thats alot of speculation u got there. any evidence?
handwriting recognition is made by pen power, but they still need time to incorporate it with n900, if it is to be used natively inside the device. if its just its own program for handwriting recognition, that would be pointless wouldn't it?

I've attended today's launch event that was held at the Island Shangri-La Hotel (near Pacific Place,Admiralty) and tonight's bloggers' gathering. Here are some pics and video of both events:
Hong Kong artists Kate Tsui and Ronald Cheng. The guy next to them is Bruce Lam, Nokia HK's General Manager.
Local shops will start selling N900 on May 1st 2010, at the price of HK$4998:
Penpower's Handwriting solution supports "Hong Kong special characters" (those in HKSCS character set):

Bloggers' gathering, also organized by Nokia, was held at the second floor of the Nokia's flagship store in Causeway Bay (near Times Square):

I was told by the Nokians that the PR1.2 firmware will not be released globally so soon... so, don't expect it to be released for download at the same time as the Hong Kong edition.
By the way, since PR1.2 is with Qt 4.6 bundles, some apps that were developed in previous versions of Qt may not be able to run properly. Perhaps that's why Nokia would like to hold the PR1.2 release date a bit so that developers will have time to adjust their code for better Qt 4.6 compatibility.

Also, they need to hurry up and shuffle that PenPower package over to the non-free catalog or to the Nokia repositories instead of the free catalog.
