yeah i kept thinking of this Office quote:

Kevin: Pam?
Pam: Hmm?
Kevin: When will the new copier be ready?
Pam: I'm working on it Kev.
Kevin: You said it would be ready by today. And it is today.
Pam: It'll be ready soon.
Kevin: Soon could mean anything. Soon could be 3 weeks.
Pam: Is that what 'soon' means to you?
Kevin: Sometimes.
Pam: Then come back soon.

The question is, "what does the near future mean?" That could be next month or next year! ! !

They're finalizing the software which means it's actually already being built or built and they're refining it. If it's already built you know someone at xda is going to get a leaked copy.

it is encouraging to see that sprint would say in the near future but let's break it down. WTF DOES NEAR FUTURE MEAN?

how long did it take to finally produce a phone that would compete against the Iphone? (The instinct was a faillll...) Just about 2-3 years! (Thank god HTC came thru tho) Don't expect froyo to be available till around or after September. And expect to be without frozen yogurt for pretty much the whole summer.

Sorry if this is a noob question but does anyone know if I will be able to upgrade to 2.2 even though I rooted the phone?

If you are rooted then you won't want to do the offical update as it might break root..Unless that is okay for you..

Trust me when this comes out whether leaked etc the devs will be all over it and you will have a custom 2.2 ROM to use
