someone asked this before but (to be quite honest) i don't know the release dates of them all.
however, i don't think that the release date really matters because the software you flash changes how the hardware radio in your phone acts. it doesn't fix or add anything that a previous radio didn't have... (someone could get better results in their area with the oldest radio than with the newest)

Understood. I just assumed that, in situations where a carrier releases multiple versions of a radio for the same device, was indicative of some sort of tweaking or, I would hope, improvements to its functionality. I understand radio performance tends to be location based, but what would be the purpose behind a carrier spending the money and effort to release different builds if it were not for improvement's sake? Just something Ive always wondered.

Thanks for your great work.

I completely agree. The names and versions of these radios are not region or carrier specific. In my instance, I use Telus 1.04.05V in the bay area (Northern California) on the Sprint carrier. There's a post somewhere in PPCGEEKS that poeple have listed the radios they've used in the their areas but I can't seem to find it in the threads anymore.

I think i went through 7 radios in 7 weeks before sticking to the TELUS ( I was getting tired of tracking results ) You just have to be patient...
