Me too.. I haven't upgraded yet-- haven't had time, and my n900 actually seems rock solid. I'm pushing upwards of 60 days uptime!

PR1.3 really doesn't fix any issues I was concerned about, so as far as I'm concerned, I'm not going to bother changing anything that could possibly introduce new bugs, then be left without solutions as Nokia abandons us.

Just my $0.02

There are ways to disable the update notification (flashing exclamation symbol box).

As for staying on PR1.2 I've tried to do that but I couldn't avoid the massive update even though I was merely trying to install other third party softwares. Ultimately I was forced to update to PR1.3.

DOS 6.0 is rock solid too. No sense in upgrading. It is not like there are any evolution or something going on in the tech world. Only fan-boys and suckers update their devices.

I've still got an automation controller in use for a project that runs DOS 6.0 -- tried to rewrite the application for Linux, and it just doesn't run as well...

It's "the nature of the beast" that some people don't want to change... I'll probably upgrade to PR1.3 sometime then overclock, but for now I'm happy with how my device works.

I'm still using PR1.1 since the update to PR1.2 failed while downloading the updated packages and didn't even get to installing anything.

I'm sure PR1.2 has interesting bug fixes in it, but so far I'm getting my money's worth from the device while running PR1.1. PR1.3 feels like the same thing; interesting bug fixes here and there but nothing critical. For me, that is.
