I will be very interested in whether the standard USB cable works. My store implied it takes some special type of harness, but I trust them less far than I can throw them.

OR with a sufficiently long cable, you could visit each of us and do the job while we dine.

I upgraded to XG23 with no problem at the Greece, NY (Rochester area) store, which provided their usual excellent service. Dropped it off at lunchtime, picked it up after work, restored from backup, and everything seems to be working well. They also did the usual diagnostic check and updated the PRL. It's too soon to say what the new software fixes, though. Time will tell.

Congrats!
You appear to be one of the few, the proud, the upgraded!
Spoke to my tech today. He claims he should have what he needs to upgrade me any day now. I am supposed to call him back on Friday. Funny thing is that someone else came into the store recently also asking about the upgrade. That must have been what lit a fire under him.
Keep your fingers crossed!

Do I need the upgrade?
I have not had any issues at all with my i500. I have the WF30 on my phone. Is there a reason I need to get the update??

Bad news: my USB sync cable did not work. He had to install the Samsung drivers, but for whatever reason, he was not able to get their firmware update program to talk to the phone. (He spent 45 minutes with a Sprint customer support, so he knows what this feels like, too).
He asked me for the address or phone number of any other Sprint store which has done an upgrade to XG23. He wants to call them and ask what cable they have and where they got it from.
i330? MickCole? Could you give me the store address you were upgraded at?
thanks.

Mine was upgraded at the SprintPCS store in Greece, NY. Their address is:
2100 W Ridge Road, 14626.
Telephone: (585) 453-1111.
I highly recommend them for anyone in the Rochester, NY, area--very friendly, courteous, and helpful.
They knew exactly what I was asking for, and were happy to take care of it for me.
