Ofcourse the stupid old men at Nokiaboard will getting pissed of it. But instead of making more cool harmattan Nx devices that could have compete with blackberry they will start to patenttroll RIM instead.

Personally I would go for Blackberry even if its not running Linux. Atleast it runs Qt :) ]]> Alternatives mikecomputing http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84302 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84269&goto=newpost Mon, 14 May 2012 17:30:45 GMT GOOD NEWS GUY'S
Samsung and Intel have wittily enabled the platform to run Android applications as well. Using a special “Application Compatibility” layer, the Tizen platform, and the first tablet it powers can run virtually any app from the Google Play store.

I have uboot on my n900 from an earlier time when I was looking at Nitdroid on an sdcard. It's very important to me not to brick the phone or blow up my Maemo on the phone itself. As with Nitdroid, I just want to take a look at Mer and see how I like it.

When I power up with the slider open, I get the uboot screen, but my choices are Maemo5 (which works fine), or "Nitdroid" even though the sdcard has Mer on it.

I'm obviously missing something, but the more threads I read the more confused I'm getting! What do I need to do to get uboot to see my Mer card? ]]> Alternatives quixote http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84173 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84135&goto=newpost Tue, 08 May 2012 13:56:56 GMT http://thehandheldblog.com/2012/05/08/tizen-phone-demo/ http://thehandheldblog.com/2012/05/08/tizen-phone-demo/ ]]> Alternatives mick3_de http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84135 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84129&goto=newpost Tue, 08 May 2012 09:19:48 GMT Finally someone is interested in developing some open platform.

However, I have a problem: there doesn't seem to be any way to set alarms. This means I would have to reboot into Maemo at night, which I'd prefer not to do for this test. Is there an alarm system for Nemo?

Look at the video on the page (in english). Maybe B2G could run on N900/N9 ?

This would be a while until we see a real product hopefully Canonical pulled support for kubuntu to direct it's resources to a mobile platform? One can only hope. ]]> Alternatives Mike Fila http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=83748
