I reflashed my n900, as I was having trouble getting some things to install (KMplayer, Extra Codecs) - reporting gstreamer version unavailabe (yet it showed as installed in the repo). Just got round to trying this out again. News still not working. iPlayer only seems to work using the original iPlayer (not Beta) using the bundled browser, not the Firefox download. To get it to work well, I had to open the program in a new window, and close the original iPlayer window. It seems to work better (smoother) now. I originally downloaded update to 1.2 over the phone, but reflashing with 1.2 direct from the Nokia site seems to clear up a couple of problems - and it looks to me like there is more stuff shows under the Applications manager (the spirit level wasn't there before, which is more useful than Attitude).

Mish.
