Same here but only started out with 2.1 as I've only had the phone for about a month so don't know what any previous firmware was like.

Re: 2.2 fw to be released 21 Nov?

same here, but i also find that if i load on more than 9 apps then about once a week when syncing the apps will just stop working i.e the icon is there but as soon as you start it up it just blanks out and goes back to the home screen?? Very annoyiing as resynicing doesn't load then on and I have to delete then and re-download then from the app store.

Just download another app and start it then the others will work too.
Safari crashes on me 4-5 times a day.

I hope this is out tomorrow and a fix for Safari is included as it's becoming unusable for me.I can only browse about 4-5 mins then it slows right down and crashes

Just connect your iphone to your PC/Mac and iTunes will tell you that there is an update.

Yeah, don`t update through itunes, wait for Quickpwn to update to 2.2. From experience it usually doesn`t take too long.
