Note though that "future" means Diablo or later, not Chinook. We will probably start offering this functionality for testing to the maemo community during the Diablo development cycle and we will push it as official (recommended on top of reflashing) when it's ready for mainstream usage. This is the current plan, and is an evolution of the improvements in the application manager and the reflashing process that are being development for Chinook. Chinook will offer as well backup of installed applications (see the enhancement request http://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647 ), but this means that your upgrade from the current IT OS to the Chinook version will be still done as today, reflashing and reinstalling manually. So yes, a lot of improvement is expected in the software update area but please be patient. I'm sorry if I gave the impression that upgrading via APT was something to come immediately (someone expected the last update to be working already with an APT alternative to reflashing).
