Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

@cheve, I believe you will need 1.1 to update to PR1.2 over the air.

Or you can reflash your device to 1.2 directly. I'm planning on doing that since my rootfs is getting hammered in space (around 40 MB free) and with the QT 4.6 change I don't know how that's going work since I already have QT 4.6 installed to /opt.

Seems like Nokia doesn't care about brainstorm, the map application doesn't improve in the next release (at least in that user manual there are no changes).

Has there been any official word on why the UK was skipped when the last firmware update got released? I'd rather not have to reflash with the worldwide fw but seems like Nokia have left us brits behind. :( If they do the same for thr PR1.2 update they will have a lot of annoyed customers over here!

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

i work as a seller of mobile phones and today i had a visit of our represantative of nokia and i asked her if ovi maps was coming to n900 and she said that the chance was really small. their main goal at the moment is releasing a huge new phone with symbian in the n-series. but that was the only thing they got to know. the rest was a big secret.

i hope she is wrong but i'm expecting the worse for ovi maps on n900

i doubt she knows all the ins and outs of nokia, carphone ware house get sales rep from nokia now and then and most of the time they have no idea of what handsets can do or how to use them properly....:rolleyes:

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

My though is that Nokia should be porting Ovi Maps to Qt for use on all their devices so if not on PR1.2, but in a not so distant future, we are going to have a complete Ovi Maps on N900
