There should be no dragons hidden in flashing generic firmware, really. The main question is - should I really be bothered to do that, since I have device capable receiving system updates OTA?!? Personally, I only regard flashing as appropriate when I've entered major, non-fixable otherwise issue with my device. I know it's quick to do, I know there's pretty good backup app which restores nearly all my settings (apart from those I made manually via CLI, obviously - but yet another annoyance after flashin) but... I am really not finding this as the workaround for OTA update that just *should* be there. I've been in that zoo for few years once (Windows Mobile, I am looking at you!) where each system upgrade required a total havoc in device and I am seriously very far away from entering similar area again. For the record, I currently have generic UK firmware (.203) ver. PR1.1 and I'm not happy about lack of PR1.1.1 in my application manager ready to download. I can somewhat understand operator-specific fw upgrades being delayed due to external acceptance procedure, but why oh why generic editions are getting such delays too??? -- Dawid 'evad' Lorenz * http://adl.pl null://I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code
