    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.

    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.

    Radio is fine.

    So far seems stable, only thing new from 328 is the key ghosting is back.
    Happy with it so far will know more after a week or so.

    Battery life seems slightly better
    Phone is quick, no problems with drop outs
    Memory remains fairly high
    Keyboard ghosting returns and improved

    Just wondering if any else has the problem that it keeps telling you have a new message, while there is none.

    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.

    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

    Check if they are 5.0 compatible. I am using Miro 2.0 and no issues thus far...

    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.

    And in overall, it feels more fluid.

    Until now, it's a winner for me

    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.

    Can anyone tell me if it will play multiple sounds at the same time please? I can't beleive it hasn't been done yet...

    Play an MP3 and wait for a notification. Does the music still pause while the notification sound plays?

    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!
