Default Upgrade Or Wait for 5.0 what will you do

Alright I know we`ve all been dying for this but let`s be honest .151 rocks! and no facebook and no BBM is kind of a killer for me. I think I will wait for a hybird as I want the tabed browsing and some of the cool stuff but hopefully a hybird will be able to let some apps run that won`t run now. I have friends who installed 5.0 on their bold and curve and went back because it was obivious heavy beta. what do you guys think

Me too. One of my favorite feature is being able to upload facebook pictures and other various information to my contact list...which in turn loads the pictures to my avatars in BBM 5.0.

Bummer, but I can wait.

I'm waiting. I just don't trust it right now after reading the findings thread. It looks sweet though but the reds outweigh the blues for me.

already installed 5.

Except for having to install BBM manually, and not having a dedicated facebook app, everything seems slick... so far

5.0 is broken...

If you can find a way to get:

1. App world to work
2. App center to work
3. Random resets to stop

Then i will retract my statement.

Back to 151 until hybrid or other...

I will wait for a hybrid or just stick with 151.. I have had no problems with 151, but I am hoping they get a less buggy 5.0

BBM v5 working great, no reboots thus far, I'm pretty happy with it but only time will tell if it remains this way

How about I'm going to wait and see how many problems people have before I just jump into it? I can wait a day or two, the megalink will still be there.

Definitely staying with .151. Too many non-compatible apps that I use.
