Will Anna be delayed with a branded phone ?

Hi All

If `Anna` is a software upgrade rather than a firmware upgrade will it be saddled with the usual delays occuring when branded phones i.e Vodafone have to wait for said brand to check\test software prior to release or will it be issued across the board at the same time ?

Thanks

It is a firmware upgrade, and operator variants come after, so called, "vanilla" language variants (and for some operator variants, they're not necessarily released at all, if the operators decide they don't want them).

This release is such a biggie I wouldn't expect any operators to ignore it.

I agree that the operators' releases will be sometime after the vanilla releases though, exactly the reason I got my N8 direct from Nokia.

I wonder if Anna will include Ovi Store?
