Haha no I always keep an eye on this thread. Have not yet sold my 410, may gift it to my Dad if I am not able to sell in the next couple of weeks.
SGS2 is awesome, Android is growing on me. Took some time coming from 3GS but I think I can use it as my daily phone.

Sorry, i didn't make myself clear. I wanted to know whether we can use PC internet to download from PC version of the 'Android Market' instead of using the mobile data?
Also, i tried USB tethering using Vodafone but i get this error 797 (Modem not connected or busy). Can u pls tell me the steps for USB tethering?

Sometimes (usually very seldom) you will want to make a suid file. This is done by adding a "6" to the front of your number. chmod 6755 filename

It has to be copied on the phone partition which gets mounted which is named as FIH in my computer and there you will find a folder named "Image", go inside that folder, copy recovery.img from there to your computer (somewhere safe as a backup) and now copy the newly downloaded recovery.img in image folder on FIH partition, if it asks for overwrite then simply overwrite it. disconnect your phone, remove the battery and reboot
When you connect your phone to the PC in Download mode it should automatically mount the concerned partition(FIH?). You back up the existing recovery image and then overwrite it with the CWM image. I think that is all there is to it, SD Card doesn't come into the picture.

I don't have Wifi. I wanted to download from Android Market through USB using PC net.
I have created a dialer for Vodafone but it does not connect with the phone. Is there a different APN to be used for USB tethering? Which is ur service provider? I configured my APN manually as they did not send me any settings for this phone.

I'm using airtel and there are no different or additional settings for usb tethering, even I made the apn settings manually, try any other sim with correct apn settings

Disable your debugging mode and connect your phone to the computer, a drive will be loaded in my computer, you will have all your drivers there, myself using win 7 32 bit
so an extra useless post.updated with CSL 2.3.4 and rooted
Thanks to paarkhi, It is guys like him who take effort to share and inturn make life much easier for others.
For updating I used the SD Card method. Did not have to remove even the sim card. Took a little backup, but basically finished off in a few steps. Wiped the cache too.
rooted using the clockwork mod recovery. That also went smooth. as per the steps given. Remember to read the last line which is nearly a footnote.
CSL 2.3.4 is not much dramatic change in the RAM and running applications. I was irritated to see things like blueberry messenger and store. There was some S unno and Myriad UPnP server and remote.
system info app showed the following data for memory before and after the update
60 % used 142.8M available
57 % used 150.3 available
Removing the bloatware.
Somehow I dont know but have always not got the thing right in Titanium backup. When I rooted my Samsung mini sometime back got stuck with Titanuim. So I have gone for Root Uninstaller. Its working thought it has no yet removed the Blueberry messenger and the CSL funclub. I am being a little careful as to which app to remove.
Android market for the PC.
The only way to access is the webpage of android market through the browser. There also you can only send it to the handset, but cannot download it to the PC. Though it seems logical to have an itunes like setup to transfer apps. There are a few websites out there which allow you to download app to the PC. But thats about all.
There might be some plans in the future, but I have generally observed that android OS does not tie you down with anything in any aspect.
