    I tried the update enhancement pack from the market but still getting a message saying you are up to date. Frustrated.

    sorry to hear it,i know the feelings !!
    my best guess is that they are pushing updates OTA randomly for various servers,locations,times.
    Me,just got lucky by been on the right ... spot !?
    just wait with patience or keep trying that app !

    When you say the app how were you checking for updates? I downloaded the enhancement pack but there is no app to run? I have just been checking through the system settings.

    Install the app then check for updates again from within the Settings ,not from /with the application itself !
    Good luck...

    Got the update yesterday. Took a long time to download. Dont notice much difference to be honest. The keyboard is definitely much more responsive and i think the battery is better on standby but need to play around more with it.

    Just managed to get my GPS fixed...takes max 30 seconds in house to get a full 3D fix.
    Playing with CoPilot and Navigon,not sure which one is ...better !

    How is your tablet' GPS working !??
