To pick up on Texrats advice...
Please be aware of that HK version is some kind of different to the global version so there maybe other things they have to look at for the global one.
Asking again and again for explanations wont help as you wont get much more than already released.
Nokia has a demand of working PRs so it might take some time to fullfill this. As already mentioned in the email, there are some bugs not easy to track down. I am currently investigating in hildon-home hickups which take about 2-5 days to occure so to determine which of the 3rd party programs is causing it takes weeks of testing already. He wrote about longterm issues and maybe they got a way to get something like home mess up in a shorter time but still it will take weeks to test and fix.
If you like to have your phone broken or bricked because of a leaked PR's RC this is ok with me. Maybe there is no closed community test for PR1.2 as Nokia does not want to take the risk yet. Have you thought of that they may bricked devices while testing and decided to not release yet?
Please chill out on the PR1.2 topic. We all have to wait! Posting off-topic and Nokia requests all over the place doesn't help any one but keeps the moderators busy.

You must read the thread.
2. The downgrading to the official FW 1.1. causes the brick, see my point 1.

Please dont listen or take ion everything you read from other forums because this forum IS the forum for N900 users and here is where you will get correct info.
For your info i did flash the erlier released fw and back to the leaked fw for no other reason than to see if it was possible or not and i did not have a single problem.

downgrading from PR 1.2 leak to 1.1.1 is no more dangerous than downgrading from PR 1.1.1 to PR 1.0
this is all a non argument really if people would be truthful.
however i do not recommend people touch leaked firmware, but if you do whatever happens or does not happen its all of your own doing and you will get little sympathy
