ota update went smoothly, and working great - thanks ...

If anyone else is using Aliendalvik et al from another device, I found that you need to update:
For Aliendalvik: aliendalvik, aliendalvik-configs, and aliendalvik-system
For Exchange Activesync - sailfish-eas, libsailfish-eas, and libsailfish-eas-common

Xt9 seems to be working fine...
