This is interesting - I hadn't seen this before. Is this another reason for getting the 6131 over the SunCom or Fido versions of the 6126? Looks like with the 6131 you can get the real Nokia update rather than it being filtered through some carrier.
Wirelessly posted (Walkguru's: LG-CU500 Obigo/WAP2.0 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 UP.Link/6.3.0.0.0) It sure sounds like it. I think i would rather have it because of the radio and mem card.
