New to android. need minor help, thanks

[insomniac]

Hello, everybody. Just picked this thing up, tried 3 different podcatchers from the market and didn't like any of them, can someone suggest a good one please.
Also, if there is a good third party browser, and how do android updates work, just incase sprint provides one for this phone. Any help would be appreciated or a link to that info, did a search but, it was of no help.

I think Google Listen might be a good choice. As for browsers, there are Opera and Dolphin, that I know of, although the stock Android browser is pretty good. In the updates area, follow this: Setting>About Phone>System Updates. Next update is possibly to OS 2.1, which will be in-store only for the first few weeks

I didn't even see Opera in the Market, will look again when its done charging.
And to reiterate and make sure I understand correctly, I have to go into a Sprint store to update when they make it available? If so, how will I know when its available?
Sorry for the noob questions.

You wont know unless you ask......at first they do instore in case there are any issues implementing to the masses. Once they are confident they can roll it out over the air you should be able to download it with the self service tool located in your apps menu or in the settings menu.

Thanks much

If you hang out here I'm sure someone will announce the official releases.

I just noticed noticed talk about 2.1 update in another thread. Hopefully this helps with data issues and android's way of dealing with background battery killing processes and they way tasks are hamdled. Its killing me. But, otherwise liking the phone, still like my tp2 a little more though, just got bored with winmo.

Get advanced task killer ive been tweaking it out to auto kill and ignore certain apps. Right now it kills every 30 mins. Ignores messaging, pandora, and itself.

Took my phone in today because it was stuck on first boot screen and wouldnt boot up and was having charging issues. They reloaded the software onto it and when it was handed back to me, advanced task manager had already been placed on there. Still like task management on the tp2 and palm pre better though. Every os has something that I like a lot and something that annoys me, can one of these giant companies get it right with all money they have, lol. I would have kept the palm pre if that keyboard was useable, actually that web os was the best I have used.
