I heard that 2.2 will support Exchange that requires a PIN number for extra security. Can anyone verify this for me? I'm debating on whether or not to purchase TouchDown or just wait until I'm able to upgrade to 2.2.
The exchange support in 2.2 is much better. You have the choice of a password/pin. You can set a time-out for the password/pin so that you won't have to put the pin in every time your screen shuts off. You can also set some time based sync rules. I have mine setup to receive push notification between a given set of hours and then sync every 4 hours after that. ActiveSync also seems to recover from sync errors much better in 2.2 so i don't have to manually deleate the account and re-add it to recover from a ActiveSync error.
With that said, the leak does have a few bugs here and there and it may be worth waiting for the official release. I actually have a new phone on the way because of some camera related issues that i was hoping 2.2 would fix. I'll probably wait until the official OTA hits before upgrading this time around.
