Nordic nRF51822 : Cannot Get To Work

Ok so I have tried both the BLE_Beacon as well as the Puck examples and I cannot discover the device from any bluetooth enabled device. Also, the BLE_Beacon, once updated from the IDE, no longer loads on my device, instead i get that ever-so-helpful OUT OF MEMORY failure...which does not mean what it seems to suggest. I have found that I get that error with this board when there is something wrong (pins incorrect or whatever) with my program.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using the mbd online IDE. I have updated my bootloader (but will do it again after I post this)

TIA, Mark

The nRF51822-mKIT is a low cost ARM mbed enabled development board for Bluetooth® Smart designs with the nRF51822 SoC. The kit gives access to all GPIO pins via pin headers …

Have you update the firmware on your board?? http://developer.mbed.org/platforms/Nordic-nRF51822/
