Exactly why I'm not running it just yet :P

Not that I ever turn my phone off.. Just don't wanna loose my apps.. Again.

You could use Titanium Backup to back up apps. It works well and links the apps to the market so you'll still be able to check updates etc.

It would be nice if you could backup settings as well, I don't like having to add wifi passwords all over again.

I was just about to ask if there was some kind of app to back up stuff. I knew there was one to back up apps, but do you know of anything that would back up scenes so that I don't have to reposition all the shortcuts and folders?

Unfortunately I don't think there is.

Just tried out the new ROM based on the Legend and I'm liking the small improvements HTC have made. The weather app isn't working for me and nor is street view on maps.

Doesn't work. Just like street view, it starts to load then abruptly goes back to the previous screen.

Damn, ah well, maybe it will work in the official version

Nav isn't supported officially outside of the US..
I do hope street view works though.. Just to pass the time..

That sucks, I was under the impression that it was.

It is on rooted phones via some modded files.. But, due to licences held by current Sat Nav providers, Google cannot currently penetrate the market :'(

Thats rubbish...

It could change of course.. Google has a lot of monies.

That is true. What exactly is the license that is preventing them from penetrating the market? Is it the fact that it would be free and bundled with the OS?

I really don't know specifics.
But I assume it's that fact that it's free and easy to access. It produces competition that is more or less impossible to beat.

Hmm, perhaps if that is the case then they could offer it for a small fee? I mean I don't know the specifics of the license but I wouldn't mind paying a small fee for google sat nav as opposed to the £50 or so that the other apps are going fot.

Oh yeah, so it does. I just tried it out. You have to select a point on the map and then select street view from the options listed. You can't just drag the yellow man like on the desktop version

You really aren't missing much :/

not really the point though. more a point of customer satisfaction, when you give a release date you tend to make it. Fair enough they need to do more testing and what not for the sense (as i've read) but then why not give a longer release date?
