Just upgraded from 266 to 282. I did /not/ wipe the BB first.

It was a seamless process, and I didn't even have to re-register the usual 3rd party apps this time with the serial numbers. Saved quite a bit of time.

It seems a little faster, especially the browser. There is a definite app memory increase of about 7 mb. The 2G/3G switch now works. I loaded the VVM this time and it does show the voice mail icon. I wonder when ATT will actually give us VVM? I don't know yet about battery life improvements with this version.

I've said this before, but this time I think I mean it. No reason to upgrade any more 4.6.0.xxx OSes, and just wait for a stable 5.0 OS.
