For Sale: N800 + 2GB card + Bluetooth Keyboard (NJ/NY or shipped)

I've got a lightly used N800 which I can repack in the original box. I'm including a 2GB SD card and a Freedom Mini wireless bluetooth keyboard.

Re: Bloomberg Terminal like s/w for NITs

How about someone who coded for a Bloomberg Terminal.

There's no way possible, period, to grab information from the bloomberg website, or any website, and provide what the terminal provides. ...

Re: Pidgin or RTCOMM?

Not that Pidgin is bad or anything, but RTCOMM's integration into the IT is freakin superb.

One thing I'd love to see with RTCOMM is DirectIM support for AIM, for no other reason than it'd be...

Re: nokia - shame on you - maemo.org server is deadly slow

My posts on some threads (such as this one) are high on the vitriol, and on some others, they're not. It obviously depends on the subject. I'll praise some things to the heavens (MediaBox, the new...

Re: nokia - shame on you - maemo.org server is deadly slow

That's a fairly cheap thing to say... I've been using SuSE for years, and have never really felt a need to be disgruntled about it, or move on from it. Had SuSE done something like screw the Yast...

Re: nokia - shame on you - maemo.org server is deadly slow

I've only been a tablet user for about a year or so now... so yeah, the OS2008 was the only firmware issue I've had.

But even now, I can go to refresh my application manager catalog and still...

Re: nokia - shame on you - maemo.org server is deadly slow

Yeah, but, no.

Look at something like the Eee, which also runs Linux. The community around the device, which hasn't even been out a year, is close to rivaling (or even surpassing) the NIT...

Re: Cover art in Media Player?

Have you tried MediaBox? I've gotten it to do media covers... unfortunately it has kinetic scrolling, which you don't seem to like. :)

Ah the joys of watching the battery meter go from Full down to 2 out of 7 bars. :)

Re: os2008 on n800: still a beta

That's a tad pedantic... it's definitely a bug and it definitely has destroyed my files...

On the other hand, I'm very grateful to Nokia for fixing the bug so that it only destroys my files and...

Re: Canola2 Now Out!

Out of curiosity, why don't you use the crawler that's on the system, or give us an option to disable the system crawler in favor of your crawler?

Does anyone know if this version of Canola has it's own crawler like the old version did? And does it still require you to change settings thru a web interface?

If so... meh..

Maybe those N-Series staffers could work on making phones that aren't buggy rather than... whatever that was.

Re: Opera for OS2008?

Re: Opera for OS2008?

So in the meantime, we should suffer with a browser that crashes more than the old one? A browser that's slower than the old one?

Some improvement.
