I kan has upgrade?

I just got off the phone with a T-mobile PDA Tech Rep. He said there will be an official update in the next few days.

He says the engineers have listened to their customers about addressing the issue of available storage / ram on the Wing. This new update should run a bit faster, and give you more storage space as well as program memory.

The rep said that when they receive the word that there will be an upcoming update, the update will be uploaded to the t-mobile support site within days. My guess is to check back on wednesday the 9th.

Any update on this?

I checked this morning after i paid my bill and all. still nothing. either there is a delay in the release for some reason or the rep was misinformed. I seriously hope its not the latter.

Here's a direct link to the wing support site. once they post the update there will be a "Update software" link

Still nothing. I'm getting a little disappointed. I'm starting to believe that the rep was either misinformed, or blowing smoke. weak.

It's good news either way, but I doubt that it would actually be better than the cooked ROMs we see here.

Is this something I would be able to get OTA? When I bought my Wing from my buddy, he didn't have the disc with the drivers so I can't hook it up via USB.

Can I get the files from the disc online anywhere to get it to work?

i wonder. would it be a 6.1 rom? maybe even a '202 or '209. unlikely, but one can still fantasize no? Any ideas on what build they would use?

That's what I thought, too. When I plug mine in, I get nothing. Perhaps I have a setting wrong? I'm running XP Pro with SP2 and it's legit. Are you sure I don't need a driver?

After having gotten ecxcited myself, I did a little checking. T-Mobile does not officialy admit any upgrades (or anything new at all) planed or otherwise for the Wing. I am a sales rep. for T-Mobile and I carry the wing day in and day out. Have done tons of calling to our tech reps and no one knows anything about an update or upgrade. sad to say but I fear we may be out of luck. T-Mobile is going to a UTMA network and the Wing will probably fall to the wayside as an "incompatible" phone. a sad fate for such a great device. I am hoping some one out there is going to prove me wrong. Please prove me wrong!
