Not the big one, no. But I think it is the pre-cursor of good things to come.

None the less N900 does not seem to care about that because I hoped that if I marked a contact as a landline the sms option would disapear... however, it doesn't :mad:

That was a goog one! Maybe they'll make it that day but not as a joke, and we'll have a lot of confusion (as always)

It doesn't look like the update, no - the changelog in there covers the differences between the pre-release and release firmwares, so looks very old to me.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date

I think someone in this thread mentioned 22nd March (this monday), and seen as the user guide is now out, and UK has had the previous update.. i'm guessing his theory could be right. ?

I agree.
The packages comparision shows it's got Qt 4.5.3.

From what's been said, it should be at least Qt 4.6.
