And a good thread it was too :) I am also very curious about the potential GSM fixes. Will these be done by sending it back, or will it be something us hackers can do (and soldering sub-micron capacitors to invisible traces I do not consider your average hacker can do, and I have been playing with a soldering iron for 35 years, and I would not attempt it :) The GSM problems particularly worry me, because it does make the phone useless as a phone and I need to know if I need to go buy another phone as a primary phone or not. Whereas problems with GPS & SDCARDS are not show stoppers for me. If it worked fine with a BT headset I could also use it happily. (Of course if we discover a fatal H/W flaw that prevents even BT headsets from working that is also a show stopper for me) So please OM head honchos, get together and please give us a definitive statement as to what the after sales support will be for any serious Hardware issues discovered after shipping.
