I just got back from selling my i760. I have officially left the realm of Windows Mobile (ok, not really – I still have my old Moto Q, but I no longer have a Verizon account). The 6.1 upgrade seemed nice, too, although I did not really play with out much.
Onwards and upwards!

I had previously posted how to find the MAC address on the i760 running WM6. With the official release of WM 6.1, the code has changed. You now need to enter #43574357*.

Update: It’s now officially official.
It’s now (semi?) official – you can upgrade your i760 to WM 6.1. I haven’t tried it yet, but I’ll give it a go tomorrow. You can find the directions on Samsung’s website. Here are direct links to the updater.
It sounds like you need to use the original cable (i.e., don’t use a sync/charge cable) and plug it DIRECTLY into the PC (i.e., not into a hub).
Also, there might be an issue with setting up Gmail, although there is a workaround:

UPDATE: Now it’s clear that the card is bad. Off to BB (again!).
UPDATE: Looks like it’s the card reader, too. Ugh – off to BB in the morning.
I got a 4GB microSDHC card for my i760 for Christmas, and getting it working has been a bit of a pain. First, you need a hacked driver to get it working on the i760. However, you also need a hotfix to get it working in Windows XP! To make it worse, MS won’t just “give” you the hotfix – you have to request it. However, there is an alternative! See below…

Following up on this post, I purchased the Pocket Solutions HD Screen Protectors. They are not the crystal clear kind, but, rather the anti-glare kind.
The first set I received was not cut properly. After my second support request (the first received no response), Pocket Solutions sent me a replacement set at no cost. These fit better, but there is about a 1/32″ gap on one side. I’m not sure anything can be done about that, though, since the screen on the i760 is recessed.
It has worked well so far – no smudges, fairly readable outdoors, and no scratches.

Pocket Solution has the first offering I’ve seen for a sync/charge cable. Of course, it’s just a ZX20 cable…
