Very interesting!

Was this written directly by T-Mobile, or by someone outside of T-Mobile?

[jibi]

from TMO, yes - not a third party observer.

And, oh my lord, the do seem to have fixed the annoying "BLEEP" sound that would occur before playing back an audible notification. I'm a little suspicious of the fix... when scrolling through the notifications in the Profiles applet, it seems like some of them just opt not to play. I hope that doesn't happen when a real message comes in. Will wait and see.

Here's another issue that happened to me today. While I was in a call (with bluetooth headset), my call was dropped when an email came in. Anybody else experience this?
