Today Verizon Wireless has introduced a new service that will alert users when new firmware is available for their handsets and will walk them through the update process. Verizon calls this over-the-air update service a proactive step to help customers update their phones before problems arise. It should help reduce in-store visits for repairs or updates. Verizon says most updates will take only a few moments. It will be available for select handsets later this year, and rolled out on more phones throughout 2008.
