Well, if it fixes at least some of the random reboot problems, it's worth it. I never have these kinds of problems with my 770. Then again, my 770 isn't always searching for a WAP, so that could have something to do with it...

That mnotify thing is quite good. I wish it could keep track of more than one account though (if it can, I haven't noticed). One strange thing is that if you're not online, but gets online automatically by e.g. starting the email app, mnotify doesn't seem to notice this until you tell it with the stylus.

One quite big disappointment with this upgrade is that the media player seems to be as poor on codecs as before, it still can't play anything from my standard collection. And the file manager still doesn't even recognise .mov files as media player files (those are from my digital camera).

I can't give out details, but in my opinion the bug fixes are worth it.

texrat do you refer to a new hardware easter egg or possibly the ground work being laid for one?

Some opera info from after the upgrade:
- Version 8.5 Internal
- Build 2.0.40

Maybe someone could check what it says for the pre-upgrade version? I didn't think of it.
Use just 'about:' as URL to get it.

Why not? Are you under NDA?
