I'm quite surprise that there isn't any changes to the leaked version of the OS.

It seems like the leaked version was the only packaged version of OS. I thought we are expecting something better than the beta testing image, so I reflashed it back to PR1.2 and waiting for PR1.3 via OTA but quite disappointed that PR1.3 is pretty the same as the leaked PR.PE version. Lol wasted me a lot of time and Gigs in downloading over 140apps back onto my N900.

Self-induced disappointment from overblown expectations is your own fault

It was leaked so closely to the current image's release that I suspect there wouldn't have been time for any.

Well, that's your own fault. Hope you're happy

Yeah ahh was any of the main issues solved? Like the "Hildon Bug." It may be to soon to know but the "Hildon Bug" is a thorn in the N900!

What "Hildon Bug"? Can you point out a bugzilla id?

Purely subjective, but
a) I haven't noticed any audio stutter so far. The litmus test will be installing a new application while listening to something.
b) mail is faster
c) upgrade process was easy. remove offending extras-devel package which prevented the update, update via application manager, re-install power-kernel, reboot. All working as before.
d) transitions seem to be smoother

ps Nokia really disappointed me with this update because I was expecting it to upgrade my N900 to four cores and 8GB of RAM
