So my question is: can you overclock your N900 without affecting updates? Can i overclock my N900 and still normaly use updates from "Aplication Manager"? And what else does overclock "block" on my device?

PS. Sorry for my bad english, I am from Croatia.

Thanks for the answers in advance!
Cheers!
Yes to all, the only thing you might do is fry your CPU but I don't think anyone has managed that yet.
I've been running at 250-1150 with swap set to 30 for about 4 months now, both on PR1.2 and PR1.3 and I've seen no adverse side effects yet.
