New OTA?

Just got prompted with a new OTA this morning for 2.08.651.3...

Tried doing a search and found nothing about this. Anyone else get this? What does it fix?

I too received the OTA update request. I am downloading it now, but will not install it until I hear more about what it includes.

I wonder - if it might be the security fix for the HTC loggers? (making your private information on your HTC EVO available to just about any rogue app that wants it?)

Massive Security Vulnerability In HTC Android Devices (EVO 3D, 4G, Thunderbolt, Others) Exposes Phone Numbers, GPS, SMS, Emails Addresses, Much More

I'm currently on 2.08.651.2 - and haven't seen the OTA request yet (checked manually too).
Edit: Got the update now - seems to be working ok (no noticeable changes)

I installed the update an hour ago or so. Everything works fine, no problems and didn't notice any changes by the update. I am thinking its the security update for the HTC logger.

I've noticed that my phone has a hard time turning the screen on when pressing the power button. Occasionally, I have to press it 2-3 times before the screen will turn on.
