what do you mean by this: "I'm a bit frustrated too - Fremantle could certainly be easier to develop for if Nokia stuck closer to Debian or Ubuntu instead of including so much closed and outdated stuff..."

thx
Imagine if one could use Debian's arm repos straight off on the device or even in the SDK. The SDK uses very old software - examples: debhelper (for building/packaging) and scons (build tool like make).
The closed stuff (graphics, power-management) affects the kernel upgrade path in the long run - and adds security issues...
