The update was successful but I noticed one problem; my mobile internet didn’t connect any more. I found out that I had to add (or delete and add new) APN carrier settings in: Settings → Wireless & networks → Mobile networks → Access Point Names.

For a list of settings of Dutch and Belgium mobile network operators see this page.

To access this menu open the dialer and dial:

*#*#INFO#*#*

In numbers:

*#*#4636#*#*

I have tested this on my HTC Desire (Android 2.1 and 2.2) and in an emulator (Android 2.1). The following screen is shown:

In Phone Information you can see some information about the phone, current network and data connection (modify settings or pressing buttons is at your own risk!):

For more information about these settings and other menu items see this post.

Update August 15 2010:

In Android 2.2 the service menu is extended with Wifi information.
