It certainly hasn't allowed us to use Opera Mini yet...

Ran firmware update on my phone and it updated.

Good thing I ditched that piece of crap. I still feel for you guys and always will. I've thrown my Instinct at the wall numerous times.

I am fortunate that I convinced them to give me a 2yr contract instead of 3. Never again will I believe that a cellphone does what it is advertised to do until I hear multiple people saying it does just that.

Why oh why would you remove visual voicemail when it's BUILT INTO THE PHONE?

So is Gps it has it's own chip,it was bell that changed the software,so that the only way to access the gps is through the bell software.

Actually you can use GPS with other applications, the problem is getting the program to run correctly. MGMaps locked on to GPS but was useless because there's no keyboard fix yet.

Im pretty sure this update added a counter for characters left when SMSing someone.

Improvements

• World Clock: Corrected world clock timezone for Quebec City and Quebec as well as correcting the daylight savings time value as some timezones were one hour off.
• Media Player: Improved fast forward and rewind functionality.
• Weather: Corrected so that when the device is changed to French, the weather language changes too.

Yawnn. No LCDUI, no big deal.
