The changes are not so big and there will be full Fremantle SDK lot before actual product is in shops. You have time to adapt applications to some changes.
Even the UI looks new, application API's have not changed so much at all. As example, really big majority of Qt applications will run unmodified at all. With GTK applications, my experiences are very similar. There will be new API's like Clutter and OpenGL-ES2.0 but it is not mandatory to use them if you don't need them. With Qt, you can use Graphisview without OpenGL acceleration and it will just run faster in Fremantle with OpenGL-ES render. > Maybe they could be some not so important for the marketing, but > interesting for the developers details about the hardware reported (like > HD-camera).

With the SDK you can develop and test applications. After product release, Forum Nokia will have prototypes available in proto loan service to selected developers. That means that developers will have lot of time to write and test application with SDK and possibility to test it with prototypes before device is in shops. Camera is just typical example that is impossible to test without real device and just for this purpose we have the proto loan service.
