I have updated my firmware to PR1.0.1 when it came out and was able to access OVI store, downloading a few nice applications like the anglemeter. However, I can no longer access it. Is OVI store only accessible to those running the latest firmware release, which by now is PR1.1?
I wanted to wait some more with the upgrade to PR1.1 after having read about a number of issues with WLAN connectivity. PR1.1 seems to have made the power management more aggressive to the extent that the N900 cannot be logged into by ssh when it has been inactive for too long itself. Others have seen even more fundamental problems with WLAN. Since downgrading is impossible (one then loses the phone capabilities, I've read), I'm reluctant to make the upgrade to PR1.1. But it seems that PR1.0.1 is not an option if one wants to install new applications, at least from OVI store, although I would have expected that the package management could deal with it at any rate (dependencies should be checked on the level of the set of packages involved, not the complete system, right?).
