I might have spoken too soon. Backup was cruising along, but it has "stalled" at about 20% or 25%.

Super Monkey Ball is acting weird. Some audio tracks get slowed down to the point they sound funny. When a level begins and the voice asks "ready?", sometimes, it sounds like Darth Vader is asking me the question. Safari quits on me more often. I think that in my case, 2.1 made it worse, since I did not suffer due to dropped calls, contact search lag, or poor signal before.

***Note: I am using 2G Iphone***

I definitely believe there are some issues that came along with this new helpful firmware update.

I have noticed that the backup is much shorter(mine was always fairly quick), the contact list is still delayed just a tiny tiny bit but good enough, and the texting is so much better because it never lags!

I had a weak battery after my full charge after updating to 2.1. After changing both my Gmail and Exchange email accounts to fetch hourly they batter has lasted much much longer. Also, when checking email, the downloading seems to be a bit faster which is also nice.

So far I am happy with my 2.1 update I used my phone all day Friday, went out with friends, left the bar at midnight got a call from a friend she went though high water and flodded her car I took her home and made calls till about 1:45. Forgot to charage my phone, got up at 630 to go pick her up so we could look at her car. by the time I was done helping her I had 32+ hours and over 6 house of usage and still have 1/4 of my battery left. This is by far the best update yet (for battery life that is.)

What happened to the UPDATE ALL button in the App Store "updates" option? It seems one now has to update each app one at a time. TELL APPLE TO PUT THIS BACK!

Having browser crashes, much less app crashes (still have them though), and weird Edge coverage. It goes to one bar, to no service to 4 bars in the home even in the same spot.

I know at&t is playing with femtocells like the sprint airwave. Hopefully this won't take much longer as that would solve my major con.
