The release also provides the foundation for the first public release of the updated Sprint Mobile Email Work Calendar. The new work calendar, available OTA 12/4, syncs with one or more Exchange (OWA) based calendars, and allows for meeting creation, editing and alerting on the go.

Also included in MR4:
* Java refit to better enable 4-way/OK and text input to LCDUI widget-based applications
* support for native document viewing for many popular office document types including .doc, .pdf, .ppt, .xls and others (requires Sprint Mobile Email Work upgrade expected 12/4)

Individual application upgrades for the MR4 period are expected to go live the week of 11/21, with Sprint Mobile Email Work Calendar scheduled for early December (all dates are estimates and are subject to change with no notice). Exact go-live dates depend on application vendor.
