Re: [Announce] - MaeMeeMo - A Meego/Nemo User Interface for Maemo5- Now With Deb Package

Thanks for this great looking theme!

I appear to have configured this with reasonable success using the Deb package via apt-get install, but have just one annoying issue I have been too dumb to...

Re: N9 not coming to the UK on contract - Nokia, you bunch of bell-end's!

Elop is like a matador, inflicting increasingly harmful wounds deep into the heart of Nokia like an already fatally wounded, once majestic beast.

It makes me so sad. What I don't understand is...

Re: [Mockup] Hildon Redesign

It's not unreasonable for designers to offer great designs without the ability to code and for coders to write clever code without any design skills.

Put the two together and...

Re: I am building an SMS & Call Blocker. How many of you would want an app like this?

Hi Power, I just want to make it clear that when I was asking for the ability to reject unknown/withheld numbers, I meant calls where there is no number shown on the phone, not numbers which do show,...

Re: N9: It's finally here

My two cents.

The N9 looks like a potential new phone for my wife who currently uses an N8. I can't see it replacing my N900, no way. But then I suppose my wife would miss the HDMI out which she...

Re: I am building an SMS & Call Blocker. How many of you would want an app like this?

Thank you for looking at this Power. I've tried most of the call blocker programs in the repos and you're right, none of them are perfect.

I get on quite well with Crochiks MyContacts, but...

Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

Thumbs up for the convex screen. Fingers down throat for the lame iphonesque 'It's just a grid of bloody shortcuts!' homescreen.

One of my fave things about Maemo 5 is the fully configurable...

Re: N9 hits FCC??? Nokia N9 Teaser Video

Okay, so re-post this photo having shopped the N900 for another phone and demonstrate your point.

Re: Nokia sends E7 and WP7 handsets to developers

a "Nokia WP7 device" just as soon as it's available

Ahh. I need to read the source before posting. Naughty, naughty!

Re: Nokia sends E7 and WP7 handsets to developers

If it's a Nokia WP7 phone, that makes Elop look a complete liar for saying that the decision had not been made until the Thursday before MWC.

Re: Rumor: N9 to have 1.2Ghz Atom

From a marketing point of view, there is some merit in creating a flagship phone branded with an Intel CPU having a high clock speed. To stay in the game now, it's not about how good a phone is,...

Re: GRAND FINAL!!!! VOTE NOW!!. Fone Arena Smartphone Championship - N900 FTW!

Sadly, I think it's just an indication that your average Samsung Galaxy S user hasn't worked out how to submit multiple votes. Sigh.

Re: GRAND FINAL!!!! VOTE NOW!!. Fone Arena Smartphone Championship - N900 FTW!

Re: Fone Arena Smartphone Championship - N900 FTW!

Although I'd like the N900 to win this poll, it's too easy to vote again by disconnecting from 3G/GPRS, clearing browsing history, cache & cookies in MicroB, then reloading the poll page.
