Maybe it's just me but .76 doesn't seem as fast or as responsive as .75. I have seen this before though and it changes after it has sit for awhile. No idea why. I will see what it's like tomorrow.

Maybe that's why it seems slow to me. Maybe it's junk.

What? No way! That would mean BGR lied when they said .76 made .75 stop in it's tracks. BGR said .76 was so much better than .75 so theres no way there isn't a HUGE difference. BGR wouldn't lie.

fwiw, there was only about 21 hours difference between build .75 and build .76... then again, when you put developers under pressure, you'd be surprised what can be done in a day ;)

Since you said "about" I'll let it slide. It was less.

You can still download it even if the link above doesnt work. I went to blackberry.com and then under support, download there is an option to find by wireless supplier (or something like that) and you find Bell Mobility and its there....

That said.. I too think it is slower and will either go back to .75 or see what Vzw releases tomorrow (if anything).

For those who got lucky and got it, any extra themes to unlock? I checked blackbery.alx but can't find anything.

One improvment I noticed over .75 is improved dial pad responsivnes under phone. Also some said that is slower then .75. I noticed that aslo but as time is going by and one reboot to install Gmail application it is becoming faster.

Really though? I take BGR with a grain of salt.

I just finished installing and will be upgrading firmware in a couple mins.
