Over The Air Updates
Does anyone know when Verizon will start using OTA updates so U won't have to go into a Verizon store to get a software upgrade?

they currently over over the air transfer updates.. but some updates are too large to transmit over the air, as the technology stands at this point. look at it this way, would you rather it take up to 30 minutes just to download software to your phone that could be corrupted by the signal quality you have. where as if you take it inside for just a few minutes you won't get corrupted software. you get what im saying? im was a communications expert in the navy. and these are things we tackled constantly. imagine using a piece of paper with a bunch of wholes instead of memory card to store cryptography info on it. a piece of paper won't get corrupted as easily as a memory card can.. heat and electromagnetic waves can corrupt memory. where as it...
