Let's get a few things straight:

a) the SDK is a bundle of targets (with their respective libraries), toolchains and the IDE

b) the SDK *itself* does not contain any version of mobility - the Simulator, Symbian, Maemo, etc, targets do (which in turn means that you can't install Maemo without getting the mobility libs)

c) the versions of libraries in different targets have nothing to do with each other. By default, Maemo has QtMobility 1.0.2, Symbian has 1.1.3, and Harmattan+Simulator have 1.2

d) no support was dropped, the only change is that on new installs, Maemo is not a target enabled by default to save on download sizes, you can still get it from the on-line installer (or through the updater).

Thus when you see "QtMobility 1.2 support in the SDK" in reality that means Simulator support, documentation, etc (not the actual libraries)

attila77: with the 1.2.1 build, the n900 accelerometer doesnt seem to work anymore. Maybe im not setting it up correctly, but when using your 1.2 built lib, it outputs sensordata just fine. be prepared
Eeek. Will pay attention.
