BTW, OS 2006 2.1 (Scirocco) works for me!

Should I update or should I stay as is until a major release?
If it ain't broke don't fix it; the changes in 2.1 improve stability slightly but add no new features.

I've heard (meaning: I'm pretty certain I read it somewhere but, being an old fart, can't remember where for the love of bytes) that the update improves character input significantly.
Can someone (and preferrably more than one person) confirm or debunk that rumour?

If you use the thumb-board, the uprade is worth it. Not only is input more accurate, but 2.1 fixes a bug when you are using the thumb board and re-orient the cursor with the hard key. K.

I mean... No, I just hate it. It just doesn't work for me.
I want to update but my 770 is running very smooth with OS2006 first release and I dont want to go thru the head ache of re installing all my apps if is not worth the upgrade.

Thanks in advance!
