Looks like they decided RI was more important than CT, and cut out the state completely Also for some reason MA wasnt labeled either.

I downloaded and installed 4.5.0.51 as well, and LOVE IT. I cant wait to see the actual production release. The beta release has treated me well, with the exception of some minor theme quirks. Since not all the themes are completely 4.5 compatible I dont worry about it.

Where did you dl it from? I can't find a site with a good copy that VZW will let me install. The last one I found was the vodafone software I believe. Just never went to install, it was stuck at the blackberry manager screen.

Any tips/hints?

You know what sucks. The Voice Recorder cannot be used while on the phone. It sure would come in handy to record some conversations at various times. WTF would RIM limit this? The recording of voice conversations could not cause them any lawsuits because it falls under the user's responsobility of it's feature usage.
