Posted on 25/10/2010 by gerrymoth

As promised a few weeks ago (See HERE) Nokia have released a new firmware update PR1.3 for the Nokia N900.

Latest software release for Nokia N900 is 20.2010.36-2 and brings the following:

- Nokia OVI Suite support added

- Performance improvements

- Support for QT4.7 and QT Mobility 1.0.2 (same as in NEW MeeGo 1.1 coming soon)

The update should be available OTA from the device update manager or flashed with the files from http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php NOW and available via Nokia Software Updater very soon.

NOTE: This PR1.3 update will flash your device, so I’d take a backup and restore after it?

COMING SOON: N900 Maemo PR1.3 & MeeGo on N900

This day just gets better

Direct from the MeeGo website comes this little bit of new:

The PR 1.3 update is quite close now, and with that you can easily dual boot between Maemo and Meego on your N900. There is also a possibility of developing applications supporting both operating systems, based on Qt and Qt Mobility APIs on the Maemo side. It means that you can develop once in PC with Qt Creator, and test your applications on both Maemo and MeeGo, directly on your N900 device!

Exciting times ahead for all us N900 Users, oh I’m so glad I held onto my device
