Please can we get an update.. This really should be a non-issue.. It's
preventing UK users re-flashing their phones when they become defective,
leaving them with the prospect of installing PR1.2 "downgrading" so they can
upgrade to PR1.3.. something which is never recommended... or installing the
Global PR1.3 version..

My phone is playing funny guys so I need to update the phone's software using
the Flasher.

As a Nokia user; I believe that this really should be a non-issue for the UK
nokia users..

I think you might've helped before when PR1.2 wasn't available for download via
tablets-dev.. It's been 4 months since PR1.3 was released via FOTA and
Ovi/PC-Suite, yet the UK version is the only one STILL not available for
download on tablets-dev.nokia.com.. Please can this get added so the UK user
base can re-install their firmware in warranty-protecting fashion rather than
having to "debrand" their phone to the global version.. 

This is blatant bias against the UK.. 4 months delay is simply not cool..

Well thanks to whoever finally got the UK image uploaded (dwilms?), I guess we
can close this bug now.

attention and she chased it up! Good job!
