i just hope they dont wait to long. the device is set for end of life for august or september. the new ovi map agreement is now for phones that are just new. nothing is said for older phones so what with the n900 and when the update wont come before this date

page 58 to 60 of the manual explains how internet-calls work (includes sending video)

also, on page 81 you can see "audio recording" in video-mode. so you can record without sound.

Similarly to what happened to Maemo5, Meego probably is not going to be on par with Maemo 5 feature wise until next year so I wouldn't kill Maemo 5 so early.

No sooner do I post about the UK not getting the PR1.1.1 update Nokia make me look silly and roll out the update! Woo! Could this be a sign the PR1.2 update is imminent...

A Nokia employee did mention at the Ovi maps blog that they were working on it. But it could well be they are holding it back to give Sygic a chance to sell some of their software, after the Ovi store problem. Pure speculation, but if I were Sygic I would insist on that, and if I were Nokia (and the Ovi Store deal with Sygic was indeed the reason for the delay) I would give it to them.

Well, let's hope that the UK release is just a prelude of PR1.2

Althought I belive that it will hit market just in late April :(

N900 is said to be released in early April in Australia.
It's already appearing in major retailer's websites.
My speculation is that PR1.2 is already finalized / ready.
And new release batches will be on PR1.2 out of the box.
If so, PR1.2 should be available by end of the month. :D

no, seems like there are other things to be done that are considered more important
