New Update for Atrix on Telstra - already have Gingerbread

Hi everyone,

I'm already running Gingerbread (2.3.4) on my Atrix on Telstra Australia.
Today, I've been notified of a new update, roughly 40MB.
This is too small to be an OS upgrade, and as I said I already have Gingerbread, so does anyone know what this is?
I've checked Telstra's and Motorola's websites, can't find anything and I don't want to lose root access.

It's possible that you guys are getting the bump to 2.3.5 (The Current Atrix Build is 2.3.4).

That's what the Atrix 2 runs. It's just a maintenance release.
No. Version 2.3.5 is a maintenance update.

From Android.com:

I must admit I hadn't tried calling them, but that was because I thought I'd stand a better chance of getting an answer elsewhere.
Anyway, for anyone else who's had the notification, I took the plunge and here's what happened.
After installing the update, I'm still on 2.3.4 but it says the system version was upgraded to 45.31.0.en.AU (I'm not sure what it was before that).
The upgrade did cause me to lose root access, although I had it back again 10 minutes later. I used Pete's Motorola Root Tools which I what I originally used after the upgrade from 2.2.2 to 2.3.4.
I don't know what this is meant to have done, and I was only a small upgrade, but I've had no problems as getting root back was easy.
