Re: cron jobs and suspend / power save mode

I understand the N800 can sound an alarm while turned off, but wouldn't anything more complex require the whole boot process? If this is the case would booting and shutting down every 15 minutes not...

Re: New Ari Jaaksi blog post (13 Feb 2007)

I agree with Milhouse. Buy a device for what it can do for you now. Not for what you will hope it will do in the future, that is just asking for disappointment.

Re: Anyone else have this n800 problem?

That has not happened to me. My advice is re-flash the device and if that doesn't work, exchange it. If you bought it online in may be worth it to contact Nokia first.

Re: Window Maker on N800 - WORKING watch video

I too fully support this. My question is would it be easier to port programs like Firefox with this setup? And if so then there is great need for something like this.
