This update is a must!
Wow, this is definitely a keeper!
I couldn't get the Desktop Manager to recognize the update, not even after deleting vendor.xml file and reinstalling the update 3 times. Finally, I switched over to App Loader and the update went off without a hitch.
This is the FIRST update (official & non) EVER where all of my stuff was 100% recovered after the update, and I mean everything: text msgs, emails, service books, you name it - its all there. Super impressed!
The only theme I use works flawlessly: STORM Today Plus WeatherBug - Hidden.
Web Browser seems faster / smoother. Screen rotation feels good and keyboard also seems more responsive (less laggy). Color banding is much improved (and non-existent if I take my glasses off )
No Cons so far, this update seems to be strictly improvements, well done RIM... keep em coming! Additional Notes: for GSM Storm users out there (like me), the EDGE / edge issue seems improved as well. Mine reloaded into edge after the first reboot, but after I cleared the incorrect VZW APN settings, the phone seems to be well locked into EDGE and all data connections are solid. It used to be that once the phone drops into edge, it takes upwards of 30 minutes for it to recover back to EDGE. The fact that I now see it bounce right back into EDGE is a good sign of improvement.
