Sometime folks can't be happy with what they have. Not saying there aren't issues, just saying never loose sigh of how great this phone still is.

I had 10 web windows open, vnc, conky and the phone was still way more responsive than before. Thanks nokia, thanks maemo community. The n900 to me is the gift that keeps giving....

I just wanted to say that I'm also pleased with PR1.3 - there aren't huge changes - but the refinements and bug fixes are appreciated. Thanks to all concerned!

For instance, I use the FM Radio App a lot, and I've found much less stuttering in PR1.3. And I'm sure the battery life is better.

I would also say that, the mere fact that PR1.3 was released is positive - it shows there is still some attention being paid to the N900! :-)

Totally agree, even overclocked to 850, 900, or even 1100 MHz, I am getting great perhaps 25%longer battery life than before pr1.3. With overclock and some fairly heavy usage I can go about a day and a half on 1 charge. Used to be dead by about 9pm on first day without some conservation.

As for other improvements, experience is generally smother and more polished. Now all I want to do is figure out how to dual boot to Meego!

In my opinion pr1.3 combined features from pr1.2 plus some added features and the stability of pr1.1 the result is a satisfactory release of maemo. I like it, but people tend to be more demanding and NOKIA has rather other issues to take care about than to produce a new update with all fullfilled features every month or so. As one said "Where are the hugs with no bugs" imagine the N900 being bug-free how could the developers use our skills to enhance it? I loved the the N900 the way I bought it not the way I thought it will be.

I'm so far happy with PR1.3 except of the fact that my cpu usage is really high, even in idle without any app opened. Already did a fresh reflash, but everything stayed the same.
Here's a screenshot of my "idling" N900 : (2 till 6 am)
