[22c-user] Ring tones, case and cable

Wed Apr 11 03:20:58 UTC 2007

Thanks, Arianna. We're doing our best because we also love and use this
phone ourselves.

And, yes. We will most certainly announce upgrades via this list. We
will also provide a mechanism for people to send us their phones to be
upgraded for a nominal fee. And, we'll publish the firmware on line for
those who have data cables and can flash their phones themselves. In
fact, there's already the beginning of this support on line. Take a look
at:

OK, it needs some work! <grin>
