Froyo Email is not ready for prime time. I can't seem to find a setting for do not delete from server and notifications do not appear when an email is received.

someone may have suggested this already but just cause it shows Move to SD, that doesn't mean the app supports that feature. There are several apps on my G1 running froyo that do not support it. More frustrating on a device with limited storage which the EE doesn't have much of a problem with as far as apps are concerned.

I agree. I am also having a problem with getting my books that I bought from Entourage's book store back into my library. I was finally able to re-register my EE with Adobe, but Entourage's server does not want to recognize me so that I can re-download them from the store.

I also am having a problem with downloads. I try to download an app from either the Amazon store or the EE app store and it always says, "download failed".

From my experience with Froyo on my Epic 4g, any app that supports the feature of moving to SD will give you the choice and if the app doesn't support it will grey out the "move to SD" button. The feature just doesn't seem to work on the eDGe.

Kveroneau . . . you have been using an eDGe with a SIM card? I thought someone said that the SIM slot on the EE didn't do anything. If your eDGe actually works with a SIM card, I'd like to hear more about it in case I could get a 3G or 4G SIM card for my eDGe.

In his recommendation of Android sites and apps, Boris includes a program called Calibre which was also updated for the eDGe by another member, mrspaceman. I wonder if this would be useful to you -- I want to try it myself (and possibly Repligo) -- and I wonder if Boris has checked out Calibre with the new update.

I had similiar issues with Amazon App Store. Clear the app data for the App store and it work.

Well Guyjack agrees with you, but I have no trubble with Froyo Email. There is a notification, a black envelope, in the notificationbar. Not deleting from server can be chosen in the incomming settings.

I finally took the plunge last night. I haven't tested everything out yet and I have had issues with the little testing I have done but my opinion is I would rather have this Beta version than not. The browser does crash fairly often and the Flash Lite is very hit or miss on what it work with. The eReader Rotate function is nice but needs a lot work work (redraw issues is really buggy and sometimes never redraws properly and I have had completely black screens and some books will crash rather than rotate.) Also, navigating the book in landscape mode needs some more thought. I really don't want to have to read a book requiring the stylus in my hand. Also, I had problems setting up the Froyo email but I'll work on that a bit more tonight.

Overall, it is faster and I would rather have Flash Lite that works sometimes than no Flash Lite at all. YouTube in the browser works quite well, for example. Which is cool. No hibernation issues yet but I haven't tested that as thoroughly as others have.

I swear it's not there for me, incoming settings offers me username password IMAP server port security type IMAP path prefix optional and next, which just checks server settings

I have a POP3 server instead IMAP and security to NONE, makes that a difference for the options?

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before, but I saw a very nice new app in Ermine: Search. It searches the whole eDGe!

I switched to MailDroid on my eDGes several months ago. Works very well, including things like incoming email notifications.

I love this update. Did it last night, then charged my Pocket Edge. Everything went smoothly, no hiccups whatsoever. Best part, in my opinion, is hibernate now works as it should. Just close the Edge and after18 hours of hibernating, the battery only went down 7%. That's a big deal for me. I admit I stopped using my PE just because of the hassle of having to charge it even when I didn't use it at all for a day. And personally, I hate having to wait about 3 minutes just for it to startup. I have a Windows laptop that does that, thank you. Much snappier, just about everything works better than before. I didn't know that the software part of it really made that much of a difference. I was getting ready to ditch it this month, until this update. Now, it has use again for me.

Browser crashes seem to happen more in desktop mode. My browser crashed multiple times after switching, stopped when I went back to mobile view.
