2. No lags as of yet
3. Status area in top right corner (only in menu view not when in map mode) shows battery, internet connection, signal , and time
4. Much better GUI, better looking icons, better layout,
5.On the first page of the main menu there is a traffic button( doesn't work yet they mentioned it will be up in soon showing real time traffic), and speed camera that allows u to configure settings for it
6The manage Poi button has more options and cool ones at that such as warn when near POI
7. And finally its fullscreen by default no unnecessary xterm codes
Thats just some major things I've noticed so far hope it enlightens those looking forward to the update
8. ALSO WOW WOW it auto-rotates to portrait mode and it looks quite nice and very usable , just noticed it now .


What he^ said only the exact opposite.


This needs work. It sucks down the battery significantly and for the first time that I have ever noticed, my N900 is running hot and warm to touch.

Icons are washed out and the dynamic menus stutter and pause so much I had to turn that feature off.
It still has issues with sound where instructions cause it to freeze up momentarily.

I hope it gets better and I hope this is only affecting mine for whatever reason and not everyone else's.

BTW, I'm running the clock back @ stock configuration.

I'll try it again in the morning.
