Just installed.
Very easy and fast.
simple test results:
GSM works! audio call 
good, I didn't test how the receiver hears my voice.
WIFI got connected (but I 
had to install qad-keybord to set the passwd) but browser is unable to load any 
pages. I manually set the dns (with open dns) but it doesn't work; using th 
enumeric ip address it works!
That's all for now
