not really much diff from the older one but off of the top of my head I think is options>network> you should see it there.

cant do that on a AT&T branded Bold. the phone needs to be unbranded in order to have the option to switch to 2G. updating the OS, which is going to be basically nothing different than the previous preleased OS, wont give you that option.

not true. it has been widely posted that with this update ATT branded ones also get that option.

I have ATT branded Bold and I DO have the 2g/3g option. However, my Bold is unlocked. Perhaps that is the deciding factor?

ah i just see that now with .282 you can do that. everything prior you had to unbrand. i havent really looked into .282 since im still happy with .266. oh well im glad they finally addressed that issue without having to unbrand. my bad guys.
