HTC’s Froyo OTA for EVO floating around

I’ve heard several reports from DroidDog readers (and it’s all over the Internet right now) that many EVO owners who tap on Settings > System Updates > Firmware Update are prompted to install the official Froyo bump, 3.26.651.6. Alas, I was one of those anxious chaps with ants in my pants that opted for an early install of an unofficial release (without actually understanding the situation). When I look for an update, I find only melancholy and solitude.

What about you all? We would love to hear reports from those who have updated. How goes it? Leave us a comment.

    What will this update do.. I was pumped about it b4 because I thought I was going to be able to tether but they took it away so what will it do now besides the flashlight app and app sharing?

    you actually goto setting>system updates> HTC software updates and not the firmware update, but it's simply amazing, everything is smooth and fast. The new widgets are awesome, and alot if not all the new features are amazing, really digging the new texting additions

    Downloaded last night. The only feature that is not working for me is apps2sd. @ settings>applications>manage applications>Selecting Desired App, the Move to SD card is disabled. Is any one else having this problem?
