    Hello all,

    I passed by the Telus store and one of the sales rep confirmed that Telus is beta testing version .106 for the Storm (9530). I saw the email and was there when the person was downloading the OS.

    There is no official date but early March seems to be the target for an official release.

    Regards,

    Hello,

    I will pass by the store over the weekend or at latest Monday. He mentioned that I can play around with the new OS but unfortunatelyhe won't 'share' the file.

    I will definitely provide an update soon.

    I've dropped by my friendly neighborhood telus store (non-corp), and they didn't receive any beta code that they know of.

    Still, very interested on the feedback if anyone manages to play with this OS.

    I wish all this was true but I'm starting to think that this is just a bs rumor
    I'm running .99 and its pretty stable except for the movie babylon ad it plays choppy and it
    Skips a lot.

    Hello,

    No it is not a rumour. The rep showed me the email. I wouldn't create a stir or mislead people given that the site is so helpful and I am equally excited about a leaked version just like everyone else. I tried most of the releases:86,90,96,99 and 103.

    Like I mentioned I will confirm by Monday when I see the actual phone and go to options -> about

    Make sure that you take a picture of it for us to prove that they are actually running it.

    If .106 ends up being the official release then im going to pissed...unless its a lot more fluid than .103 is. But I highly doubt we will see many differences between .103 and .106.

    Because Telus release's .106, does not mean VZW will.
    It seems VodaFone has released .100 for the 9500.. wtf?
    .100!? I will drop this phone faster than a fat kid to cake if we get a ****** official.

    Weird actually. I guess they assume we have higher standards or something? And trust me im with you. If the final official release is anything like how it is now im going to punt my phone out the window.

    Verizon supposedly prides itself in its rigorous testing process... as we can see that didn't work out so well this time. They used to take a year or more to put a phone out after its testing, which is part of why they were so far behind it seemed on the latest and greatest phones. They've since loosened up a bit and streamlined it, but as we can all tell, they just market blitzed this phone and are trying to fix it now.

    I can tell you what I'd like to see (fixed, not new features), but that's not the topic.

    Anywho, its already been said, pics or it didn't happen.
