This a worrying trend. RIM seem to be making a whole scat od beta releases. This indicates to me that they are working through a series of bug fixes quite rapidly. I would not have expected this to be happening at this stage of the product development. With a ne product, you usually get a demo version, an alpha product (full of bugs), several beta releases and then maybe one or two Release Candidates (RC1, RC2). Patrick, you are a developper, what do you think?
It is not 'normal' that this far into the development cycle that we are seeing lots of minor releaaes so close together. It indicates, to me at least, that RIM are having several specific problems with OS 4.5
I have deleted .10, .18. 27 but I received .37 on 5/29, .42 on 6/9 and .44 on 6/20. Now I read that .48 may have been released on 6/23 and I know that .46 is out there. That is 5 releases in about a month (I did not get my files on day 1).
Worse, I posted a link from Engadget yesterday that said that the 9000 release had benn delayed due to, amongst other things, software problems. Here's the link Blackberry Bold release date delayed? - Engadget
I wish that we could help RIM out but they will only talk to their official beat testers and I don't think that many (there are some) of them are on Crackberry. | I also asked and did not receive a response- either. Like everyone else, still looking.
