One of my major problems was with the email, which was horrible with that HTML reader that came with it. I am currently using empower with my 4.3 system, can this also be my default email viewer in 4.5, or do I have to take that horrible reader they give you?
Thank You,

I avoided the first couple of beta 4.5 OS versions because many people had reported problems. I started with 4.5.0.56 because it was an official release, and I wasn't disappointed. Since then I have gone to .66, and now I'm using .77, all on my Alltel 8330. I haven't had any issues with them, only improvements along the way.
I suggest that you find a copy of 4.5.0.66 or .77 and try it out again. If it doesn't work out then you can always go back to your previous OS.
Also, I'm still using Empower, even though the native email viewer is vastly improved over the 4.3 and the earlier 4.5 versions, and it really is quite usable. Empower has a couple of nice features that I like, and I did pay for it after all.
