I'm curious, does RIM ever post the fixes or improvements (aka release notes) with their OSes? I definately have an issue with media playback but having trouble pinpointing the how's and whens.
I'll upgrade asap though of course

Stop googling for it addicts , as this is the worst release OS for the Bold from Rim to date. I am really disappointed. After doing a wipe and clean install I only have 40MB free memory (whats up with that)

That's exactly what I tried to tell PhoneGeek. But he seems to like .154 and he says he thinks that's what launching on AT&T. Hope not.
Memory management is not simply about "free" memory. Every operating system manages memory differently. For instance, Linux will consume almost all available memory for file cache buffers. If you ask Linux how much free memory it has, it will report what seems like an abnormally low number, but this doesn't tell the full story. It certainly doesn't automatically imply memory leaks.
Unless you know the mechanics of how 4.6 works, stop gawking at the available memory. You're not doing yourself any favors. The real question is how well does this version run if you just let the OS do its job.
If it runs smoothly and you don't run into abnormal application lagging or random reboots/crashes, the release is a success story. If not, go back to another version. But to pass judgment on an OS off of how much free memory is reported after a battery pull? C'mon.

The problem is not the initial amount of memory available, I think we must evaluate if the available memory doesnt drop below normal operating levels and the OS is capable to maintain in a range where the phone operates without errors.
