    You should manually update Facebook, if you use it.

    Or, any other stock apps that came with your phone, that you enjoy using. Apparently, as I understand it, the apps that came with your phone won't notify you they have updates (when/if they do) because that is handled through Market, and as far as Market knows, you've never downloaded the app...

    Upon hitting "Send," is there anyway to cancel it before it sends? I remember on my LG Rhythm, I could hit the End button 2-3 seconds after hitting send and it would cancel the message. Anyone?

    "Zippiness, punchiness, and overall speeditude"
