What I've found is:

- Camera app starts quite fast.
- Focus time is better.
- Camera's capture time is better, but has to be much better in next upgrade.
- Screen rotation is better.
- Scrolling through pics is faster and better.
- Memory looks the same to me.
- dialing number is much MUCH better, one can do it faster =)

In general, it's a good update.

This is a 9500 thread so we don't really need to comment on 9530. Its cool, they've got enough of their own threads.

Installed .122, will test later, using my bold at the moment.

LOL yeah, lets rename this thread 'No 9530s allowed' or just get whoever registered crackberry.co.uk to do something useful with it!

Downloaded .122, installing shortly. BTW, does anyone know if you have to remove the 'vendor.xml' file because this is for Hutchinson users?

Umm hello I can make your version install on my phone if there's a benefit like the fact that it's fully functioning so don't give me **** for asking a simple question about the OS!!

I'm gonna say yes because it should be carrier specific...

Maybe a bit snappier, typing lag seems to be gone.

I can't download email attachments (eg. .zip files) with this build, just get "Attachment download IO error" when trying to download to SD-Card, tried test emails on different mail servers with the same result.

It's working again now so false alarm (sorry).

122 does seem snappier the more I use it, might be a good one! :-)

installed .122 today. has been very stable and smooth so far. memory stable at 46 MB. will report battery life in a few days. i must admit it is smoother and snappier than .113. camera still needs to improve. browser is much faster than .113
