Downloading it as we speak, I decided to open this to see what other ppl have found about this. I currently got the 5.0.0.328.
Remember Blue= Positive Stuff
Red = Negative
fast very fast memory @ 42m but then i dont have much by way of apps loaded though i havent shrunk this os at all
pics in media browers load clean and quickly seems stable so far will post more findinds after spending a couple of days in the company of this new os so far .402 seems good to me
Seems fast, Boots at 41mb & quicker than .328.
Running facebook, captureit, orientation lock, bbm5, Google Maps, MSN.
Had one problem straight after install. When downloading OTA apps would halt download and drop BIS, until I went from browser to BB menu. Seems to have disappeared with a battery pull though.
Images appear pixilated poor quality when viewing from media folder.
Playing video volume adjustment only works when it wants to (1/5ish times). Had the same problem with 0.328. Buttons not faulty works perfect adjusting volume during calls.
Fast screen transitions
Running: Facebook Youtube Weatherbug Opera Mini Flikr
Memory High
BBM5 Working properly
Camera seems quicker and a shade higher quality
Cant get Application Centre working (Australia)
Basically, a more complete .328 here. Slightly faster again, slightly less buggy and screen dimming has been fixed.
in my case it is working very nicely, even got Dutch and Portuguese languages up and going (by copying language related files from 328/405 hybrid java folder to the 402 java folder).
don't forget to reboot a few times, normally little problems disappear.

Just wondering if any else has the problem that it keeps telling you have a new message, while there is none.
I had the same problem.. It was saying a new message.. Finally I found it I jus t got Blackberry registration message on March 1, 2006.. See the oldest message and just make it opened.

Finally found that out too, had to use the search function.
Finding so far:
More glow when selecting letters
Accelometer quicker
Pics load up a little bit faster
Cant find any negative things except that the App center is not working
whoa..this forum is HOT!!..calm down guys with your findings
Haha
Ah so it looks like while there was limited support for 4.7 themes in .328 (white bars), now it's pretty much a no-go for 4.7 themes at all. Makes sense. Builders should be making 5.0 themes now anyways.
Most of the annoying bugs seem to have been polished away.
Media player doesn't mute automatically anymore when switching songs.
If you press back while watching a video without stopping it first, it doesn't hang anymore.
In the alarm, the on/off/weekdays is not rotary anymore (if you go down after "off" it doesn't go back to "on"), which used to be annoying as it was tricky to make it stop where you exactly wanted.
Coverage seems also better. I have very bad cellphone coverage at home, used to never get more than 2 bars (3 when lucky) and used to have many areas with no coverage at all. Now i seem to have at least 3 bars everywhere.
Battery life seems slightly better
Phone is quick, no problems with drop outs
Memory remains fairly high
Keyboard ghosting returns and improved
Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com
When you say "Keyboard ghosting" are you referring to the letters popping up when you hold over a key like earlier versions of 5.0 used to do? I really miss that feature which they took out of the recent versions.
things I've noticed so far Keyboard Ghosting/Letters popping up
"blue glow" around keyboard letters more prominent and larger
transitions are faster
flick scrolling seems to have improved
editing text/cut and paste has been improved, a lot less jumping about now
radio more stable, doesnt keep dropping as much
music player improved some more
Thumbnails in photo library seem to be lower quality
Application Centre still isn't working
Might just be me but in all OS 5.0 leaks there's browser issues with some pages only showing up as html code such as Vodafone live

yep, it is a more polished version - similar to what was shown in the .252 simulator ages ago
Makes me wonder, did this fail because of Battery issues or will this be the official release - 2010!
The only problem I have with this OS is that it only got English language!! I can not get another lang which I need so much like spanish (since spanish is my default language)
