Since the OTA is imminent I would suggest you just staying where you are at.

Well, if people are like me then they didn't realize how long it would take once the okay was given. We have to wait for Atrix, we have to wait for the soak (hopefully not), and then possibly three more weeks.... six weeks seems like a lot longer than hoping it'll pop-up any day now

Did .246 have a zip file that could be flashed via stock recovery without using HoB?

Yes, but it's not openly mentioned here you can Google it and find it. That's how I did mine since I waiting until the end.

Not that I don't want to use Sam's awesome work, but I'm at work currently and feel like making the jump from .905 and hoping we can get back on the OTA path lol. I can't install the multiple components for HoB on my work laptop

Exactly, a bunch of "tablets"

You act like a half inch is a big deal. Are you also aware that the bezels of today's phone are getting smaller, for example you could have a 4.7 inch screen in the same footprint that an older phone that had a 4.3 inch screen made.

maybe it is a big deal to him. not everyone one likes phablets.

Well sure but that isnt my point. If you can have a larger screen in the same footprint you are already used to, why not? I dont see the logic in having a big bezel if its not needed, fill that space with usable screen!

I just hope I get it early in the cycle. I'm impatient like that.

Usually when the update starts to push out like this - that someone almost ALWAYS grabs that update file and posts it where everyone can get it themselves. So, if you're vigilant and keep checking this forum, or your favorite Android news site, you'll get it the first day! With rare exceptions I have always grabbed it myself and installed it before waiting for the update notice to hit my phone naturally.

God willing it's 3 weeks max. It is nice to know that cavalry is coming!

why not? because again, not everyone likes/wants/needs a larger screen.

because its needless plastic bezel, pointless.

The bionic has a titanium nitrided pot metal bezel. Reason the penny trick works. ( cue "penny trick" questions)
