The problem is the same as always - Nokia does not want to get into the telco negotiation business with the tablets. They...

Re: Conky: The ultimate system monitor.
Actually, I tend to think that it just means that the porting is really easy with the internet tablets, but the scripting is still the same. Honestly, not many systems can say, that it is easier to...

Re: N810 Specs from Nokia Site
