Default OTA - what exactly does the new one offer??

I haven't received the current OTAU update yet.

But can someone explain what exactly it changes on the device?

TMO's 10/31 update simply states: "all Catalog application data will now be more securely backed up in the Microsoft / Danger systems."

Their statement doesn't seem to take into account that I'm *missing* application data. What good is it to offer more secure back up when I have little to back up? Nearly a week ago TMO reps basically claimed the upcoming OTA would bring back my bookmarks and solve all my other data troubles. Was this a lie?

Is there an email or page that outlines exactly what the OTA does and/or how it helps with the data problem that has been happening for over a month now?

Well I got the update today and I haven't noticed anything different on my phone, still no applications nor catalog. Who knows when we'll be getting all our stuff back!

And you won't see a difference. The OTA was just to stabilize the back end or something along those lines. I wish they'd send an email explaining the OTA like they usually do.
