Seems like there is between a 5 and 30mb gain - i got nearly 30 - yay to me!

Would love to know the ins and outs of how, but really, just happy that it has!

Kernel version before: Linux Nokia-N900-42-11 2.6.28-omap1 #1 PREEMPT Wed Oct 28 15:32:55 EET 2009 armv7l unknown
Kernel version after: Linux Nokia-N900-42-11 2.6.28-omap1 #1 PREEMPT Fri Dec 11 13:33:12 EET 2009 armv7l unknown

App-Manager loads quickly.
Desktop switching, and the App-Menu seem snappier.

also noticed something unusual with the themes during the update:

Ubuntu has this script called ppa-purge in repos and that might be a good reference if someone starts to build script for N900.
Ppa-purge downgrades all packages coming from PPA's (Personal Package Archive) to standard ubuntu packages (i.e. to more stable and tested version) so it's not exactly the thing benny was after but in a way it's similar.

Good idea - if brainstorm loads up i'll add that too! - but for now - it's indefinitley loading! - oh how they need to move it to a new server fast!

Nah, I think the server is just busy.
Completed here OK (over 2G !).

Give it time, the servers are heavily loaded right now. I saw the same thing pre-update.

Application Manager DOES eventually restore/show/update applications...but it took around 10 minutes (with NO DEVEL or EXTRAS)...so hang in there.....
