                              As Kenny said about Froyo upgrade its highly confidential.
                              Believe this: If there is a chance for getting Froyo, it will only happen after the Galaxy 3 gets it so no questions any more till then.
                              Wait people wait..........................

                                      People, pls dont compare battery lives cos dey depend on the applications u use. If u just use it for calls, messaging and music, it will last quite long. It takes about 3.5 hrs for full 100% charging of the phone. Dont pull of the wire before that and say that it has poor battery life. :-|

                                        To everyone facing problems,
                                        Heavy usage especially games cause it to restart sometimes. Its a general issue. Dont b worried about it. Use ATK to kill big apps running in the background when opening too much apps together. Thats it. Ready to clear any more doubts :)
