Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900
I'm with you there; for various non-technical reasons (read: the wife won't switch), I'm stuck on T-Mobile. Not that I'm complaining about T-Mobile service, but "upgrading" to a phone that won't work...

Re: Security on N900
You could always nmap your phone. It's actually not a bad idea to do this from another machine to all the machines in your house (including phones, TVs, consoles, appliances, etc). BTW, I tried...

Re: This is real multitasking!
I was being facetious :) Before another "task" ("thread", "process", whatever it's called) can be run, the OS has to save the state of the current task (mostly CPU registers) to RAM so it can restore...

Re: Fedora based MeeGo = NoGo?

Re: Fedora based MeeGo = NoGo!
