Oh, and I hate AMOLED screens. I want white, not bl...

I don't really "need" to use this upgrade, but I wanted to know what's on the herizon so to speak and if there's anything worth upgrading to now.
Thanks again.

No need to take the risk of being an early adopter and getting hosed if you're happy with the handset you have right now, IMO.
