If they haven't announced a release date, how can we know whether or not there has been a delay?

.
nokia is always delayed.

like most software projects/releases

Ahhh the first part.... came from a nokia forum person, but not an official statement.... read into that as you wish

that UK didnt get the v3 update because it was coming merged with pr 1.2
The second part, was bob hope at his tricks again and came tricking out.... Allthough yes lots of rumours, and some sensible have been saying April/March.... (Notice april first)....
Still a rumour
end of feb/march

i was hoping it would be in the 1st week of march but seems like there is gonna be delays.

Do you guys think its going to be delayed more due to n900 including more things in the update because of the whole meego 1 on n900?

2 things i could do with, turn by turn maps (fingers crossed supports potrait mode) and bug fixes

like many others i check for updates everyday....sad i know :P
Nokia N900 was designed with focus on use as mobile computer with the telephony as a feature. Hence, the wide support of landscape orientation. Based on consumer feedback, we are adding portrait support in the browser of the Nokia N900, but only our MeeGo 1 software (formerly known as Maemo 6) will have full support of portrait and landscape orientations of all applications.

yeh i know this but i personally not bothered about other apps supporting portrait mode. for me it makes sense to have "maps" in portrait mode as almost every car holder sits phone in portrait plus holding phone in landscape while walking with maps would be bit lame...

someone looked at the version of the last update and when it was released, and saw the version of the next update and based on its name determined it meant march 22nd.

I have no clue if its right or not, but his logic made sense. so I would wait till march 22nd.

Personally, I have given up on Nokia. I have learned a great lesson with this N900. Don't get me wrong, the phone is good but all I can say is I have given up and all I have now is HOPE.
