I think I might update now. I didn’t read anything about web browsing and flash being faster. My n800 has so few flaws that I didn’t think I needed the update.

This is a great upgrade. I reluctantly upgraded my n800 last night. I was wrong to be a skeptic. Here are the highlights:

1. Web browsing is faster and it doesn’t hiccup of flash like it used to.

2. Overall, the device has a little more spring in its step. Things pop open and closed a lot quicker than they used to.

3. Streamlined upgrades. If there’s an upgrade for any of your software, OS or otherwise, the device tells you. Right after I reinstalled all of my software, the update notifications started coming in.

These are just the things I’ve noticed in my limited use of Diablo. Of course there are some third party apps that need to be updated for Diablo, but that’s to be expected.

If you plan on upgrading, I’d advise against restoring your settings from a backup. The first time I updated to Diablo I did this, and the performance was terrible. You need to do a clean install to reap the benefits of this update.
