That link then takes you to a Virgin Mobile detailing the update. In addition to all the Froyo goodness, you'll be getitng:

• Exchange Active Sync updates
• ability to install applications to external memory card
• improved Bluetooth device support
• Bluetooth Voice dialing

Boo!!

I mean, boo to Verizon Wireless, who is still leaving unrooted Samsung Fascinate users out in the cold w/ no Froyo. (Yeah, I know no one wants to eat froyo when it's cold.)

Yay for Virgin Mobile Intercept users!
