N900 Firmware 44-11

As I’m sure most people already know a minor firmware update has been released for the N900.

Apparently the main reason for this update is to allow the for the much larger PR1.1 firmware update to be installed OTA (Over The Air) through the Application Manager. The two most visible changes are to the Application Manager (new icons give it a better look and feel) and that the N900 Ovi Store is now open.

The update can be installed OTA via the Application Manager or using the Nokia Software Updater in Windows. I’d recommend the first method as it’s faster, easier, and you wont lose any settings. If you run into an error message about no space to install then read this.

Here’s looking forward to the release of the big update.

Update: fairly good info on the changes in this release here from Urho Konttori
