I'm a bit disappointed, frankly. They fixed 100 bugs, true, but of those only 3 or 4 actually manifested on my device, and of those some were already patched by others, like the new pulseaudio package.

True, they fixed that annoying phone glitch with the buttons running all over on ring and with the sum of all issues it feels snappier, but then again it already felt snappier when I increased computing power by 50% via overclocking.

It's good that they delivered and to my understanding the new Qt and stuff really will boost the device's ability to get new apps. It would be great news if it weren't for the fact that -devel seems to have fewer and fewer additions.

So yes, thanks, Nokia, and if the Qt thing pans out it'll be worth the wait. If development continues to slow down then it wasn't worth it. Frankly, I'd rather have the buttons freak out again if they'd fix the alarm sound shortage or something useful. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then my N900 randomly decides to only ring (speakers) for about 5 seconds on an alarm. UI still is lit and all, but no sound. Sometimes 5 seconds is too little to wake me up.

@wakkamis: It does that. Mine spent maybe 10 minutes at 0%. Let it be. It takes a while.

Keep the forums clean: use "Thanks" button instead of the thank you post.
