Really? For me not.
Do you use POP3 or IMAP ?
For POP3 it works for me... for IMAP not.

just done the upgrade, even left the tablet hooked to the mains charger...
reboot , all fine except from some standard applets re-enabled but that not a issue.

What is special in the Nokia cable that is missing from the DX copy? Anyone have a clue?
Bought 3 DX cables, only two work.

I skeptically updated last night, and voila, i am now running 2008.36-5 on my N800. Update went without any issue. My only annoyance so far is that the RSS feed applet still doesn't update as it did under Chinook. Browser speed increase? Not sure I see what others, including Texrat have reported - my GMail still loads the AJAX site in about 30 seconds - no different than before.

Nope, mine still randomly silently crashes and I have to reboot the device to open the program and check my mail. I just LOVE that! The main reason I bought this unit is to keep tabs on my e-mail. It worked pre-diablo flawlessly, and now, even after two useless updates later doesn't. Oh yea, I keep forgetting, we're talking about software developers (oops, EXCUSE ME, "engineers") here. Perhaps by Christmas, 2010

It would be interesting to have a site poll under this subject regarding the success or failure rate of this (or any) software update.

If the poll software used by ITT would allow followup questions on what potential "unofficial troublemakers" (e.g. the usual clonings and bootmanagers etc. plus a few apps like Mapper and OMweather with some history of issues) have been installed, it might help the Maemo and Nokia folks figure out if something could be done to make the "Seamless" Software Updates smoother yet.

Also, wouldn't it be practical to expose these large "SSU" bundles to the larger non-Nokia developer community at least a few days prior to their official release? That way some third party packages could be also updated for compatibility with the "SSU"?

Personally I find cloning to SD and using boot menu to be extremely useful and productive third party enhancements, but I'm resigned to having to give up the "Seamlessness" in Software Updates in order to be able to enjoy that (booting and speed) flexibility. Yet this now common SSU procedure could be a little less worrysome.

If you haven't already, you might try opening X Terminal and entering "killall modest" instead of rebooting.

Again, curse that preinstalled documentation!
I got this one, too. It won't reboot on it's own. Apparently this breakage pretty early on so your (dual/SD booting) initfs is still there, so you should be able boot your other maemo/Debian/whatever. You DO have dual boot, right ? :) I'll check later if this is salvageable or if it's simpler just to reflash/restore.

I got the notification in Application Mangler about the new upgrade yesterday. When I clicked it to start the upgrade, I got an error saying it couldn't continue because libsofia-sip-ua-0osso5 was needed. I was already in red-pill, so I checked installed packages and it was in fact installed. However, I thought, I'll just reinstall it. I exited Mangler, dropped to a terminal and became root. Then I did an 'apt-get install libsofia-sip-ua'. apt-get came back with a huge list of files to be upgraded. It was, in fact, the same files that were part of the OS2008 update. Cool. I let it upgrade. After all was said and done, all of those files updated my N800. However, every time I go into Application Mangler it still says I need to update OS2008, but it won't let me. Control Panel -> About product says I'm still at 4.2008.30-2, so I guess the upgrade isn't there, yet.

Must be time to reflash....again.
