Soooooo, anyway. Moving on. The update obviously isn't available yet. Does it really matter, though? I remember reading tons of posts on here about how buggy it was.

there are tons of reports on how buggy every update is. Its all based on what you want & use your phone for. Some prefer 2.0.1 & some 2.1.0. For example the calendar bug doesn't affect me since I don't use my calendar at all. There are also fixes, patches & work arounds for almost every issue found.

That's what makes webos & the forum so good, with a little reading you can have any pre working exactly How you want it, satisfying everyone. But we need more sustainable factual threads with validated & verified information in them & less speculated statements.

I just doctored using the test-verizon-pre2-2.1.0 meta doctor script. Skype works and all the VZW carrier apps are there. Also, it uses a newer version of the voice dial app from the Veer that fixes some of the bugginess. I think I'm going to stick with the meta doctor.

Hmmm... the meta-doctor seems a little buggy. I was getting the TMC error, GPS seems to not work, and the phone seems laggy at times. I am doctoring back to 2.0.1 and waiting for the VZW official update.

Verizon Finally Releases webOS 2.1 to Pre 2 users! - Verizon Wireless Community
This link is from the Verizon Forum. Read the bottom post from the Verizon Rep. It sounds like we are wasting our time refreshing in hopes of an update.

I really hope this person is wrong and we still see the update this week.

I'd personally prefer a bump to 2.2 and skip 2.1 - I feel like HP has their head on straight when it comes to polish now and would rather get that then a bug filled mess.

Maybe.

All I have to say is that if we don't get it now, then we better damn well get 2.2 before the GSM knuckleheads get it.

If not we should all riot and flood VZW with hate-mail. All five of us.

It is sad that there are so few of us Verizon Pre2 users.

I also saw this article confirming that users were starting to receive the update on Saturday.

Verizon’s Palm Pre 2 Gets Official webOS 2.1 Update

[pow12390]

This one is from today, haha I'm bored at work.

WebOS 2.1 Now Available for the Verizon Pre 2

WebOS 2.1 update for that device is starting to roll out as an OTA update

[fxspec06]

Collective sigh of relief? More like, collective sigh of 'I know this feeling.'

I feel like that donkey who can't quite reach the carrot.

[pow12390]

Dude, I know exactly how you feel. I bought a pre- back in December and was expecting an update to 2.0. It never happened, then I went ahead and switched to Verizon to get my Pre2 and was once again stuck at 2.0.1. Once I get a pre3 it will most likely be unlocked to avoid these issues.

[YankBoy]

Exactly how does the voice dialing work anyway?

oops nm, you said unlocked.

[fxspec06]

Exactly how does the voice dialing work anyway?

you hold the volume button and say who you want to call

or if you have a bluetooth headset you press the button and say who you want to call

not sure how they can just avoid this for this long.

those with BT headsets, you know what i mean

no update here in california yet. anyone get this?

[IGNTNUNLMTD]

What's the build number?

[pow12390]

**Update** It looks like just a handful got access to this update and both sides are quiet about the update so those that go it was either an accidental fluke or some controlled release. I still have another VZ Pre2 that say it is up to date with 2.0.1, GRR.

**Update2** http://forums.precentral.net/showthr...=1#post3002559

My VZW Pre2 gave me the notification of the 2.1.0 update so go get yer exhibition and voice dial!

OP, what is the build number for 2.1?

[artwest50]

Well, I'm thinking of just getting the Palm Pre 2 instead of waiting for the Palm Pre 3 (financial reasons); however, they have the price back up to 99 dollars everywhere. Wasn't it a month ago when it was down to 49 dollars?

[fxspec06]

It's a $100 phone easy IHMO. It's up there, top of the line, right with the best of 'em. It's the great phone that nobody cared about.

Yep, I'll agree with you that it is worth the $100.00 sticker. I just hope that whether I get it or not; that HP will heep it updated through webos 3.x!
