I have loaded the RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin file as a partition (removing the first few hexcodes of the file and then using WinHex) and I have found the following differences between the original FAT32 partition in N900 and the updated one:
.documents: Many differences in files (User guides) and a new document named "maemo_software_copyright.pdf"
.images: no changes
.sounds: no changes
.videos: only different Nokia_N900.mp4
Mac OS: no changes
.n900.ico different
autorun.inf different
This indicates that OTA update does not update the eMMC contents. On the other hand, I cannot load the ext3 partition or other partitions contained in RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin. I still need help for this.
Cheers.

Is the Icon and video that much cuter?
But yeah, if anyone figure out how to extract the ext3 fs... that'd be nice!

ok, it's actually very easy to extract:
flasher-3.5 -u -F vanilla.bin
you get an mmc file..
than:
mount -o loop mmc somefolder/
there you go
flasher-3.5 -u -F vanilla.bin
you get an mmc file..
than:
mount -o loop mmc somefolder/
there you go

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=53593 - Guy on here talking about modifing the menu (and someone suggesting that he can't because he hasn't got latest eMMC)....
so maybe it is worth full-flashing to get the most out of PR1.2???? but I'm guessing.....
I'd like to know if there is any significant change in the new eMMC firmware (RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin) to update the N900 to it. I've just updated my N900 basic firmware to PR1.2 via OTA (and it works perfectly), but I don't know if it is worth to fully reflash the device including the MMC. Does anybody know the changes present in the new eMMC image? Why Nokia has released an updated image of the eMMC?
Best regards,
Iker.
