I don't think so. I just genuinely think they are having problems with the mail tool. The Q Global has been a bit of its own beast. Its built differently from the Q, the Q9c, and the Q9m. That is evidenced in nearly all 3rd party apps because SOMETHING is always wrong with the app, when it works nicely on the other Q's.

That and the keyboard are the reasons I stayed away from the iphone as much as I admire it.

Say goodbye to 3rd party apps for the most part. Theres some cool things the iPhone does, but you can't even get custom ringtones on there if you have the latest firmware installed !!!! You have to buy some stupid app to make ringtones. And if you already have ringtones you wanna transfer and you have the latest version of firmware, good luck....

I don't thing the iPhone does tethering either (BT or wired).

Oh yeah, that too. Doesn't do that either.

And you can't browse the phone's file structure unless you jailbreak it.

There's a lot of things the phone CAN'T do, or can, but Apple just crippled it so you can't without some modding.

For that reason, makes the phone suck. So limited. Cool touch screen and accelerometer and all, but compared to the customizability of WinMo phones, it just sucks. I like the threaded text, but again, no customization with it.

People can bash WinMo all day, but there are apps and features and customizations it can do that no other phones do. And its not limited to one or 2 devices either....

This is because some providers, like Sprint, have already released the update to their customers. It is us Q9h (AT&T) customers who are screwed waiting and waiting and there is no hope in sight for it. It sucks.

That is a link to some software that will help you download updates for your Motorola phone. No need for alarm... as I'm sure it's AT&T that will give the go ahead on the update (not moto).
