PinStack Week in Review: NEW Device Updates, Downloads and MORE!

I honestly thought this week would never come (or end for that matter ... its been a long week). The "official" release date for the AT&T Bold was Tuesday, November 4th, but I know that some of you were lucky enough to find some in stock at your local corporate stores or dealers over the weekend. Did you give in to the hype? Were you a lucky one? Rumors afloat that the stores are actually running out... Check out the Bold Device forum for some great reviews, new discoveries, and some plain old sharing of knowledge to get you up to date on your new Bold.

PeeKaWho v1.164 - with PeeKaLab (think Google Lab)
PeekaWho issued a handful of updates this week on their very popular pop-up alert application.
What's NEW:
- PeeKaLab (think Google Lab), we have added a "Flashlight" features within a new screen call PeeKaLab. Try it out. Will rename to PeeKaLight if people like it
- Grouped LED function into the PeeKaLab screen
- Email/SMS LED will come on with each single email.
- Fixed activation bug (no need to reactivate so long as you don't do a device upgrade). With each upgrade after this, no need to reenter code.

Great review as always. I got my bold on the 3rd and I actually am impressed by it. It is the phone I was waiting for and more.

What about 4.5 OS for ATT users? I have 8310 and have been waiting forever!!! I would think that having the #G with the BOLD now out from ATT that other OS would be updated as well. Anybody got any thoughts on this?
