    Always better to wait a few days before applying patches. Patience is a virtue.

    Yeah not a good one when Microsoft are wanting to try and eat into Apples market share in smartphones, but then Apple are not immune to software update issues, I've had to over the last 3yrs reset my iphone 3G 5 times from failed updates, once having to take it in for the Apple Geniuses

    Some more info on this from the Windows Team on this HERE as its not seeming to affect all Windows 7 mobile phones, mainly Samsung,
