AT&T and Motorola have released an update to the Motorola BACKFLIP device to enhance overall performance of the device. This software update provides improvements to messaging, display, camera, and Bluetooth functionality. This update will upgrade BACKFLIP devices from software version 0.12.1199 to 0.13.35.

This Blur Over The Air (BOTA) update will be a two stage process. The first update will be marked “1 of 2” and will take between 35 seconds and one (1) minute to download over 3G. The second update will be marked “2 of 2” and will take between three (3) and 10 minutes to download over 3G. The updates will download in the background and customers can resume normal operation of the device during the downloads. While customers can use their device as normal during the download process, they will be unable to make and receive calls during the installation of the update.

The update will be made available for customers who check for updates from their device on May 5, 2010. The updates will be pushed to customer devices beginning May 11, 2010.

PS: Doesn't appear to be live yet.
 
For those who have installed the full update:

If you go to menu->settings->applications->development
Can you still check USB debugging?

Can you still install non-market apps?

Does tethering still work (PDANet or EasyTether)?

Can you turn off 3G?

If you run the market app and then go to the My downloads area and then menu->notifications does the market app still force close?
