thanks a lot. even a partially working timer system helps me worth many evenings

Actually, it's fully working now. Also added a second line to each button label so that I know what I'm typing:

It's presently non-functional, but I'm working on a hack to get the contact list to display in portrait mode. Right now clicking on "To" opens the contact window in landscape mode, and closing it opens the portrait version which doesn't accept events. Useless, but it gives me hope that something can be done.

[edit]
Interestingly enough, the screenshot doesn't accurately show what I see. There are no duplicating icons, and names are legible. Kinetic scrolling also works.

You shouldn't need to hack it. That dialog already supports portrait mode, as evidenced by the letters that will show on the right-hand side of the dialog when the N900 is in portrait mode in the phone application. Set the hildon.PORTRAIT_MODE_SUPPORT flag on "chooser" before .running it.

Thanks to qwerty12's hint, contacts now properly show in portrait mode!

As for direct link, ossi hasn't made a proper release yet because this is still a work in progress. You are more than welcome to clone the repo though. Failing that, its only one file, so you could probably do a right-click "save as" on the appropriate file in the repo.

Here's a patch that gets the buttons looking more like the ones in the phone app:

Unfortunately, I couldn't get the buttons themselves styled as they need to be in a GtkTable for that.
It's not perfect and it's questionable as to whether you'll wish to apply it. But who knows?

This application is an amazing idea and will probably make a lot of N900 users very happy. Sadly I have not idea how to help out but if I did I would be straight in there. The sooner this applicaiton is avaliable the better.

Great work guys! I am really impressed!

Looking at the screen shots gives me some hope
Looks like ossipena is doing something that Nokia should have done from day 1. If there is anyone from Nokia's R&D here, could you help these guys with the project by giving the sourcecode for the current portrait mode dialer or something similar so that the wheel doesn't have to be re-invented every time!

Wonderful work guys! All the best to you!
