Again... Released by whom? First off... The people you spoke with would not actually know... Only those at corporate would actually know, and would not know until they have the firmware in hand from LG, which only happened recently. Again, it was LG that stated "by end of first quarter" which Sprint people were merely repeating. Now... Sprint is seriously dropping the ball here, as everyone else has already loaded up their version of the firmware with their own bloatware, and released... Why is Sprint so slow on this? Probably because they have bigger fish to fry, and their customers don't like them anyway... So why rush.
My point, again, is that I have seen no actual written commitment from Sprint to update the G2 by end of quarter, and this being Friday, and Monday being the last day of the quarter, it's probably *not* coming before then. If it does, GREAT, you an I will BOTH be thrilled. But I am not holding my breath. Could be weeks, for all we know. You can call Sprint Customer Care and ask if you like, but they cannot tell you the truth about it, because they don't know either.
