(I don't think anyone is in a position to announce a release date - I imagine the firmware is still being written and tested. As with any software, delays are entirely possible).

Even if this was the case I would rather it was ready "when it's ready" rather than rushing to release it. Even if it means waiting a little bit longer.

Also the release of MeeGo for the n900 will be a development release - it will not be in a suitable state for daily use (AFAIK - I could be proved wrong). Assuming something is released at the end of March.

There is no point in whining about this now - It's not even the end of March yet!

Also, why the sense of urgency? The n900 is perfectly usable.

Until both these things happen I will continue to enjoy using my n900.

Usable it is, fun, not so sure. In a desperate effort to keep rootfs "clean" and spacey in wait for PR 1.2 , I have yet to install anything new since the last minor update. Not only that, I have also removed almost all my apps in an effort to conserve space, resulting in a mere 39MB of free rootfs.

I m aware that it usually needs about 42-3MB in rootfs and I have reasons to believe this update won't be any different=/ (there used to be something about it around the forums if you look hard enough).
