Wow!
Excellent news, Evo.
So, anyone knows anything about the update? Any new Flash? (Would looove to see 10.1...)
I dont see much to update apart from Flash...
Phone runs quite nicely for me. I just hope it will be available as a SSU.

So, any changelogs on site?
I couldnt find any sign of a new Flash. (Prolly wrong repo to look in, this is the Extras...)

an update is still probably a couple of months away, but its a great sign that an update is coming. i wouldnt expect more than bug fixes and qt 4.7, anything else will be a bonus

This is just to inform that, Nokia hasn't forgotten N900. Maemo in other words.

Maemo-freaks Check out the 1st post.

DUAL BOOT MAEMO + MeeGO! Awesomeness!

[dscobsct]

it just says though that with pr1.3 you will easily be able to dual boot, what does that mean? they will put an easy install of meego option in the firmware? native boot manager?
very interesting

[arun8gb]

A bootmanager may be.

[dscobsct]

been doin some looking round and its most likely changes to the maemo kernel to enable dual booting of meego. dont ask me how that works though lol

[arun8gb]

lol

I heard some talk about that they would adopt Multiboot... dunno if thats true.
But i believe Multiboot can work with MeeGo if you put the MeeGo kernel on the phone and put in a MSD with the MeeGo partition-table. (It needs its own SD card for some reason... )
And dual-boot is scheduled for devs, not the mainstream OS available through SSU and alike.
