Phonescoop says that Samsung Mobile emailed it, with the following missive:
"No. Samsung is not charging carriers for Froyo updates to Galaxy S. We hope to have more detail on status shortly. Promise!"Many other phones have received Froyo updates, so it is unclear why there is a holdup on Samsung's. So far, rumors have flown about fried internal storage with the update, Samsung holding it back (specifically on the Vibrant) because of the upcoming Vibrant 4G Plus, and more. There has even been some saber-rattling at XDA about possible class-action lawsuits.
A public update on the matter would be a great idea, Samsung. Issuing a press release with public details on Froyo, or perhaps even Gingerbread, on the Captivate, Fascinate, Vibrant, Epic 4G, and Mesmerize in the U.S. markets would probably reduce the upset.
