Date is 6/28/06; 2:35 AM central time, just so people have a reference as to when this update was done.
Didn't get a chance to see what version I had prior, but I know yesterday when I reflashed it it said I had the current firmware, now there was an update available
I haven't had much chance to play test it out. I've been having issues with the phone freezing up with the messaging portion of it, hopefully this fixes the problem. Let me know what you guys think of it
It definately seems to be a good update by Sony Ericsson.
I've used the phone heavily for the past hour and a half. I've been going through the phone like a mad man. E-mail works flawlessly, messaging is fine, calls are great. No lockups and the phone definately feels snappier. Before the phone would freeze up on messaging after a while, and that hasn't happened since the update. Rock solid update so far, I'll let you guys know if any issues come up.
Has anyone managed to update the firmware using a Mac? I had real problems when I owned an i-mate PDA2k because the firmware couldn't be updated even with Virtual PC. Perhaps something like Parallels with a new Intel Mac will work?

This has happened to me a few times in the 2 weeks. I'll do the update tonight after work. I'm really looking forward to it.
How can I be sure I'm a human being?
What if I'm really something else - like a potato - and I just think I'm a human being
Disable the on-screen handwritting and the UI speed is fantastic. I also use a Sony Clie Th55 which has real RAM as opposed to flash memory and the M600i is as quick as my Clie - a great achievement for a 200mhz CPU (feels faster then my HTC Universal as well).
how did you guys update the firmware, mine keeps saying detecting phone and nothing happens?
and what button do you hold instead of the "c" button since this phone doesn't have one?

The phone does have a "c". It is the letter c (the right side of the 7 key).
Supposedly you can also use the internet button on the right side of the phone.

Anybody else has problem with BB Connect after upgrade?
I upgraded my M600 yesterday and after the upgrade BB Connect is not working anymore - I re-installed it but it does not change anything my provider cannot send Service Books to the phone anymore.
The upgrade makes the phone a little faster and fixes some bugs but at the same time it is incompatible with the BBC I have
Anyone has a version of BBConnect that works with the firmware upgrade? What other solution do I have to have push emails?
Do any you wizards know if the Sony Ericsson Update Service requires any Internet Connectivity once the application is fully started? Because my only current internet connectivity is the phone itself, and during the update process one must shut it down..
I get as far as attaching the phone to the USB cable while holding the Internet button, it then says release "C" button, I release Internet Button, and the app then seems to get stuck in the "Identifying Phone" phase. I have waited for 10-15 minutes but nothing happens. Any ideas?
