Re: Firmware update not on Nokia U.S. site
 

Greetings:

So this means that a company doesn't care if all N800 users in USA/Canada can't use their tablet devices.
Well somebody is scoring big points here.

US citizens can download safely the image from the European site.

It doesn't matter from which country or website you are clicking the link to download the latest image because all of them point to http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N800.php

Take this answer as official, since I'm Nokia employee, member of the maemo team and I am involved in the launch of this release.

Of course. Submitting reports to http://bugs.maemo.org with as much details as possible (including the upgrade itself) will help figuring out the issues.

Many of the problems reported are not easy to reproduce and might be linked to specific configurations / applications installed. I can only recommend what thoughtfix and others are saying: if you are having problems make a fresh install and play with the device to see if you get the same issues.

Hi all,
Here is my 2 cents worth... My guess is you got a lvl 1 tech support person who is basically reading from a script, or has "preprogrammed" answers in his head. Also, the people you talked to most likely are really only cell phone support type people - which I could see why in the case of cell phones you most likely would not want to use a euro flash...

But, as many others have said, the flash works very well - just do it as a fresh load and you should be fine (worked great on both of mine).

Yay new stuff!
