Lumia 900 data connectivity fix available now

As you know, a handful of Nokia Lumia 900s experienced data connectivity issues. Nokia promised an update would be available by April 16th and offered a $100 rebate to everyone that purchased the phone before April 21st as a gesture of goodwill. Those affected have the option to swap their phone out with a new device or wait for the software update.

If you’re among those who are holding on waiting for the software update, we have good news for you tonight. Nokia has announced that the software update is available now – a full 3 days early.

You can simply access the update through Zune or Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac right now.

If this was apple problem, they will still denied and after 6-7 weeks they will told that they had a problem, AND after 4 weeks they will push the update. But Nokia is different story - Connecting People

Difference between Apple and Nokia ( WP7 ) is that people line up to buy iphone 4 and for Nokia, give it for free. Apple don't worry about their market but Nokia sure is. Nokia also have to update fast because of their ad ( beta tester ) not to backfire.

Those affected got $100 and a replacement phone, you're still sitting with your same iPhone and zero compensation (Antennagate, anyone?). It really is time people got off Apple's d***

If this was an Android problem, nothing would be done by anybody.

Most people don't have time to hack their phones to make them work.
