I love the OS2008. I've only had my N800 for a few months and loved it. There wasn't too much I didn't like about OS2007, but now they've made a great thing awsome.

Visually it's way better! Larger icons make more finger friendly. Everything seems to be a little more faster especially the web browser.

So far I've installed:

Canola 2
Mplayer
Camera
Skype
MaemoSweeper
Battle Gweled
CrazyParking

All of them installed with ease and seem to work pretty good. Canola2 is very nice although I haven't tried to add cover art yet. The photos sections is awsome!

My only issues that I have noticed with OS2008 so far are:

- When I use Mplayer the audio is off a bit from the video when using DivX. I started a post on this already. This kind of sucks because I use my N800 a lot for Divx movies.

- It seems when book marking multiple webpages it will use te same logo for all the bookmarks. I booked marked a local newpaper here and their bookmark was their logo. I then went on to book mark several other pages. When I went back to check them all, they all had the same logo, the newspaper one because I did that one first. So I deleted them all and started over. I found when you bookmarked a page I then closed the web browser, opened it again and then bookmarked a different page. This seemed to work and fix the problem. Not a big deal until you've put in a lot of bookmarks and have to go back and delete them all.

- On OS2007 whenever I pushed a text field with my finger it went to the large keyboard, now it goes to the little keyboard and I have to push the directional pad for it to go to the big keyboard. I've played with the settings and nothing has changed. Not a big deal for me though.

- Although this is not really a problem and more of a pet peeve and it was the same on OS2007, I don't know why the screen comes on when charging the unit when it is turned off. Even though it set to black, the screen is still on and using power. Wouldn't it charge faster if the screen was off?


I know what you mean. There are always a few losers out there that feel they need to be little everyone out there with a question.

" GeneralAntilles" seems to do this in every post. He mentions about wasting his time a lot. If thats the case then why does he always leave smart *** replies? Not everyone is well versed in this stuff and everyone is a newbie at some point. Not everyone literally "sleeps" with their N800 like he does.

So "GeneralAntilles " don't waste "OUR" time with your childish dribble. If you want to answer a question, then go ahead. If not, simply go onto the next.

Just my 2 cents.
