              As usual issues with samsung! The same way samsung had issues before with upgrading android with 2.2.

              Let's face it samsung are top notch in hardware but with software they suck big time. And therefore I'll still pass samsung handsets since the software is most important for me, than bragging about a hardware that I won't be using all it's features.

                                      Why are you guys saying that its Microsoft's fault? Samsung is the only manufacturer that has a problem with the update. And it seems that Samsung always has a software compatibility issues whatever OS it uses. Remember they have Froyo update issues as well with their Galaxy S?

                                        Cut Microsoft some slack...at least they've evolved from a blue error screen to black with a phone and a politically correct explanation basically saying "you're screwed"...
