Re: A-list applications for N900 - what do you recommend?

Nobody's mentioned "Flashlight applet" so far. It is far superior to liqtorch. As far as I can tell liqtorch just makes the screen white, while the flashlight applet actually turns on the camera...

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)

Re: N900 in Canada (Toronto)

Got my credit card charge from mobilecityonline. The US$689.94 was charged as CDN$750.37. Then there was $97.26 duties/taxes on top of that. So ordering from mobilecityonline ends up costing just...

Re: N900 in Canada (Toronto)

My N900 has arrived, and I also paid taxes on it. The taxes came to CDN$97.26. When the credit card charges show up, I'll post a final total price, including everything, in CDN$.

Re: N900 in Canada (Toronto)

Re: A special thank-you for the developers of Tear

@bunanson: From what I understand, different versions of the web-kit library have different levels of acid test compliance, due to the software being under active development. At this point, it's...

Re: A special thank-you for the developers of Tear

@YoDude: sorry about the poor instructions that I wrote. Now that I've given them a second look, it's clear how difficult they would be to follow. I'm normally pretty good at writing directions; I...

A special thank-you for the developers of Tear

About a year and a half ago, I purchased my N810. I think that the first web-site that I opened was reddit.com, still my favorite news site. It loaded quickly and displayed perfectly. Needless to...

There's an accessory called "Replug (http://www.replug.com/)" that allows your headphones to disconnect if they're yanked on, kind of like Apple's mag-safe connector. I started thinking about this...

Re: Font Problem in Wesnoth

A smooth, stable version with working music? I would love that. Until then, I'll try out the font fix and see how it goes.
