== New features in Final release (R2.0.0, w52 2009) ==
 
-
 
-
Eclipse Final release was done about one month AFTER final Fremantle 5.0 SDK and N900 releases.

Eclipse Integration components now support the latest Debian based Linuxes, Windows XP with SP3, Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard with x86/32bit architectures. Support for Windows 7 and Windows Vista with SP2 is only at beta level because their support is based on Cygwin 1.7 which has only beta version available.
 
-
 
-
Support for other than above listed operating systems has not been tested but should be possible if chosen operating system supports Eclipse IDE, if similar functionality for Host PC Connectivity is available for that operating system (for example most Linuxes like Fedora have that) and if operating system is able to run Maemo SDK Virtual Image (in practice supports either QEMU, VMWare or VirtualBox).
