Well, I believe it was said to come out by 25th by Nokia.

I would expect:
- Minor bug fixes
- Minor performance optimizations
- Portrait mode on the browser

Any other new features / enhancements are a bonus.

All dates from nokia are completely useless. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see that fw update until mid late Q2 2010, though the date Nokia gave was before christmas 2009 lol.

I know these, but I'm not sure...
  • MMS
  • Portrait mode
  • FM radio official

And it should be published on turn of the year. Am I right?

No, you are not. No idea who told you about MMS or FM radio official. (Why are people keen on official if inofficial works week?!)

More apps? What for? And which ones do you need?

I hope they add complete portrait support (not just browser). Even if it's just basic functionality, it is sometimes much more convenient to operate it in portrait mode.

YOu can look at the bugtacker, there are quitmalot of fixed bugs there that havent yet made it to live fw.

Apps are made by 3rd party developera "d not nokia. Hulu and other heavier flash video ight start working when and if flash 10.1 is ported to the N900 sometime in the first half of next year.

The only "official" fixes for the N900 that have been released are in the bugtracker. Everything else is rumours.

I know that portrait mode for the media player is in the pipeline (may not be included in the next firmware), don't expect it everywhere else in the short term.
The main focus will remain in fixing bugs, all "nice to have" improvements will follow later.
