What I do is check the device's version and click on system update. When it gives the old "you are up to date message", I just reboot the device. The OTA update comes through immediately thereafter most of the time in my experiences.

I am rooted and I flashed the latest (at the time) clockwork recovery. Does that prevent firmware upgrades? EDIT: I also changed the screen DPI config so I can landscape the desktop. That would be redundant now that it is built into the new firmware upgrade. It seems strange that it would report 4.1.1 as "up to date" instead of giving some kind of error message.

I totally love being able to use the home screens in landscape mode. I was forever flipping my Nexus into landscape before realising when the icons/screens didn't move and having to flip it back into portrait.

Deodex disassembles the odexed file into different places, it takes up less space, it runs a bit slower, but it can be themed by rom developers. Odin is a different beast altogether which is a PC program that allows one to write ROMS/Kernels directly from PC to a samsung phone. Or at least that is my current take on the matter |

There are stronger rumours that the 16GB model will be replaced with a 32GB at the same price point of $250. However, the $25 voucher for the play store is supposed to have ended (though some people are still getting it), so it turns out to be roughly the same deal, $225 for 16GB vs $250 for 32GB.

I look at the $25 credit as a freebie to be used for stuff I wouldn't normally buy. |

I'm well aware of what Odin is, having had to use it a few times. I just hadn't come across the terms Odexed and Deodexed applied to ROMs. Using older ROMs on my hoary Galaxy S, I hadn't seen any links that made the distinction.
