Re: Troubling N900 release progress
No. MeeGo (.com) isn't a consumer-oriented product - it can't include MP3 codecs for legal reasons, too (just like Ubuntu). It might be installable, but not in there out of the box. This pretty much...

Re: is there a fault with nokia n900 gps ?
You can rest assured that I do not take decisions to spend money lightly. I keep the GSM radio off unless I need it, the same for GPS radio. I gave the n900 onboard GPS a fair shot, and with the GSM...

Re: How will meego pull it off
I think that particular video of the tablet is actually very nice. Since they're showing the video already, the "alpha" part pretty much probably means that the UI is ready, so I don't expect it to...

As much as I like the N900 and Maemo (and with the full knowledge that I bought a little computer and not just a phone), I would like to see the phone be a little easier to use. I sometimes feel...

Re: Announcing the Maemo Brainstorm 2010
One big improvement would be for Nokia to communicate in some kind of official capacity.
I think many people here feel a bit abandoned by Nokia.
A couple of examples:.

This is not entirely correct. In Maemo whenever there was a question about something that has not been defined by specific Maemo guidelines, Debian was almost invariably the fallback.

Re: Maemo + Moblin = MeeGo
Not really. It works pretty much in the same way as .deb, with YUM repositories doing the same job as APT repositories.
The main difference is that it's slightly easier to build a .rpm package...

Re: Maemo + Moblin = MeeGo
User perspective: When I bought my n900 I knew it was going to be superseded by a new phone in less than a year. All phones will. Period.
Nokia was quite clear about the n900 being "step 4 of 5"....

If Nokia is smart it creates an N900 built of the first MeeGo images. Many enthousiasts among us will try it and give it a free beta test. That way they can polish things up for their first real...
