hey does anyone know if we have a reset button or menu option?
if you power off your phone and hold the home (shaped like a house) and the end (red hangup button) for about 20 seconds you get a triangle with an exclamation point and a picture of the G1
after that if you open your keyboard and hold alt+L you'll get a menu that says:
Android system recovery utility E: Can't open /cach/recover/command
Home+Back reboot system now - (Soft Reboot)
Alt+L - Toggle log text display - (Toggles between the exclamation and menu options)
Alt+S - apply sdcard:update.zip - (Not brave enough yet)
Alt+W - Wipe data/factory reset - (What I chose, had to re-register, out of the box settings)

Maybe the Alt+S is the way that we will be able to do manual updates in the future. Download the update.zip file to the SD card and run it from this subsystem. Can someone please confirm this? It is a huge determining factor in whether or not I keep my G1.

There is a menu options under settings>SD card & phone settings...equivalent to Alt+W.
Useful for when things frag out like the darned SD card, but the button options are much better.
