    Hi!

    Thanks to the contributions of over two million beta testers like you, we are proud to announce that we�re officially dropping the beta tag with today�s release of BOLT 1.5.

    You will be automatically prompted to upgrade the next time you launch BOLT.

    Many of the most significant upgrades occur �under the hood,� but you are sure to notice the results � v1.5 is the most reliable, fastest browser we have ever released � more than 15% faster than Beta3.

    Other new features include the ability to stream videos of any length, a dedicated search bar, a download manager that downloads files directly from BOLT, improved navigation and text rendering, and a caching feature that enables browsing back to a previously visited page without waiting to reload.

    This would have never happened so quickly without the feedback and vocal support of our beta testers. BOLT 1.5 is easy enough for anyone to use, so please pass this along to anyone you know who would enjoy a super-fast, feature-rich mobile browsing experience.

    Finally, to stay up to date on all things BOLT, please be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter!

    Thanks,
    The BOLT Team at Bitstream

    I've had the 1.04 for a couple of months now. Haven't seen bupkis on a 1.5 or 05 yet, but it would be nice to have improvements.

    Looks like someone jumped the gun by sending that email out. I too am betting on it being released tomorrow.

    Well, I could go for that. I like Bolt, and improvements would be great. I use it to access many sites that the BB browser doesn't play nice with.

    OK, this is how i got it:
    -from Bolt open menu and go to help
    -it will open Bolt web page and you will get prompt about new version
    -from menu select download and it will invoke native browser
    -you will get correct link for 1.50

    That link still tells me it's version 1.04!

    OK! I've just been to Bolt Browser on my BB and the site says that 1.5 is ready for download, but when you click D/L it still tries to give you 1.04!
