automatic reminder of 'software update' when installing a new build

Visited a friend, and helped him install a new build in his XO. The first time the new build completed booting, he was presented with an action bar (to request "software update") near the top of Home View. It so happened that the XO had not automatically connected to my friend's wireless AP -

Re: New Browse ready for Emilianio?

Howdy, The back (left arrow) and forward (right arrow) and stop/resume buttons don't work in Browse 101 on 767. Also get 'page not found' for perfectly good addresses. ¡Humbug! genesee -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/New-Browse-ready-for-Emilianio--tp1

Auto-suspend and Presence Service

In 9.1.0, auto-suspend is going to be on by default, which we estimate will roughly triple our battery life. We're working on fixing all the bugs that would prevent that. One of them is not strictly a bug -- it's a performance issue. The Presence Service sends packets frequently, for tracking th
