I have more free space in rootfs after the update. About 8 to 10 MB more.

The new firmware version 1.2009.44.1 has solved the problem with ringing tone only going through the connected headset (wire or Bluetooth). Now one also hears the ringing tone in the loudspeakers on the phone itself, when a call comes in.
If you're wearing headphones somewhere quiet so that other people won't be disturbed by your phone, you don't want it to suddenly start making a noise.
Besides, if you're listening on headphones, why would you want it ring on speakers?

Update went fine and everything seems to be running ok. But now I seem to have "Documents", "Images" etc. folders twice in file manager. Weird...
Edit: Seems to be a known bug.

Just reiterating what others have mentioned post-successful-upgrade at a high level.
- scrolling between desktops and apps seems faster/crisper.
- media player scrolling is significantly improved. It seems media player no longer needs to re-populate the album or artist list ever time it is accessed, so you can now immediately begin scrolling through the list.
- I too see the updated App Manager links, but no Ovi Store access yet (I'm east coast US).
Overall, a very snappy upgrade experience so far.

Someone who takes this in his try to backup???
Try plugging in your USB cable and selecting "PC Suite Mode". It should then let you make a backup to your N900's internal memory.
You may pr may not need to quick the Backup application and cancel the Firmware update before activating PC Suite Mode (I did just to be safe).

Well, so someone can list here what are the packages upgraded by this update and the version of these packages please ???
A++
Actually after updating, the 1.2009.44 update showed up in application manager... but I couldn't install!!! I was low on battery.
The weird thing is that it was only a 15kb update... but after turning on the phone again, the update was gone....
So, probably we're missing just some file (that 15kb update...)

*I'm confused by this as well because with the original firmware, the behaviour seemed to be set to 'regression mode' already.
That is - alert sounds (ringing, sms, email, etc.) were being played through not only the headphones, but the device's loudspeakers. Definitely not the way I want it to behave.
Now some people seem to be reporting that there has been a change in the way it's working, but my N900 is still just as anti-social as ever. That is - it's still broadcasting alerts to the world even when headphones are plugged in..
Not sure what to make of this, especially as this update isn't supposed to be fixing anything of that sort in the first place..
