Wonder if this one wasn't seeded to developers first? I assume MR has a developer account, if the seed goes to other testers first that could explain why MR doesn't know about it as fast.
Anyone able to give the version information for Radeon 6760M and 6970M?
*shrugs* Macrumors always seems to be slow on the uptake hence I tend to hang out at TheVerge, Neowin, Arstechnica etc. a lot more these days - the forum contributors seem to be of a higher quality as well.

Mail seems to be stuffed in 10.8.1 if you have network accounts - launching it deletes your contacts. Anyone seen this fixed in 10.8.2?

A new build is out on AppleSeed: 12C53.
I hope Apple releases the update officially soon, because I can't submit my app to the Mac App Store until they do (apparently apps built in Beta versions aren't allowed).

it is also available to developers now.
but i noticed something a bit strange.
the delta update is bigger than the combo! why?

Not sure. The descriptions of both updates sound about the same. Both can be installed over a previous build of 10.8.2 beta etc.
Looks like the combo is bigger, they just have the wrong size listed for it on the download page.
