Indeed. Downloaded and installed. Now the security patch level is 5 January 2020, which, while still two moths behind, is a lot better than the previous May 2019 patch level.

WTF?

The critical bluetooth bug, CVE-2020-0022, was patched in *February* 2020.

New update, urging to hold off the V20 update due to a number of bugs. Oh well.

Edit: Notes on V20, so far:
  • None of the fingerprints I registered earlier worked. They were still there, just not recognized. I solved the issue by removing them and registering the same actual fingers again.
  • When unlocking the device, Planet Voice Assistant briefly shows a seemingly pointless (and harmless) notification.
Same notes here. The latter was 'fixed' by disabling the Planet Voice Assistant app, I don't like or use voice assistance anyway.

Too late for me... So far...
  • I'm getting spurious notifications from Gemini Voice Assistant (which I could disable) and Airmail (which I'm using) when unlocking the device. Meh...
  • Even with the same finger registered three times, my success rate is below usable. It seems I'll have to rely on a password for a while. Boo.[/s]
  • In flight mode, with the CoDi off, my Cosmo made it through the night on 3% battery (going from 73 to 70). That's on par with my Gemini. Yay!
  • Portrait mode screenshots still gets mangled, just differently. Sigh...
Still, if the battery life improvement remains consistent with last night, I'll still be glad I updated.

 Edit: A reboot fixed my fingerprint issue.

Same here: fingerprints needed a rescan, but working fine ever since. But Voice Assist pops up from time to time, even AutoNotification can't block it :/

When yet another fingerprint rescan didn't help, on a whim, I tried rebooting the device, and, for whatever reason, I seem to be getting a reasonable success rate again, and has thus been able to reinstate a not-silly-short password. Oh well... all good then, I suppose. Sorry for the noise.

It seems to be when I've charged my Cosmo and unplugged that then, the fingerprints don't get recognised.
If I then cleanly restart, fingerprints work again.

One big frustration is I could access my Business bank before using fingerprint at home, but now have to go in to office to retrieve s dongle because I have to log in with double authentification using the dongle once more.
I'm trying to pay self-employed tutors so they're not short, but what was once an easy process, us being affected at this inopportune time by the faulty update.
Guess I should have waited...
Still holding faith in my Planet Gemini and Cosmo, in the memory of dear old Psion.

Heh, looks like AstroGlide became AstroSlide

I thought "what the hell" and contributed. I can get a refund until May 1 anyway if I decide to back off, and now I still got the Early-bird price.

Always nice to see a PC update.....

Sounds like we're a few weeks out before the next OTA update for Cosmo.......

And another date to come regarding Linux progress.....

Well, some things to look forward to....

And hopefully, my leather pouch I ordered last fall will finally arrive soon....

I guess I can live a few weeks with V20 since it appears to be working.

Although, frankly, if they do not have the update ready by May 8, *and* bring security level to at least February 2020 level (to address  Bluefrag vulnerability) I'll ask Indiegogo to refund my Astroslide contribution, no matter that it's supposed to be lot cheaper than getting it at retail. It's become clear that long-term support is Planet's most problematic area.  Combined with the other threats (Brexit, second or third wave of COVID19), the risks are just starting to sound too great.

I more or less hoped V22 to land this week with the announcement...

3 weeks to go..
