    What are the benefits of froyo? The only thing i can see that is worthwhile is the HD recording.

    ive herad that on froyo your apps will get stored to the sd card(named app2sd) whereas currently they are stored to the phones memory which means you are quite limited in terms of space

    The new radio also enables cat 6 hsupa like the galaxy s, giving you theoretical upload speeds up to 5.76mbit and lower latencies (if your network supports it).

    Isn't the major benefit of the Froyo upgrade, full flash support so all BBC videos will work as opposed to just certain ones like present?

    yes forgot to mention the flash support. the xda developers threads has comments that bbc videos are working fine. btw it is still in beta stage, with a few bugs present about camera mentioned on that thread on xda.

    To be honest it might be worth waiting for the official version.

    Also I have full flash and apps2SD installed already.
