^^OK, does anyone have any idea why my installation keeps getting interrupted? I tried it for RUN and SAVE and they both won't install.
(BTW, I'm using Vista).

OK, so the link is working...and I am still trying to install DM 4.5 but is there also a separate Handheld software download available? Is it the device manager at the bttom of the page?

I've been holding out for an official release before I did anything to my 8320 running 4.2.2.180 on Tmobile.
I installed this update today, other than it taking so long to upgrade, programs seem to work fine. I did have to re-run a few setup things for certain programs (like re-accepting the google maps agreement), and also re-entering the WAP.VOICESTREAM.COM setting in the TCP settings in Network. other than that everything seems to be running smoothly on both UMA and EDGE. Nice upgrade!

JS,
Do you happen to know why my installation keeps getting interrupted? The link is now working, and I also saved it onto my computer so I could try to install at any time. For some reason, I can't get past the installation stage. I was able to download 4.3 earlier today, but it kept giving me the connection setup error, so I looked it up and tried to download 4.2 SP2. That one was interrupted as well, which is when you suggested 4.5. Now 4.5 won't install either. It is driving me insane! I have no DM on the new laptop, which blows because I can't sync/backup my BB on it.
I am so ready to chuck this stupid laptop!

I've been running this version for the past 1+ week. It works very well and is very stable. I am running on T Mobile for those worried about their SIM cards.

I've had it around a week as well and Tmobile SIM is still alive.
Voicemail icon is back, UMA works and seems stable. I did a 35 minute test call while using a Motorola H700 bluetooth headset and the call held. Has a memory leak, but its slow and since it starts with much more free memory to begin with, there's less reason to keep checking memory.
With video recording, voice recording, html email, and a better browser, I'm pretty happy. Completely lost any lingering desire for an iphone.

PCGirl, have you tried loading the DM to your Vista laptop using Administrator rights on the laptop? The vista machine is whoosh over my head, I'm a refuznik, and have stuck with XP for now.
But I know many have had issues loading DM on vista machines.

I have vista as well. Try turning off any virus protecting software you have installed.

I'm not sure if I did the administrator thing. I'll try it.
JS - trust me, I wanted XP on this notebook but it was such a PITA to try and get it ordered before the license ran out and then my husband got a notebook at the same time and he didn't care that he got Vista so it would be weird to have one with XP and one with Vista since we bought all the software together and anyway we have other computers that use XP and we're keeping those around as well. But what's weird is that I was able to download DM on my husband's Vista notebook and my first Vista notebook (the one I'm on now is a replacement since the touchscreen on the other tablet sometimes stopped working).
dhollins - I was thinking that it could be an AV issue - I just converted from Norton (just learned it was a resource hog!) to AVG and I haven't been able to turn it off. Any AVG users out there??

^^Well, I tried the administrator thing and it didn't work. I tried both the multi-language and the english version. Now I'm trying to figure out how to turn off AVG without having to uninstall it.

Is it not as simple as right clicking the icon on the task bar and exiting AVG?
As a side note, I updated, it went fine. Things are working great (not gloating, PCgirl). Thanks all for the walkthroughs, etc.

Upgrade Question!
I am thinking of doing the upgrade to 4.5 Orange UK. I have a Tmo 8320. My question is what will be missing in my phone as far as Tmobile is concerned? Will I be able to Access T-zones for example? Or will my phone basically have all the Orange info in it? IM scared!!! What shall I expect in this upgrade?
