I'd suggest to start a collaborative intense testing phase as soon as the 
images are available. Everyone with a device should test hell out of it.
A group of students has been trying out my tablet recently (they will be 
conducting usability tests with it) and still found quite a few problems, and 
I did not have the chance to systematically test recently.
