If you want to give the beta version a spin, you might have to visit the Nokia Beta Labs and can get yourself some pie! As this is a beta version and not the final update, usually developers try their hands on it, looking for bugs which can be looked into and polished out before a public release. If you are not a developer and still can’t resist getting a bite of that pie then you may want to get a spare phone upgraded instead of the one which is your main phone as these updates are usually riddled with bugs which might hamper your user experience.
