Biggest issues on N8x0:
* Input control panel needs to be able to adjust N810 HW keyboard
* Slight problem when altering statusbar applets causing them to shift.
* Ability to generate full FIASCO images with initfs, wifi firmware and closed source DSP tasks (blockers are #3373 and practical issues we're working on), which means out of box wifi, sound, etc.
* Missing icons (See #4649, we can't use SDK icons)
* Need to have a proper event daemon that will work all the time and actually have some of the Diablo behaviours regarding HIM and such.
* Automounting.
We're getting a lot closer with 0.15, out on 20th. Since we have Xomap now, the perceived "slowness" is gone. Sound works, battery metering works, etc. Yet, we're waiting for Fremantle beta2
I'm personally getting to a point where I'd switch to Mer - and I'm picky. The percieved lack of applications is wrong btw, it's just because we have a lot of stuff in our extras-devel we haven't promoted.
