Nice, it's probably Neil's work - i havent even noticed yet :)

Hmm i am running v51 for like 2 weeks now and i had quite many calls, but it 
always worked for me...

This looks suspicious. It should be < 1% normally and on my device it is. Can 
you use strace to check what it is doing (preferably after reboot)? Something 
like this:

	apt-get install strace
	ps -A | grep pulse
	strace -p 1234 (where 1234 is pid of pulseaudio)

Wifi works for me well - i tried at least 3 AP's, 2 of them WPA2 and one of 
them open.

Again for me it seems to work. After pressing button on the bottom bar 
keyboard is shown:

I had problems with rebuilding mqutim. Maybe i was missing some dependencies. 

The thing with Qt is that with every new version there n new regression and 
zero regressions fixed. It becomes quite tiresome, but i hope we will have 
some peace when we fix all the current regressions with Qt 4.8.3.
