I haven't had much time to use it but there appeared to be an increase in battery life and some fixes of things that caused the UI to become unresponsive and cause CPU usage spikes, and that was my main gripe. The improved Qt behavior of an app i had already compiled and installed is nice. Now the number keys work for a certain UI widget, whereas they didn't before.
Ive just got my phone back from the Nokia care centre, the morning after I updated the phone it froze and I couldn't get it up and running, so Ive only just had time to have a play around with it after the new update.
I cannot say that I am disappointed as there have been some nice enchantments, the battery life seems better, skype video, portrait for the web, Im for Facebook, and it does seem that bit faster. but admittedly I was hoping for a bit more.
Regarding the news that they are not going to update to meego, It doesn't really bother me, but I do hope they do keep working on the Maemo platform and continue with software updates and improving the phone and functions at least for 2-3 years which will see most owners through there providers contracts , at the same time I hope we get lots more applications, which are really lacking.
In truth I'm not sure how motivated developers, maemo and nokia will be bearing in mind Maemo are not part of the future plans.
Only time will tell but I lets hope they do not let Nokia N900 customers down after we bought into this fabulous phones potential.
Seems all win here.
