Interesting how people complain that there are too many threads about the lack of update, but they continue to read them.  Some of them complaining even manage to post on all of the threads.

 

I have froyo, but would still like an official release from Verizon.  Would much rather be able to get adequate support for a device that I pay 100+ a month for, from the company I pay, rather than some guy (which to this point very helpful) on the Internet.

Thank you Runsilent;  I was concerned that my thoughts were unintelligible but you certainly understood the issues I was raising.   I started a new thread because the information I included was NEW and  changed the nature of the discussion.

 

I did enjoy the droid clown writings.  But he called Uncle Sammy "greedy" which is untrue.  Sammy made a big bet on galaxy s and won.  I'm happy he did, but Aunt Ver did shoot him in the foot with her bing-gun.

 

I'm no gambler and I stay out of Vegas, last time I went there my wife walked in on me and charlie sheen and 6 naked girls and she had no sense of humor whatsoever about the whole thing.  I'll wait for Aunt Ver to repair the bing-gun accident and take care of her business of keeping me updated.  Till then it's iced tea and Saturday night bingo - NO Vegas.

I just love how Vegas is so open! you even get to pick your own flavour of cake. The gingerbread cookies are great too, but be very careful as they are known to give you gas. The incridents are still being tweeted, lets hope they come soon. By the way, I didnt know your greedy uncle Sammy lived in Vegas. I always thought he was a con artist who lived overseas.

 

 

 

Do you practice being wrong most of the time or does it just come naturally?

 Maybe there is some movement in the Froyo update? Here is a tweet from GalaxySsupport:

 

Now testing #Froyo with our partners at #VerizonWireless. Working to ensure great customer experience quickly as possible. ^SM

 

 

Hopefully it is soon?

Dad-Bill, I am right 99.99% of the time. People just have to face the reality that the petite blonde sales rep fool us into buying something we didn't want. Now that buyers remorse has kick in, we're realizing that the hot sales rep was only interested in our wallets. Nevertheless, the Froyo update has been out for months, Verizon has elected not to release it yet because it would interfere with potential profits. As I previously stated before, if you want it, just take a trip to Vegas.

I like the internet methods better.  Because then I don't have to redo certain things and the support is a lot better.  May be a few little rough edges but at least those developers actually work to fix it.

Went to a BJ's and was told something about this.  From a sales rep but then he has the phone as well.  He told me that he thought that the Verizon update for the Fascinate Etc Etc. was going to skip the Froyo update and go directly to the "gingerbread"  update.???  Froyo and gingerbread-----what does it all mean eh??

The operating system developer, Google, names its operating systems after a dessert. You have eclair 2.1 on your fascinate now. The next update that we have been waiting months for is called froyo 2.2 which stands for frozen yogurt. The one after that will be gingerbread and so on.
