Still did not get the OTA anyone else?

No dice in Detroit.

I'm pretty anxious but I know that they are doing the roll out over such a long period of time not so much because of bugs, the first 3 days would tell them if anything was wrong causing phones to brick. They do it so thousands of Eris owners aren't plowing the servers all at once causing mass outages across the network from sheer overload.

I work for IBM and when we do large updates on the network, we roll them out over a period of time, but we have a method of determining who's in each phase.

For all of you waiting and are on 1.5, you do know there is a way to manually install the OTA, right? Just look at the most updated thread here on the forums for instructions on how to do it. You don't have to sit and wait for Verizon to finally push it to your phone.

I saw that. I am looking forward to getting 2.1, but the truth is that mine is working just fine with 1.5, and I kind of enjoy the "update roulette", seeing which day this will actually fall for me. I've waited this long; I've had the phone since December, and I first recall reading that an Eclair update was coming in early January. I can wait a bit longer.

San Diego, still no OTA :( I've been good about waiting so far, but now that I'm seeing all these people talk about how snappy their phone is once they finally got the OTA, I'm sooo impatient! I'm friggin' dreaming that I wake up and my phone is beeping, waiting for me to update. Only to really wake up and it's just the same ol' screen :( Pretty sad I know...

and I dont want to manually do it. I'm weird; I want the "official" OTA. I get poor signal at my house so I even have wifi and 3G on..just in case.
