Hello maemo community .
Im new here and ive just got my n900 yesterday and i was trying to access the new firmware update for the ovi store but its not letting me.
Investigating its giving me a 404 error on the Nokia Software Update catalouge.
But then again i read somewhere that vodaphone have their own custom firmware installed....which sucks.
Is this true ?
I cant even access the extras-testing
or the extras-devel catalouge and i have a feeling it may be locked out.

The firmware version is: 1.2009.42-11.205.1

If this is custom firmware is it possible to use the flasher and flash it with the normal updatable, bug fixing, with no vodaphone 360 **** included, no voip locking, money charging for wi fi in a foreign country even tho your in a hotel and the wi fi is free, firmware ?


I should explain that.. had a n96 before, went to amsterdam you no as you do to smoke some herbs and at the hotel i used the wi fi, i come back to england with a ****ing 465 pound phone bill.
And i only used it to update my facebook status.. .
Apperently in a foriengn country they charge you, well its not apperent they do and its the most stupidest thing known to man.
Now since this is a INTERNET TABLET phone, with WI FI, and i will end up going to another COUNTRY, i dont want this vodaphone firmware on my n900, and i advise anyone else going to travel to another country with the n900 to do the same .
