    Push update?

    Once the phone notifies me of the system update, how do I permanenty prevent its installation and repeated pop=up notifications of its presence? I think I remember that I have to find the .zip file on the memory card and rename it or delete it? can someone verify?

    Optimus S vs. (insert phone)

    You are losing Android 2.2, and the speed and performance that comes along with this great hardware/software combo. I'm not sure how much of the gret performance on Optimus can be attributed to the hardware vs the software, though. Maybe if the Transform was on 2.2, it would perform better...

    Is this the low end on Sprint to get?

    Definitely get the Optimus. Overall superior to the Hero. Besides, the Hero won't be supported much longer. The Optimus is new, and Sprint will hopefully support it for awhile. Maybe Gingerbread? The Optimus S specs are good. Too good for $49 with upgrade in fact. So I did some...

    Is this the low end on Sprint to get?

    I disagree. I've had a Hero for a year now, and it was not the most pleasant experience. It's an ok phone, but the Optimus seems like a solid phone as well. Superior to the Hero in many ways (memory, processor, OS, speed, etc), inferior in only a few (no light sensor, and no...
