting this, also if people are looking for an easy way to download via the device itself goto:www.stormota.com it has links for all devices that will support it.

Is there a site where I can get the OTA download for the bold?
