who hasnt gotten the OTA update?

I didn't wait for OTA. Downloaded the updater onto my laptop at work and updated my phone on the way home yesterday. (I carpool for an hour long commute every day... no, I wasn't driving!)

The manual update wiped the phone and returned it to factory "out of the box" with 2.2.1. I anticipated this, and made a list of all my apps, and shortcut locations on my home screens.

Nothing here in Las Vegas. And I don't know of anyone else who has gotten it. It's bad enough I've had to wait since the damned thing launched (yep, bought it the day it hit the store), then they tease me with this crap? Good thing the folks responsible for this wonderful delay aren't around me or I'd beat 'em upside the head with my phone till my watch broke!

Just outside Chicago and no update OTA for me either. However, I took the "plunge" and did update.zip method. Worked without a hitch. I was never rooted, nothing too fancy on my phone. I seriously wouldn't hesitate a second to do it manually, especially if you were in need of it for some strange reason anyway.

Here's what I posted in the other thread if you care to read about my experience:

Total time including backing up (I'm quite anal about that stuff): less than 15 minutes
