fyi, i just got my W900i today and it had R5AF001. don't really know what the difference is with your firmware.

in any case, i did an OTA check and it said that it was the latest version, so i guess that's what you should be looking out for.

Yep, did an update about 5 minutes ago, just because I was trying to get the SEUS updater working. Funnily enough, there's nothing new available yet

At least it recognises the phone though... I assume anyone with the C firmware is also still getting nothing new?

Give it a couple of weeks after that Vodafone exclusivity thing runs out and they might release something. They can't hold out on a phone this buggy forever (although I haven't had too many issues).

Re: The multiple-letter contact search, I'm running R5AF001 and it seems to work fine on that fw.

dantheman - where'd you get hold of the new w900i firmware?

i don't see it mentioned on the davinci/TMS forums. And i'd like to upgrade to it.
