I dont know what all this panic about the silent feature is about, just hold the power button for a few sec and tap the silent mode and guess what, it is in silent mode, will not vibrate or beep, click or whistle. It has been this way since day one. I don't use the lock screen so I have used this every night since I got the X on launch day!

That only puts the phone on vibrate. It clearly says "silent mode" when you do that. I'll give you that much. But when selected, it puts the phone on vibrate.

I noticed that the notification bar at the top of the home screen pulsates different shades of green when the phone is charging now. Pretty cool
You running stock 2.2?
Certainly not worth the wait
WOULD PREFER TO GO BACK TO 2.1....
Reasons:
1. Very slow
2. Horrible keypad
3. Swype will not space after entering word (was set to do so in settings)
4. Messaging did not work at all until after 3-4 battery pulls
5. Email has to occasionally (very) to be manually refreshed to get mail
6. Beautiful weather continues to foreclose using google weather, work with accu-weather (but runs 7-10 degrees off)
7. A lot of hesitation using the unlock swype
8. Gallery is horrible...reduces the actual size of photos

Ok was excited to update for the improvement and the Adobe flash.
Worked pretty good yesterday and today my phone performance was just horrible. Lots of lag, when playing music it lags, Scrolling between screens lag, had to restart my phone about 3 or 4 times today. Never had these problems on 2.1. So far I am very unhappy with 2.2. I see people have dislikes about some of the technical issues but mines are the very basic issues that i'm having problems with. Hope this gets fixed and can't see how this can be just my phone considering I never had these problems.

Took the battery out and did the *228 option 1 to program the phone and nothing.... But it's cool though. I'll weather the storm and see how this goes.

I just wanted to thank you guys for really getting into this thread.
It being my first post I can't believe It got so much feedback and traffic.
Guess I jumped on a good topic of discussion ha.
Btw - Day 2 and my Droid X is still running strong.
Battery life is killer, despite the seemingly unnecessary 12-18 apps that somehow end up open on their own.
Loving the flow the update.
