MeeGo PR 1.2 per Nokia N9 già in test agli sviluppatori!

Solo pochi giorni fa, Nokia ha rilasciato l’aggiornamento PR1.2 agli sviluppatori e fortunati possessori del modello N950 (mai commercializzato pubblicamente), affinché apportassero le opportune modifiche alle loro applicazioni e segnalassero eventuali BUG residui nel Sistema Operativo stesso; Oggi invece arrivano le prime segnalazioni che voglio disponibile la versione V 28.2011.03-1 (sempre PR1.2) anche per gli sviluppatori possessori di Nokia N9.
