So we have to wait until theres an update. Nobody knows when Nokia releases an Update and so every Date you can find is a lie.

Edit:

Best hint for an Update is when Nokia updates NSU, most times after a month there is a Update for a Phone.
This reminds me a certain historical behavior from Blizzard company,
Which never sets dates. Even from wikipedia :
The company also has a history of declining to set release dates, choosing to instead take as much time as needed, generally saying a given product is "done when it's done."
And from starcraft 2 website :
At this point, it's too early to provide an estimate of the release date. As with all Blizzard games, we will take as much time as needed to ensure the game is as fun, balanced, and polished as possible.
From Diablo 3 website :
It's too early to estimate Diablo III's release date. As with all Blizzard Entertainment games, our goal is to create a game that is as fun, balanced, and polished as possible. We intend to take as much time developing Diablo III as is necessary to ensure the game meets our own high expectations and those of our players. We're aiming to release Diablo III on both Mac and Windows simultaneously in as many regions as possible, and to localize the game in several languages. We'll have more details to share about countries, languages, and specific dates as we get closer to release.
So, it's safe to say that nokia is not the only company acting this way, but the BIG difference between Nokia and Blizzard is that when Blizzard releases it's product, it's unbeatable, where as Nokia always releases their products with flaws.
(Iv'e owned 3120, 3100, 6100, N73, N95, N86 and now N900)
They all had flaws which took time to fix.

On the other hand, I own lots of blizzard games, they are all polished fun and well maintained.
