*Flame Phone Updates
**Two weeks ago our Flame partner shipped Firefox 2.0 for the Flame with an over-the-air-update.
**Large shipment of Flames arrived in MTV on Friday. If you've reached out to me with a request for a Flame or I've offered to send you one, expect to get a shipping notice in the next couple of days. If you're in MTV, you can swing by my desk to pick up your device. I will try to bring a batch to Portland for folks wanting to avoid shipping.
**As soon as we have our first Foxtrot builds (we're working with our Flame partner on this) I'll be flashing those to the 200 Foxtrot Flames and shipping those out.
