I wouldn't know.  I can't buy any apps.  I get a server error in Market Place every time.

 

Free D/L's are not a problem though.

That is odd you can't buy apps. Have you tried turning off the phone? taking battery out?  You may have to call tech support for furhter help

I just got off the phone with VZW trying to fix a problem on my X.  They are pretty sure 2.2 will fix my issue and tell me that it did in fact start rolling out this morning.  It's being sent in batches so as not to overload the Google servers and we should all be on 2.2 by 8/13 or earlier.

 

If 2.2 does not fix my issue, they will send me a new phone...which even if ordered now, wouldn't ship until 8/18 anyway.  So I wait and see.............

According to the news reports, the rollout starting today is for the ORIGINAL Droid..... the update for the DROID X will be late this month, early next month... again... according to reports that I have been seeing online

I can tell you that my  brother and another friend who both have HTC EVO's both got their 2.2 updates today.  Maybe thats a sign to come.

Do you by any chance NOT have a google gmail account?   I think you must have one in order to purchase apps.  Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, ok?

Patiently/Impatiently waiting for the release of Android 2.2.

can you even activate your phone if you don't have one?  When I was setting mine up I just put in my gmail account infor and I was fine but it seemed you couldn't get past that step unless you created an account or put in an existing one.

You may be right.  I already had one when I got my X so that never came up when the girl at the Verizon store was setting my phone up.
