Anyone got an updated system?

I don't have the "software update" option... just the "software information" in my "about Phone" sub-folder on my MT4G... ??
I just checked our son's MT4G. It is still running 2.2.1 and does not have the software update menu selection either. That may be something that came with the original 2.3 update. Both my phone and my wife's phone were running 2.3 - hers from an OTA update and mine from an in-store update. He'll just have to wait for the OTA.

No waiting, here you go. Click on this link, read the info & download the PD15IMG.zip file (embedded link in white text), install as per the instructions, and you're good to go. Now you can run the sequence I said earlier, and the "check now" button will be available. Yes this is the official T-Mobile file and I've done four phones with this file no problem.

You CAN download it manually.

menu/settings/about phone/software update/check now

There should be a pop-up window offering you an update.

Pick which method.

Follow directions.

Done.
My phone does not have an option there for software update, or check now. I think that is on newer versions then mine has. And I'm not comfortable downloading it and installing it. I just want the ota update.
