Oh yeah. Sure. That'll convince me.

I don't see how servers being unavailable (still hasn't happened to me even once) has anything to do with the App Manager being crappy, but whatever you say, Karel. Whatever you say. Go on finding random reasons to complain.

Since I have never had any memory card issues (touch wood) I am going to wait for a more substantial upgrade to come out before upgrading unless anyone can give me a compelling reason to do it (2 *2gb sandisk cards).
To continue on the thread derailment one of the things that slightly put me off recommending linux for noobs was the command line application installation and adding libraries etc, the application manager really takes a lot of that work out of it and with a basic understanding of what you are doing it really does go far to making things "just work".ew

It doesn't suck for me. How do I get it to suck?
One weird thing is that now that I installed the 'fix', I find that opening and closing programs is accompanied by a loud noise I've never heard before, and I've been using my N800 since January.
Edit: I was able to turn off the sounds in control panel, but when I ran Rhapsody, I could only get sound that was too quiet or way distorted and loud, making classical piano sound like Jimi Hendrix, sort of.
So, I decided to try headphones, and that was normal. And when I went back to the speakers, they were back to normal...
My theory is that the speakers were outputting sound assuming that headphones were plugged in, and plugging headphones in caused the N800 to come to its senses? Something like that...

What do you suggest to people who are not having memory corruption errors? I only have one 4 GB sdhc card and have not experienced any problems. Is there any other problems this firmware fixes or does it just cover the SDHC bug? At this point I am very relectant to reinstall all my programs...

It also covers large download problems. I would make the update simply to protect your card from failing.

N800 firmware update time... From Maemo:Nokia has released a new version of the Internet Tablet OS 2007 edition, available now for download. This new release (version number 4.2007.38-2) provides a software fix for a bug which may have appeared while copying large amount of data over-the-air or from external SDHC memory card to internal memory or vice versa. In some cases the downloaded data may have corrupted. This new release fixes also a bug which drops in some cases voltage from memory card, though cards should manage this kind of situations without corruption.Download the firmware now.
