I dont understand what they are warning the users about. Only for expert users and not for general public use. what does that even mean.

              I find it funny that you desire peeps are moaning because HTC are taking ages, I've got a darn X10 and still on 2.1 FFS! Apparently gingerbread has rolled out recently so wait and see ayee

                      Just updated mine, it is running just fine, no problems what so ever with SMS/MMS, and now I have much more free space for the apps I really care for, great update HTC, if it didn't take so long.

                                    On Froyo I had 136mb internal memory free after a factory reset. Those who have upgraded to Gingerbread, kindly post the amount of free memory left after upgradation. And also whether wifi, sms, etc are working properly or not. Kindly mention what all apps are removed. BTW I am in India using an unbranded Desire and there is no update available as yet. Even after manual check.

                                        This is the final straw. Dear HTC, my next phone will not be from you. As much as I loved your company up until now, that much I will hate it, because of your lousy customer support. And I am sure I am not the only one...
