Yes for the non-rooted devices. Give it a few days and a rooted version should be out

Thanks! That is what did it for me. It kept saying no updates were available until I rebooted the phone.

So based on a couple threads in this section it's going live. Rather than everyone posting whether or not they can/have/want to download, can we focus on those who have it installed and what they find as far as bugs, hidden additions/fixes etc???

DLing now, Its about d*mn time. At this point, if its a marginal upgrade I will get my ROOT on.

So I guess this is probably a stupid question and I have looked at other threads, but what is the big deal about this update? Should I really be that excited to get Gingerbread? I can't seem to find any info about what exactly will be different about it. Thanks for any input.

The new OS has quite a few additions. If you haven't found what the differences are, there are more threads you need to read.

Now there aren't as many new functions as there would be if the update included the new Sense 2.1 or 3.0, but there are still quite a few fixes/additions.
