Yay!!!! (Jumping with joy) I can't wait to go home to try this. I've been having problems with memory leaks (yesterday I checked and I was down to 4MB ).
Thank you Blaze!!!

so what updates are there from 162 except for stability?
Well for one thing its AT&T's official release. Who knows whats in there.....I am sure it has some code to deal with the 3g network. We all know how bad it is to begin with...lets hope this release works some magic.
Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between the .167 official os and the old unofficial version that I've had installed for the last week and a half??

Official is official...it doesnt hurt to update it to an actual release.
The betas may have some unfinished business......
I did .167 earlier today, then .166 official, and now this......still downloading.
