Hmm, I don't know then. I know .240 is a bad build though, you don't wanna even touch that. But I also heard a lot of people at RIM weren't even using this build because it was bad.

I'm waiting to see what the battery life is like with .241 before I make any final decisions on it. Last night I wasn't impressed so I'll keep an eye on it today. I'd also like to hear some feedback on the 3G signal and if it's improved or worse.

Default Learned my lesson - sort of.. :)

OK - THIS time I'm going to use XP or Windows Server2003 to update the phone instead of Windows 7. So I've learned that using a beta to update a beta isn't bright.

On the other hand... I'm updating the phone, right? Again. Don't they have a patch you can wear from the drug store for this sort of addiction?

Been running it all day and I haven't noticed any issues. Who is saying to run away from it?

I removed it yesterday, battery life was horrid to say the least. With .237 I'm getting great battery life and I'm also reading on other forums that .241 isn't a solid build either, it was released to fix the media player bug. I haven't been hearing any good things about .244 either.

No issues with 241 at all. Signal and battery are no different than 237 for me.

I have been running .241 for a couple of days and it has performed fine for me. No noticeable reduction of battery life. Applications including slingplayer beta work without issue. Running Bold on at&t network. Upgraded from .234 which seemed to have some font issues.

I'm still running .167. I'm a tad risk-averse when it comes to by BB and just want to upgrade to the next official version (.221) or maybe .237. Is there any way to do this OTA? I don't have the desktop software.
Thanks!

Not unless your carrier releases it officially. There is a wireless upgrade option, but I've never seen a release done that way.
