Updating. I've got slow internet, this is going to take a while.

Whoever gets it running first, PLEASE have a look in the messages app. Is there a 'mark all as read' button??

I just checked my Playbook at about 9:06am and saw the update. I thought for once I'd have some breaking news, but alas the Crackberry team was sharp as ever and beat me to it! Now to check it out!
