There are many bug fixes in this fabled PR1.2, some of which were closed in the bug tracker 2-3months ago.

There is one bug in particular that has me ready to throw my N900 into the ocean. This one.
Please note how it was marked fixed on 2/23. This particular bug affects me EVERY DAY. That means, I waste a few minutes every day trying to find the correct combination of actions to set the device straight, or waiting minutes for a reboot. If I take a call while in my car and the device is mounted, there's a 60% chance it'll exhibit this bug when I end the call. That means I lose navigation (Ovi maps) if I have to reboot.

There are several smaller bugs that I put up with on a constant basis that have been flagged as fixed months ago in 1.2. If this community is made up of power users, why do we put up with Nokia's current update model? Why can we not have a regular stream of package updates as bugs are fixed/validated? I understand that some major changes require application changes,etc. But the vast majority of these minor bug fixed affect the proprietary Nokia apps that no one is depending on for their applications..
