Here are some tips for BlackBerry developers running the device simulator on Windows:

Problem: Build Failed/access denied when running 'ant load-simulator...'
Just right click on the Windows Command prompt and choose 'Run as administrator.' Also consider dragging the Cmd prompt from menu to desktop to make testing easier.

Problem: When I minimize the device simulator in Windows, I can't bring it up again...
This works: change to a different simulator by modifying the PhoneGap configuration file project.properties in the folder ..\phonegap\BlackBerry-Webworks.

Here are two examples. Just comment out the one that hangs and uncomment the other one:

sim.dir=C:\\Program Files\\Research In Motion\\

   BlackBerry WebWorks Packager\\simpack\\5.0.0.469

###sim.dir=C:\\Program Files\\Research In Motion\\

   BlackBerry WebWorks Packager\\simpack\\6.0.0.227
