I see you're new around here. Welcome.
Don't know if I should point you to this link: http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware
It explains the procedure, but requires some knowledge of what you do. Good luck, and if you need help... just ask.

I have heard here in the comunity that you can brick your phone if you flash it to many times. I have flashed mine 3 times already. If so, how many flashes is too many?

That's nonsense. There's a limit to how many times a flash cell can be written to, but normal day-to-day writes will have more effect on that than an occasional reflash.

Hi, I am at PR1.2 because I am not sure about Kernel Power.
Is the Kernel Power 100% compatible to PR1.3? I don't want 'old' components because of an outdated Kernel Power.
Wiki says it is for PR1.2
http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power
Shall I wait for an updated Kernel Power?

I'm in California and my N900 was flashing for the PR 1.3 update at 5:30am PST on 10/25. Actually, 5:30am is what I have the Alarm set on my N900 to wake me up, so the update probably came earlier than 5:30am for me. I woke up and proceeded to perform the update which pretty much installed without a problem. N900 is running smooth as silk! Almost time to try out MeeGo 1.1!

Same as JayBEE. US here too and on 1.3. No apps lost or anything after OTA update.
@Morku, AFAIK, the kernel is compatible with 1.3. I updated while on it and 1.3 continues to recognize it. Multiboot is recognized as well. The only issue I've really had is that tweak flash no longer works fully (green lines) but other than that, not a spot of trouble.
