Well the hardware is slightly dated.

Update worked smoothly on my N810 except adblock as stopped working. Browser seems snappy, but ads, ads dirty stinkin ads everywhere.

So, if you want to use your tablet from the card, wait till tonigh.
1. Will I need to install SSU from both flash and while booting from SD?
2. Will I need to do the same with fanoush's flasher?
Thanks!

Well, if you are trying to keep an up-to-date system in flash, yes, you'll have to install the SSU there. If not, it may work, but changes to the kernel or initfs could cause issues requiring updating the corresponding userland.
There's one initfs, so you'll only need to fix that once.

I also got reboot loop. Going to reflash, but I don't find the last OS version to download, only "crude" Diablo. Do I have to download Diablo and wait for the updates to show up?

It was probably the patch that fixed the version string (the last update changed the reported version which resulted in websites thinking the flash we had was outdated). I dunno how to uninstall it (though I do remember where we got it from).
Anyway, what's the command to backup my bootmenu (I configured it already with details like return to : #) so I prefer not having to reconfigure it.
so far microb is a bit faster. i haven't noticed anything else, but i have only used it for a couple minutes.

Honestly speaking, I wouldnt suggest to update your NITs if you are using multiple OS to boot to since I think it is not so worthwhile to take risk with this update.

Their is a big difference in the browser speed now. I was almost ready to give up on my N800. Its very usable now, even fit to width view! I dont have to use skweezer anymore yeah!
Finally I have an "Internet Tablet" and not a 300 dollar freezing, crashing paper weight.

All has been well with my 810 since I got it in May, including reflashing and update notifications until today's OS update. Following today's update the desktop was all there but wireless was lost and all buttons were unresponsive. I then removed the battery and restarted and the device was in a rebooting loop and would not recover. I'm in the middle of reflashing now and will report the outcome.
