We should have a Asia Pacific mirror up and running shortly. I will let you know when it's online.

Avoid using this update if you have an 8100 pearl. I upgraded to this firmware and while all of the menu/font features have been enhanced and look really nice, the Camera doesn't work correctly. Each picture is overexposed, it's like someone shining a torch into the lense on the camera.
Google maps also fails. (ver 2.2.2)

I've reverted back to 4.2.1.101 firmware on the pearl and now everything works again. Camera works how it should. Interesting that the firmware would ruin the camera settings.

I'll be skipping this firmware and waiting until the one after 4.5.075.

PS. The camera "white balance" setting was manually changed to every setting and still no good.

Just re: the Google maps, I went onto this upgrade (pearl 8100) and had no problems with Google Maps 2.2.2 (or the camera) - then I went to the next beta up ~.69, (apps package that is - the Telstra upgrade is Apps ~.52, I think) - that's when I had trouble with Google maps 2.2.2, it wouldn't run properly - all I did was power off & back on, then it started to work again.....? it seems to be fine every time since as well, I still have no idea why it wouldn't run that once.

I have noticed that the camera picks up low light very well, but haven't noticed any problems with it on either the Telstra upgrade or the "newer" beta.
