I realize the 8300 is the least exciting of the 83xx family since the 8310 and 8320 came out, but a few of us are still using them -- I'm hanging on to mine until a 9xxx comes out for T-Mobile: no desire to pay the price for upgrading twice in a year!

Sad though that even the leaked upgrades seem few and far between for the 8300 when compared to the other models. Had to wait a long time between .37 and .52, and now it feels like forever since .52 for the 8300 surfaced online. Since then...nothing...

Getting lonely here!

From what I gather, the latest unreleased version of the 8300 OS is 4.5.0.69

Yes...I've seen it on lists such as the one Horizon posts, and it's been confirmed by a couple of mods, but for whatever reason, the actual "leaks" of 8300 betas are few and far between compared to those for 8310 and 8320...

I agree. I got the 8300 just as it came out, and I loved it. And I wouldn't change it ... unless it's for a bold ... which I'm planing on doing ASA it comes out. hehe and is less than $1000 haha. Just like Jesse Spano, I'm sooo excited ... but i'm not about to take caffeine pills

Still waiting :( Battery dies after 18 hours of my usage. Not used to this. On 4.2 I got 2 full days.
