Amazing

Amazing that the upgrades (improvements) are being made so fast by AT&T. I remember with the original Bold how slowly they came (if ever). Did the upgrade when desktop manager said there was one available. Upgrade went smoothly and the improvements are definitely noticeable. Even improved the trackpad, I had noticed that sometimes it did not respond right away to swipes (even with a 90 sensitivity)and now it moves perfectly, as good as I remember the trackball on the Bold.
