I've noticed you talking with timeless about this bug on IRC a little while ago. I wanted to tell you that I did NOT restore a backup after reflashing.

My bad, I wasn't reading the actual DATE on the comment in the bug (19 JUL 07).
Boy, don't I feel like a dumbass now. ;)
So...looks like there WON'T be an update this Friday.
But with those two being two of the more noticeable bugs, I hope they push one out soon with them squashed.
You have to admit though, this type of open beta testing is helping them find bugs a hell of a lot faster than internal testing usually does.

I should have probably checked this before I installed it, but does anyone know what the improvements are included in the update to the Mozilla browser? I have seen it in my update manager for a few days now, but today it finally installed. I don't see any real changes in the UI, but maybe there is something that I have missed? Any input would be appreciated.

Go back a page or two where I list the bugs that were fixed.

Woo-hoo, they fixed my bugs.

I don't see mine addressed (having to click inside text boxes twice to get virtual keyboard to come up). Ah well. It's still beta! And I'm glad anyway to see updates. :)

I can confirm that this bug is fixed (at least for GMail). I am pretty happy with this update's performance too. It works really well so far.

I am also happy that the first beta release wasn't the only one. Nokia seems to be finally "getting it" with respect to open source development and the "release early, release often" methodology.

Kudos to the MicroB and RTComm (since they had another beta release that improved things a lot too) teams!

Yea, it a good fix. It did crash once, I dont know why I think it was zooming in but the fix list shows that it was fixed so it could be something else. But crashing once in a few days is acceptable to me compared to what it was doing.

Definitely seems to be operating better, I have been using the MicroB browser exclusively (instead of Opera and switching engines) and I think this is really good. Only had one crash since the update compared to a crash every browsing session before.
