Can't update until I get home from work in 7 hours. It's going to be a long day. Hopefully there won't be too many bugs reported. I'm glad I can read all of your input before I get home to get me through the work day.
For everyone else that is stuck at work (like me)...don't forget that you have wifi hotspot if you have a 7.1 device. I downloaded 2.1 via my 9930!
I haven't noticed anything that makes me go "wow, this is amazing" - seems like its the same old stuff but perhaps with a bit more pep to it.
I'm going to try the new Print to Go thing when I get to work to see if I can, in fact, print to go to my Playbook even though its on a different network compared. If that actually has been enabled, I'll be quite happy.
About the only thing that I'm not happy with - which is more of a philosophical position - is inapp payments for Android for games. I detest this business model; just charge me the true price of the game and let me play it instead of offering the game for "free"; and then charging me 1.99 if I want to move my character one step to the right; and 2.99 if i want to move my character two steps to the left.
bridge took a long time to obtain all the bbm/text msgs i had over. but after 5 min its been working solid. no bugs so far that i have encountered. awesome update with the new bridge and 9900
I, for one, am VERY HAPPY with the update. Bing Maps and YouTube app now work via Bridge again! It's about time that someone figured out you usually need you map app while ON the road rather than when you're in the office/house! Life is better again...

Does anybody else have this issue with their SMS Bridge?
I have a contact with a phone number "1 (222) 333-4444" and I can send messages with that but when they send a message back it shows up in a different conversation with the number "+12223334444".
Can someone please test whether the Active Sync multiple email bug has been fixed with this update?
While connected to a work exchange server via active sync, email sent from a playbook is sometimes sent 2 or 3 times. I heard that it's supposed to be fixed in 2.1, but I haven't read anything about that specific problem being resolved.
none of my sideloaded previously installed android apps work
all of my previously sideloaded native apps work
have not had a chance to try reinstall sideloaded android apps
Reboot a couple of times and try them again, I and others have had same issue with first boot, but a couple of reboots cured it without having to reinstall anything.
