With all due respect, I beg to differ on that one. A version was slated to be released and then the brakes were put on.... (sometime around the time the community shed a lot of light on several issues... one of which was the inability to OTA with *228 without loosing data.) So, while I'm all for "coincidences", I like conspiracy theories more.Look how well .75 performs. In reality, when you get rid of some of the expectations that some people have, it works just fine! And thats a testament to how much testing they did to get .75 out there. Look at how old that build is today, yet works fine.
Dont count them out so soon. Just remember, they are testing as much as they do, for your well being as a customer. If they find a reason to fail a build, theres a reason.

I have heard quite a few times that the phone does what it is supposed to do albeit with some lag....and yes now that I am running a leaked OS it sure does....but .75 made even the simplest functions like recieving phone calls almost impossible sometimes...there were quite a few times that the phone would get frozen between landscape and portrait and I was unable to actually answer a phone call....that is the most basic function of a cell phone...then there was the trying to put in a password when trying to retrieve voice mail...by the time I was able to bring up the dial pad it was prompting me again...and then it was so laggy and ridiculously slow that there were times that the right password was not being punched in....I have had the phone from launch and at that time I had no third party apps or themes so it was strictly the OS that was doing this....I will not even get into the battery drain issue or the email issues or the freezing problems while browsing the web or the media player issues or how the camera actually wouldn't take a pic when pressing the button cuz it was too busy auto focusing over and over again.....I am not bashing this phone because at present time it is operating the way I thought it would it being a first generation touchscreen and all for rim....but sometimes I just wonder (and this is not meant to offend anyone) if some of the folks on here have been privy to OS so much more advanced than .75....and when they did have .75 it was so long ago that they have actually forgotten some of the MAJOR issues that that OS had...Look how well .75 performs. In reality, when you get rid of some of the expectations that some people have, it works just fine! And thats a testament to how much testing they did to get .75 out there. Look at how old that build is today, yet works fine.

It may not be seen as a "bug" but it is an additional step in the flow chart and when you have trained monkeys at the counter, the last thing they need is deviation from the norm.
And you get back on it!
