2.1 now

just thought i would add that ota updates are now happening which upgrades the firmware to 2.1. the machine is much better now with none of the audio glitching whith headphones, live wallpapers, 9 home screens and most of all the machine is now fast with a lot less lag than on 2.01.

if you havent upgraded to 2.1 or it refuses you can do it manually, you wont want ot go back.

now roll on flash 10.

Make you mind up!

Since when did your comments in December,

"it doesn't quite cut it in the quality stakes. Images suffer badly from light saturation and capture easily blurs unless you hold it extremely still.

Video drops the quality even more and while we wouldn't be ashamed to use it to post on Youtube, we probably wouldn't want to shout about it either."

and the blurry, washed out sample shots that followed, suddenly turn into the verdict of "a decent camera" in this review?
