It seems one of the more controversial topics in the past months maybe be laid to rest tomorrow. Verizon has finally opened up the support page and announced availability for the long awaited Fascinate Froyo update. An update was inevitable after Samsung released the source code last week. Fascinate owners can expect a slew of new enhancements and features along with the usual VZW app pack.

- Enhanced browser performance for faster loading of webpages that include JavaScript.
- Search the web via Bingâ„¢ Voice Search without interruption.
Email and Messaging
- Move messages between folders in the Exchange email client with ease.
- Easily delete all messages in your sent and trash folders within your Exchange email account without being prompted to close the application.
- When using the Swype® feature, sentences are now displayed with the proper use of upper and lower case letters.
Call Features
- “Dialed Calls†correctly displays within the dialer application.
- When connected to a Bluetooth® device, pressing the speaker button will properly activate the speakerphone.
- Turning on the backlight when the phone is mounted in the car dock will no longer automatically activate the speakerphone.
- Improvements to the Voice Commands application allows you to accurately search contacts by name and number, even when the Contact List contains duplicates.
Additional Device Features
- Color and text scheme in the Calendar has been improved for better readability.
- “Feeds and Updates†widget improvements for auto-refresh feature.
