Re: All Discussions regarding the OTA update.

I got the update yesterday and here's what I've noticed:

The orange Qik icon has been replaced with the blue one; not sure if this affects the operation of the app since I don't use it The Quickoffice icon has also changed/seems to be updated.

My Facebook widget seems to be working better now. It updates once an hour just as I have it set to do: before, it seemed to be updating every few minutes, regardless of the setting.

Battery life has been sporadic. Yesterday, after the update (which took about ten minutes), my battery dropped from 80% before the update to 60% after the update. From there, it continued to fall at about the same rate as always. Today, though, the battery seems to be lasting longer: after 5 1/2 hours it is still at 90%. That is with location on; FB, news, stocks, and weather all auto-updating on the home screens; push Gmail on; WiFi off; and the phone sitting in 3-4 bars of 3G coverage.

This is with very light usage (in the past five hours I've read two emails and sent one text), so I don't expect to extrapolate this into 30+ hours of battery life, but I had no issues getting through the day before and now I'm even happier with it.
