I'm convinced Moto just can't stand doing things right for very long. How is the average user supposed to figure out if they should even try this or if they need it? :roll:

The weird thing is that there is no announcement and the web page does not provide any date/version information. I agree Jerry, how is the user supposed to know that there is something new to update. :roll:

Would be nice if they sent us a press release. We've got the "Submit News" page all setup just for this reason.

All I can see is while HTC and Samsung are busy cranking out new devices at an amazing pace, Moto will be busy dipping their once decent and aging Smartphone into different colors. What happened Moto? Did the possibility of success make you tired? Do you ache for the MPx220 days?

I learned about Motorola's peculiarities with my original analog flip-phone years ago: when I'm using one of their products I check their web pages for changes every week.

A month ago I sent Moto an email asking how to tell the revision of their then posted software. To their credit, they answered promptly with the version of the available package, for me to compare with my Q, and this time around they added a version number to the filename...

I think they just need to hire a senior director for the advancement of corporate common sense

I like the idea and the title for the guy they hire - "Senior Director for Common Sense" :lol:

I still stunned at the fact that Motorola released the updated software along with the Black Q. Moto and Verizon didn't greedy. That is so unlike Verizon and Moto. :? It has to be the holiday effect.
