Telstra (Australian Carrier) has confirm that Nokia are expected to provide the GDR2 update for testing in mid May and they have also previously advised that testing does not normally take longer than 2 weeks provided no issues are identfiied, it then takes up to 10 business days for Nokia/MSFT to push out the update to the phones once the testing has been signed off by the carrier. Based on this I was hoping we would see the update around mid June.

I'm with Optus but Telstra traditionally get updates out very quickly and I'm hoping Optus follow suit. I just left Vodafone coz they are pathetic. I'm STILL waiting for 1308 lol or is it now 1314???

The "improves the accuracy of song info and other metadata" part scares me a bit - don't they realize that we don't need any improved metadata forced by MS on our beloved music collection, we need improved metadata options?

I believe what that refers to is the deletion of duplicate entries for the same song

I hope so...
Anyway, the Xbox Music experience IMHO brings a very bad light on the MS updates policies.
Xbox Music is an app, like many other apps, and most likely the fix for its issues is ready since a while, but we still have to wait with a phone where playing music is almost impossible, because it must be released together with an OS upgrade.
If they actually left some more access to the developer on the data on the microSD, by this time we would probably have a third party app to play music and another one doing wireless sync.
They didn't do that, so MS has to implement themselves all the fixes, and it is doing it with an extremely slow pace.
This is acceptable for new features, NOT for bug fixes of this entity.

Well, caldev and cardev are both slated for release in this update, which will help immensely with anyone who needs to work with Google hosted calendars.

Actually, it's worse than that. June is now the earliest possible date. Depending on your device, country and carrier, it could be much later.

I'll probably have to wait 2-3 months to get GDR2.
