Default No leaks? (Firmware)

Coming from Sprint and HTC we had leaks galore surrounding the release of 2.1 By the time it was released we had been running it for a couple of months. Is Sammy and the Death Star better at containing leaks or have there just not been that many releases?

IF a leak hits it will probably be from samsung-firmwares. They already posted one 2.1 captivate leak and I am sure that as soon as they got a hold of 2.2 they will release it.

If Samsung can actually meet its deadline 2.2 will be out next month. I have also noticed that some of the fimwares leaked from samsung contain the carrier software. If Samsung is doing the carrier modifications for them it should be much quicker to ship than the typical vendor to carrier setup.

thanks. I'm getting the itch. This thing's running stock firmware with Unhelpful's kernel and no bloat.

Sprint coverage here sucks. I don't have 4G and don't want to pay extra for a service I can't use, so here I is.

I switched last month to AT&T for the exact same reason. I actually gave up two SERO plans. But I was wondering the same thing. On my WinMo I was constanly finding new ROM builds almost weekly. Now using a non-HTC phone and android does seem to take some getting used to.

Looking forward to 2.2 when it is availible!
