webOS 1.03 Update Available OTA Right Now

We don't know just what it's going to give you, but we do know that you may as well get yourself to some sweet WiFi (or not, if you're EVDO's good, thanks ebernal718!) and install the 1.03 update for the webOS from your Updates app (It'll be mandatory to update eventually anyway).

It's 13 megs of goodness, though, and our forum members are on it and reporting speed and signal strength improvements -- though that often happens during the heady minutes after a new update as people are still the glow of the newness. If nothing else, it does appear clear that several apps from the browser to backup to mail are being touched.

One thing's for sure - the days of Palm not issuing updates for their devices may indeed be well and truly over. It's magical. Let us know - anything seem new or better for you after the update?

Thanks to everybody who sent this in!

Update: pavvento makes with the details from Palm's official doc on 1.03:

Calendar

Events created in your Google calendar—either in Calendar on your phone or in Google online—that contain a symbol or accented character in the event name can now synchronize. Previously, including a symbol or accented character in an event name prevented the event from synchronizing.Changes made to Google events on the phone now sync with Google online within a few minutes.The sync interval for Google events has been decreased from every few hours to every 15 minutes.

Clock

If you create a weekday alarm on a weekend, the alarm sounds only on weekdays. Previously the alarm would sound on the weekend also.

Contacts

Changes made to Google contacts on the phone now sync with Google online within a few minutes.The sync interval for Google contacts has been decreased from every few hours to every 15 minutes.

Email

Power performance in areas where wireless coverage is sporadic or unavailable has been enhanced.Non-SSL Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) mail servers are now supported.

Other

Miscellaneous updates for Email, Phone, and other applications.

Update 2: Greg (and others in our forums) are reporting that Classic has ceased to function after the update -- though others are saying it's working fine.  If you're depending on Classic for something, you might want to hold off just a bit before you pull the trigger on this one.
