    In so far as I know, you will get a notification and all you have to do is click "download now".

    BTW, how is the reception down there in Sierra Vista?

    It is also recommended that your battery be fully charged (or close to it) and you be in a good service area (3G) or connected to wifi...
    Failure isn't falling down, failure is staying down.

    I assume they want you to have a full charge because it will suck a bunch of juice to perform the update?

    Can you have it plugged in and charging while you do the update, or should it be off the charger?
    I intend to live forever. So far so good.

    Yes, it can be on the charger and complete the update...I rec'd 2.2 on my D1 over the weekend and it only took 10 minutes or so from start to finish (pop-up box saying it was there, start download, download, restart)...I was in the city at the time so 3G service was good...had I been at my home, I would have completed wifi as service is not good there...LOL

    Verizon is the #1 carrier down here and Ive never had an issue with reception anywhere in the county. Sprint on the other hand was the absolute worst......
