No it's not... mine does it. Maybe you should check to make sure your system sounds isn't lower than you're used to. When I installed 1.2 it set my system sounds low so I had to manually raise the volume on them.
I thought so... That was the 1st thing I checked, being as Palm's release notes said that they raised the default ringtone level and lowered the notification sound during calls...
Me also - although it did let me fill in my credit card, etc (early in the evening) but as time went by I did manage to get in - no changes as of a few minutes ago except in the appearance. It is obvious they are getting it ready for paid apps.
Has anyone noticed that when it displays your account info (credit card info for the App Store)... it shows *### where ### is actually not the last three digits... but the first three digits of the last 4. For example, if my last 4 digits were 1230, it shows *123. Usually I would expect it to show up as *230 (showing the last three). I entered it twice since I thought I might have made a mistake.
So this morning i woke up to my phone on the touchstone charger telling me i was no longer signed into my palm profile and had to reboot. i did and it told me it still couldn't sign in and i could either reboot or wipe the phone! I tried rebooting, and now the pre acted like i just bought it and made me re-setup the phone. At least they backed up accounts, but what a PITA with no bookmarks saved, icon placement, settings, etc. WTG palm. can't wait to see if it does this to me again tonight.
Why is it that after every update, everyone talks about how much "snappier" the OS is? The OS is snappier b/c you rebooted it, not b/c of the update...give it a few days and it will be just a slow as it was before the update (not that it was that slow, but you get the idea). Until I quit seeing pages go blank when scrolling fast, I don't consider the update a speed increase.
An OS does not "have" to become slower with time. That is mostly a Windows things. OS X, Linux, UNIX, and other operating systems can be up for weeks/months, and in some cases even years without any significant slow down. WebOS is a brand new OS. There is no reason why tweaking and optimizing code can't result in better performance. People are saying it is snappier because that is what they are experiencing. A page going blank during fast scrolling is hardly the only determination of the performance of an OS.
Just completed download and all seems cool. No damn notification led, txt forwarding or visual voicemail- all sprint instinct items but ore is still working fine. One day when the world is perfect, I would like for Sprint to think about what's going well with one device and say 'hey we need to make sure it on another device similiar to this one, so ppl will be happier'. Ahh when the world becomes perfect until then we have an update that for many of us didn't mean a thing.
