I got 2 emails about it last night. I woke up this morning and had these 2 emails (identical, btw) on my phone. I was so excited....thinking it was a new release....and then I read .328. Bummer.
i'm guessing it's for the tour since .328 became official for the storm for about a month now
It says it is for the Storm, complete with a picture of the storm. Text of the email:
Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software enhancement for your BlackBerry Storm 9530 smartphone. The Research In Motion� 5.0.0.328 release includes many software updates and enhancements:
Faster, more accurate and natural typing experience
Auto Correction enabled in landscape view
Improved media experience
Enhanced touch user interface
And much more
To ensure the best possible user experience,
Verizon Wireless and RIM� encourage you to download
and install the free update now.
I got the email for the Storm ysterday also. Probably intentionally sent it late to control bandwidth - they've probably been sending them out in controlled batches to avoid being flooded.
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone this morning.... All there is on this forum is noobs resurecting old threads and posting up new threads about subjects that are weeks old.

Nope, Verizon is just way behind at sending out their update emails. I got one this morning telling me that 5.0.0.328 is available for my 9530 Storm. Too bad it actually went official on October 25th.

It's not their fault that VZW is weeks behind in sending out emails.
That is true and it is a pretty decent OS for being official about a week ago
Themes still cause some issues however, but there is an easy fix for most of them.
the new 5.0 theme builder that was released fixes the issues as well as adding some cool new features.
There are few 5.0 themes already in the theme forum.
I got the email last night too. I went down .327 and email links seem to be working though.....the key board seems to have less lag too when going to alt keyboards.....I was running .328 since it went official.

When I saw the email from Verizon I thought they had somehow managed to have an additional update beyond .328 that flew underneath the radar... Yeah, right that's wayyyyy to much credit for VZdub!
Is the new OS worth Downloading. I have been running a leaked OS since I got my storm in March and have not had a single problem. Should I go to the new official OS or just keep the leaked one?
