Maybe it doesn't, though. Perhaps this is why the Atrix 2 ended up going ahead of us. Maybe this is all a plan to minimize the amount of pre-JB patches.
Let's just hope they get it out there asap. At this point people are just *DONE* waiting for OTA. Yes, it's a good thing they did this. But, they gotta make the delay MINIMAL or it'll be seen as completely negative.
