Nokia has updated the Maemo 5 SDK to provide developers with the software delivered in the second software update to the Nokia N900 device (version 2.2009.51-1). The update provides features for Bluetooth technology and e-mail, as well as improved documentation that will be of interest to multimedia messaging service (MMS) developers.

The Maemo 5 SDK is designed to help developers create applications for Nokia devices based on Maemo 5, including the Nokia N900 device. The SDK includes all the tools developers need to write, test, compile, and package for distribution Maemo 5 software on a Linux-based computer. For developers who have already installed an earlier version of the SDK, the update can be obtained using a package-management tool in scratchbox.
