ok, a leaked pr1.3 sounds great, but i'm more looking forward to the meego dual boot, the latest meego build for the n900 looks bloody fast with hw acceleration......... and it looks very usuable, even with phone and messages and......
the n900 is the BOMB .

Even if it's not accelerated Flash 10.1 is more optimized for a mobile platform than 9 is (resulting in better performance). So there are still benefits for having 10.1. It's just GPU acceleration isn't one of them yet.

wouldn't it be awesome if we had flash 10.xx with gpu acceleration .

If not accelerated Flash 10.1 eats much more battery - and that seems true, then I vote AGAINST 10.1: There is no possibility to easily chose flash version, right?

I think we should wait for meeGo official flash10.1 support to see if it is actually worth while. For now all we can do is wait, it won't be long I guess since MeeGo1.1 is already finalising. MeeGo 1.2 is also on the move as well. Let say 6months from now if we are lucky enough to see flash 10.1 with GPU accel'.

wait is all we do my friend hope PR1.3 have good news like that, cause some flash animations and video still have bad performance in the maemo browser, but it works, and I'm glad for that :P

I'll eat my own Muffin hat if it isn't coming in November

I bet we won't see a release of pr1.3 till start of next year or even longer........All the rumoured or even confirmed dates never happen, well so far they haven't happened for any of the things relatiing to the n900 since release, hell even the release date was messed around with.
For those thinking it will be out this month........don't keep your hopes up!

Software is released under a variety of licenses and it may be free to an end user when downloaded from an offiical source while not being licences for redistribution, making redistribution illegal. This is partly becuse...


...without the provenance of the official server's authentication, the software may have been modified by unknown third parties to do nasty things to your device, damaging the originator's reputation.

1. If you don't know the source (originator) and can't see the source (code), don't download. Who knows what it might be?

2. If it's legal, there will be a license. Without one, there's a risk.

Anyhoo, coming back to the specific from the general, we know Nokia hasn't released the software and in the past has said that such pre-PR releases are unauthorised. It is therefore more than reasonable for the mods to take the stance they have
