Could you (or someone else) please test the latest image on a Wetab? 
That way i could be sure if it's a problem of the image or just my setup 
(Wetab, USB stick, whatever) that's causing this.
Does "final image" mean "Release image" or "Last RC"? I hope it's the 
latter, because there still has no proper testing been taking place.

Great, this is very important stuff! Will the dates for those meeting be 
posted so others can join? As quality coordinator, I might have a stake 
in these topics as well.

Can we please also please have a meeting within the PA team to go over 
open bugs and decide which ones should be fixed/worked around before 
release, like we did last time? Thanks!
