Anyone got the 2.1 update yet? I downloaded the update package from motorola instead of waiting for the OTA update and it left the phone stuck in bootloader mode. I had to re-flash a 2.01 rom and perform the 2.1 upgrade again (Motorola support suggested sending it to a service centre in the UK)

So, theres not a lot in this upgrade,
animated wallpaper (yawn)
voice dialer (not as good as MS Voice commander)
5 home screens but based on the old home screen not the new funky launcher
Beta googlemaps navigation but for US addresses only, it just exits as soon as the GPS fix tells it it is outside the US.
Updated camera app
No speech to text - this was mentioned in the release notes but apparently it's only enabled in selected english speaking countries.
No improvement of the defficient cut/paste and email apps
Two of those are addressable...

However I really reccommend getting hold of Copilot Live 8, it's awesome...
