google maps doesnt work right (no info in bubbles above red dots on map)

i got youtube to crash in the second video i opened

honestly youd think they would try the firmware out against popular sites for a while to make sure.

id rather the battery last half as long as it used to, only if it would speed the processor up or something.


sh*ts weak

I'm performing a reflash now because ncurses-lib library is damaged, the update won't work. Can't be uninstalled.

sigh

Indeed

I've yet to upgrade my N800 but from what I'm seeing there aint much there to warrant the time and effort to upgrade right now :(

Any means of overclocking the cpu on the N800 as Garage eluded to . . . sort of

Looks like with Nokia dropping their Invitation Messaging VOIP software we really have no way do perform video calls with desktops anymore. That saddens me as I was looking forward to keeping in touch with a little video chat with friends and family whilst out and about.

So nothing new except a poor flash 9 implementation and skype ? everything else the update brings is either a fix or the official use of some hack (SDHC)

Whats the power management like now ? Does it max the brightness and keep the display on when cabled up and dim when disconnected ? Are there options for that ?

This is all based on hearsay atm; I'm gonna find a window to upgrade sometime later today. Anyone had any luck booting this off an SD/MMC yet ?

Kinda bummed out considering . . .

I am missing CTRL, ALT modifiers on mine.

Anybody tried the fanoush boot-menu-initfs with the new OS ?

Thank you.

I would also like to know if the boot menu works.

Biggest letdown for me are the non-working themes. I really like the 10 and 12 point themes (for example Nuvo and XP themes). These default themes seem to be for the visually impaired.

Is it the Hildon Theme cacher that's causing the problem? Any ideas anyone?

Maybe it's me... but..when you are in between a call.. how to text chat with others ?!?!?
I see the notice people are writing me, but I can't see any means to switch to the text
window to reply to them.
BBTW: no video support for Skype. Yet. (I hope).

It was discuss various times... Video will not be available in this release.
