So, may I ask of the people who have gotten this update, did it address the constant "too many cards" error? Also: did it speed anything up? or was this just a bugfixing mission?

Some Release Notes would be nice.

That first link is rather circular don't you think? Think you could make that a non-link and note that it is *this* thread?

Bad idea making the thread title "New Features and Changes" and then not listing any. thorne

I am having brutal multiple keystroke issues on Pre+ I just got my 4th one directly from Palm and it's a refurb that has been "tested" and it was multiple typing one key out of the box and now 5 days later 5 or 6 keys a multiple typing!

The Palm rep says that this "software issue" has been addressed in 1.4.1. Can anyone confirm this?

Golly. I'm a little concerned that the memory issues introduced in 1.4 aren't listed. I hope they fixed something here...

I do not read that says nothing about the bug multitasking

Reply

Yeah me neither, I hope it was just too esoteric for them to include in the changelog. We'll see.

don't get your hopes up ppl, Palm more than likey will wait until the release of Evo to REALLY address the critical issues with the Palm Pre

There were also some changes to the way the system does garbage collection. This should help with some of the memory issues introduced in 1.4.

I have just updated my UK pre and have found that the phone is a lot smoother, no problems with cards.

Never had no problems with multi key stokes before so cant answer if thats been fixed.

On the main working fine...now just to reinstall the 800mhz patch............

Engadget app now longer works at the mo!
