Again, depends on how you look at things.
Reliability is not hardware-dependent. N800s and N810s will both update just fine as long as people don't screw around with their installs.

All osv's prior to 43-7 depended on the documentation.

Well, I speak from what I read. So far, ALL the reported SSU problems are from N800s, I have yet to see even ONE from N810. Can we say N800 owner 'screw around' more often than N810 owner? Or simply there are just MORE N800s around than N810? Anyhow, my N810 is still running 24-13, and I am NOT interested to go thru 30-2, 36-5 then 43-7, especially the reported 'reboot loop', I guess reflash is my only option.

Perhaps I'm misreading. You mean the User Manuals?

Yes, preinstalled-documentation-rx*4. It weighs in at around 20MB and would cause SSU updates to fail when the system ran out of space while updating.

For better or worse, SSU wont even allow you to upgrade, "SSU features upgrade ..... RX44 documentations missing."

My N810 is running 24-13 on int flash and dual boot to 43-7. I made a clone from my N800 and stuck it in the N810. Interesting, uh?

Not particularly, no. They're the same hardware running practically the same software, of course swapping that software from one to the other will work.

What I meant is the way I 'upgrade' .

I feel that battery life has improved. Visiting relatives, over the last few days I would have been bored to death without it*, so I'd be online from about 11am (using jabber/googletalk), rss reading, a bit of web browsing, and battery didn't run out till 9pm. Wifi set to moderate power saving, and wifi signal strength very good so I guess it was able to throttle back.

However, when I watched a few videos on videocenter the battery died within an hour!

* when it got really hectic on boxing day (26th) I went and "hid" in a back bedroom and did a system upgrade on my laptop from suse11 to suse11.1.
