Just got the epic. a few key things missing.

Love the phone so far. coming from the original touch pro. battery on touch pro was a joke so even though the epic's isn't the best, it's still a huge upgrade in that category. There are just a few simple things missing that would make this phone basically perfect....

1. android 2.2 froyo - I hear that sprint/samsung has guaranteed that the epic will eventually get this but when?

2. Touchwiz 3.0 - why is it that the epic is the only galaxy s phone with all outdated software? would be hard to imagine an upgrade to froyo without also a TW upgrade. However, that's just an assumption and sprint has fooled me before.

3. TV Out - At this point, I don't care whether it's through the 3.5 jack or Samsung's upcoming micro usb to hdmi cable. As long as it's full TV out and not a watered down restricted type like on the EVO.

4. Bluetooth Upgrade - It's now pretty common knowledge that the galaxy s phones along with the evo used an outdated BT stack. The outdated software makes using a BT headset annoying. You can't make voice activated calls from the headset among other things. Also, I have a friend who uses the wiimote to play his gaming simulators on his phone. Got to say I'm a little jealous and confused seeing as my phone is far Superior to his.

5. FM Radio - This is almost a question. Have tried everything but can't seem to find it. I thought this was pre-loaded and a guaranteed feature. I know Sprint has blocked FM radios before but i thought this was something sprint had supported on the evo and epic?

Like I said, I love the phone and to list the positives would take all day. I've never been a fan of rooting/custom roms so if these few issues aren't resolved by sprint/samsung/android themselves, then I guess I will just have to live with it.
