I took the plunge and did the SD Card update, my build number says:

kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC29 115247 ota-rel-keys,release-keys

What does yours say if you have the OTA update?

I'm worried that I might be blocked from future updates...

Your good man ... the update that you did was a direct download. You should have what everyone else got during the OTA

no reason why it should be different, the zip file u got was the same one google sent the ota phones.

Thanks for the replies, I was curious, I've heard of some getting a test release with the sd update, that's why I'm trying compare the build numbers floating around.

And for the New Yorkers in the crowd there was a 3G service outage earlier today, so if it just happened to sd update during it, you may have been a bit distressed....as I was.

I did the update via sd card too. The build number is same as OTA update. On a side note, I think tmobile should allow direct download of firmware updates rather than just OTA. It would save a lot of overheads for tmobile cell towers and it would please all the impatient G1ers out there (including me)

Seeing how both OTA and SD card updates are the same, has anyone noticed any differences with the update? I did mine via SD card (impatient) and I haven't noticed some of the said fixes. One in particular with the built in email app for POP3 or IMAP accounts.

I'm still noticing the same bugs. Whenever I open an email and back out of the app and go back in, the message I just read is marked as unread and is counted as a new email. Also it is still not notifying at the top for new email with the POP3 accounts. Anyone else having the same issues after the update?

Im in Charlotte, NC and still haven't gotten the OTA update. I know it doesn't change much but damn for some reason im just itching to get it. I really dont want to do the SD update, i mean im pretty tech savy and all im just nervous that with my luck ill screw something up and brick my g. We don't have 3g in charlotte yet either. But i do find the edge is plenty fast for surfing/youtube
