Well I can't say as I've been using it a lot since yesterday and today, but I needed to charge it only once

How to get a valid mac adress to put for the validation.

Pick a random number between 126409750144 and 126409842879. (those numbers are in decimal, not hexadecimal). Then google for "convert <number_you_picked> to hexadecimal" without the quotes.Take the hexadecimal result (it will say 0x<some_string> use the <some_string> part) and use it for the validation.

edit: you have to add two zeroes to the beginning of it too, see post below.

It looks like N810 mac adresses are all in this range, so if you pick a number from here it will work, but the number won't be from anyones specific device, so no one should get in trouble.

Took about 5 minutes to find this range trought some trial and error, maybe they should consider getting a more secure validation system :P
Thank you - worked for me!!

Search for quit R&D mode. It's been said a few times on this board.

SEARCH! It's probably already been answered.

Rather than having to use Google for a decimal/hexadecimal conversion, I updated the instructions post with a simplified method:

- For step 2 in the instructions, any number between 001d6e9c0000 to 001d6e9cffff should work. Pick any random 4 digits (between 0-9 and a-f hex) as the last 4 digits. (credit to TPC)

It narrows the range found by TPC but makes picking a number a bit easier.

Anyone else having a problem after flashing os2008 where the tablet enters a boot loop?

I reflashed back to 2007 and it works fine, but when I flash 2008 it just shows the white Nokia screen and then reboots.

Wow --- I only caught wind of this release last night. I did not know it was a beta-leak. I'm going to stand-by until the official release is out.

It's just not worth it to me.

I'll leave it up to the rest of you guys to report how it's all working out!
