As you obviously know, the enter key is used to end a paragraph and start a new one. A well formatted post or reply will increase the chance of the poster getting helped.
At least that's what I think.

don't confuse Symbian development with Maemo. Symbian had a five year fead start, so its features are farther ahead.

It should mention using the Enter button when posting long posts; that is if the poster wants anyone to bother reading them.
PS: cb474, did you figure out than you can click on the thumbnails to view the pictures on Flickr

You're also totally misunderstanding the problem I was having with flicker, which had nothing to do with thumbnails.
Your post is just one more irrelevant potshot from the peanut gallery (ironically under the guise that you somehow have a better grasp of forum etiquette and propriety).
If you don' t like the thread ignore it.

I, obviously, can read and understand your (repetitive) paragraphs. In my experience though, a well formatted post will have a better and more helpful response.
I am just trying to save you frustration in the future. You heard my advice but you can do what you want.
Welcome to t.m.o.

I personally think that simply reflects writing (and thinking) that is extremely simplistic and has no organization other than a series of loosely connected thoughts, in no particular order.

I was actually being sarcastic in my last post, when I wrote the way you do with single sentence paragraphs. Apparently however writing the way you suggest did not help you understand my post any better. You don't even seem to understand the nature of the disagreement I had with other posters above, which makes your unsolicited advice completely irrelevant and condescending.
In any case, I don't really need suggestions from the self-appointed grammar police. And I continue to be astonished by the number of posters here who love to jump in and tell other people what they should and should not say or do. It's very obnoxious. If a thread doesn't interest me or I don't like the posts in it, I ignore it. I don't arrogantly leap into a thread that I have not been part of at all just to tell other people how to write.

Is their a shortcut for camera timer, cause sometimes taking a pic with myself in it, would be nice.

Do you mean in the N900 or the N86? I believe the N900 currently lacks a self-timer feature. This has been discussed above.

ideally, the N900 cam app grows up to become the N86 cam app plus smile recognition and touch focus. Nokia hasn't let on if it will, but the once hallowed Nseries label and Carl Zeiss optics scream for it.
