Default XDA II ROM Update Released

http://www.xda-2.co.uk/downloads/xda2_upgrade.html

A ROM update for the O2 version of the XDA II has been released. Improvements include:
  • Incorporates Service Pack 1 from Microsoft
  • Java Midlet Manager
  • A new version of Photo Contacts Caller ID
  • Updates to support O2 Active and O2 Video Downloads
  • Updated of Bluetooth Manager, with better support for Headset and Serial Port profiles
  • Less tasks active at device startup
  • New version of O2 Active
I'm assuming this only works (and/or should only be used) with the O2 version. I'll be curious to see if Carrier Devices and other OEMs release updates as well in the near future.

This I believe brings O2 up to par with iMate and T-Mo who have previously released updates. T-Mo have posted two, and I have heard reports that iMate are working on another now.

....btw, it's a beautiful day here in Seattle.

The i-Mate is already 1.60 for a long time but 1.66 is already in the pipe. :-) Have it here and it contains some serious improvements! To be released soon and announced on PPCW.Net - as always... ;-)

BTW, it's really a beautiful weather here in Seattle, now Wi-Fi connected in my hotel room with my brand new Wi-Fi G router... ;-)
