How long did you end up having to wait (rough estimate)? I have been trying this all day and I can get into the pda emergency mode just fine but then I get the same error...

Found PDA
Eboot version ok, then
Phone Download Start

And it never gets past this. I am still trying but I figured that I would ask while doing so what the rough time frame is on completion of getting the software on. Also I am using the trickle charge USB cable and not the one on the docking station that ships with the phone, could this effect the outcome?

Thanks for any feedback while I watch my phone do... who knows.

P.S. It should show the radio version being used in the version ID correct?
