Re: Nokia vs. Apple Patent Lawsuits and Countersuits

If you want to get really angry try reading the 'Background' section starting on page 10. It's a hilariously partial account of the development of smartphones claiming all glory for Apple, and...

Re: Nokia vs. Apple Patent Lawsuits and Countersuits

Apple responded to Nokia's claims and counterclaimed late last month (thanks Groklaw):

Re: License of flash/rom images

Yes, this is correct. See GPL v2 (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.txt) section 2. If being part of a Linux distribution meant having to be GPLv2, then (for example) the Apache Web Server could...

Re: Apple wants to send the Gizmodo guys to jail

There are local 'shield' laws in most states, but no federal law. In general they're drafted broadly enough to cover professional bloggers. For example the California example protects:

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

For me the accuracy of the fix as reported on the GPS Status screen has gone from averaging 20-30yds before the update to 5-10yds after it.

Re: Sygic Mobile maps for Maemo [problems]

For me the changed settings don't fix the lag and Ovi Maps (and Google Maps) do both lag with the internal GPS... Sometimes the internal GPS works fine, and others it lags, regardless of what program...

Re: Sygic Mobile maps for Maemo [problems]

In connection with the 'lag' problem that seems to happen intermittently using N900 internal GPS with Sygic, I thought I'd just record that I have been using Sygic with a Nokia LD-3W wireless GPS...

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

My experience this morning was that it did indeed start out like that, but that it improved over the course of five minutes. Even at its worst it allowed navigation within a small village. My guess...

Re: New N900 firmware 3.2010.02-8 released today (16 Feb)

Apologies for not reading the whole thread, but as a UK user who got their update OTA on Tuesday (in Truro, Cornwall) I thought I'd check in.

Re: shop.nokia.co.uk cancelled my order - UK

For those reordering - why do you think that the same problem wont occur when they next come to authorise your payment? Have Nokia UK said they will do it differently, or are you just optimists? :)

Re: OPK: N900 deliveries have now started!!

I have had all the above problems with shop.nokia.co.uk in the last week or two. I think they are just artifacts of its being overloaded with requests.
