Great news everyone, Sprint has finally released this update, here is the lowdown:

Version: BK14
Delivery: OTA
Release Date: 11/19 (BOTH client & network initiated)

Notes: Instinct firmware BK14 includes the resolution of 189 tickets open since the previous public firmware release, BH29, including:

5442 – links fail on smoking gun website
5872 – VVM Client is not able to make Data connection

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.

So be ready for some updates on Apps that now work on the Instinct, and how to get them

I know that most of my viewers are either close friends or family. So, I figure, since the site is now up and running well, I will let you know how I am doing.

I have moved to Montrose, Mi. A very boring area…hahaha…I am in the middle of Montrose, Clio, and Birch Run. It’s a nice little area. I live with my cousin, and that’s it. We are both preparing to go to Baker College, in Flint. I had originally planned on going to Ferris State, but was unable to, because of money problems. Sucks, but it is the truth.

I am pretty nervous. I am *almost* out of money, and still have not found a job. I do have a interview at the McDonald’s of Montrose…I don’t want to work there, but I need the job very badly. So I figure a few months, maybe a year there, I will keep applying at better places, and maybe get a better job.

I have been spending ALOT of my free time on the couch…I wasn’t able to do that at all during the greater part of the summer, and while I am not cleaning, applying for jobs, and such, I watch Anime. Watched the whole thing of Death Note…Very good. Might give a review in the future. And I am now catching up on Bleach. I believe I am on Episode 136…Might be one ahead or back…not sure of the exact number.

Well, I believe that is all. I will try to be active…specially since I have some free time, without a job and classes.
