About the bluetooth icon.
I think it's real meaning is NOT to tell you that bluetooth is on or off.
It is there to tell you if you are communicating with a device or not.
That's because the power management policies of the tablet will turn if off for you when it has not been used for a while.
The former behavior was inconsistent with this, and they made it now consistent.

I don't turn the bluetooth off an I don't leave it "reachable", in this way I am sure it won't drain my battery when it is not in use.
Or at least the impact is very low.

I like the way it behaves now.

Wow!!! How far we have come since the N770. The new 2008OS is wonderful. The main thing I see is to do a clean update and everything works great. The first time I updated I used my old backup and things just seemed to be screwed up. So I just went ahead and updated with out the backup. Thanks Nokia for a great looking OS..................

I know everyone has been trying to get Skype working (which I am trying download again) to see if I can get it installed. I was wondering, though, if anyone has been able to get the Gizmo IM to video chat between the N800 and a PC? I have got it to work between my two N800's, but not with a N800 and a PC. Any one else have any luck?

Just after I installed the OS2008 beta I was having problems with the web browser crashing when I went to maemo.org/downloads or other websites. Skype also wouldn't install.

Today, I decided to flash a second time and this time NOT TO restore backups. Now, everything is working great with the web browser and Skype installed first time. I'm not sure if the Skype is because as someone mentioned with them updating the application list or not. Either way, I'd recommend just starting fresh and not restoring everything that you had previousely.

I also noticed that the look and feel of the 2008OS was different without the old backup file. The tablet seems to be more responsive than before.........

Yeah, I noticed that too I just didn't have any proof that there was a difference. I believe the fonts are smaller and borders are a little different too. And, the responsiveness seems better too as you pointed out.
