No. Doesn't make much sense and probably would add further cost for something most wouldn't use.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Hmmm... I think the whole routing part (not only voice prompts) is premium service... without activating (paying for license) all you can do is to browse maps.

(That's the reason I gave Gnuite a "please continue" to keep working on MaemoMapper few weeks ago... ;) )

You might not be a gadget guy, but I seriously suggest you pick up an ipod touch or iphone and see how you can easily scroll with your finger, even with a screen full of links. It can be done, and done elegantly. Hopefully you guys over in Nokia do it right.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Think Nokia just bought some tourist maps with hefty price, so would expect them to try get some revenue with them :)

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

That's wonderful news! Nokia, would you please make CR-86 available for sale outside of the navkit now? I have money. You like money, yes? I will give you money.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Any more information of OS2008 ?

Whats difference to OS2007 and screen shots? :)

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

@phi: by not being a gadget guy I mean that I haven't been playing with all the mobile devices with hardware qwerty kb out there, like the people who design such things at Nokia do. I do play with the iPhone / iPod Touch and of course the people in charge of designing the tablet Ui have plaid even more.

I have no hardware / UI design responsibilities and this is why I can be so explicitly dumb about this. My only point in the previous post was that scrolling efficiently web pages shouldn't rely ultimately on hardware keys (i.e. dpad) but on the touchscreen interface itself. The Hildon project is working on these issues, but the Hildon 2 that comes with Chinook/OS2008 hasn't got all the improvements yet.

Thanks for your input Reg... http://www.clicksmilies.com/auswahl/ernaehrung004.gif

... so I guess those of us who already paid $129 for Navicore are stuck with a limited distribution that hasn't had (and pro'ly wont have) any upgrades or sorely needed improvements.

The implication at the N800's intro was that Navicore was the direction Nokia was going with map software. All the press kits had screen shots showing a Navicore product....

Were we led down a dead end street?

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

What I want to know is the same old question. I know, it's an internet tablet. It's not a PDA. But will it provide enough minimal PDA functions, like audibly reminding me of my appointments, that it can be the only device I have to carry?

Better yet, could it turn out to live up to its potential as a general purpose, pocketable computer? That's what I'm really looking for: something that's not just cool, but actually usable. And useful.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Hmmm....me not likey the single tiny mini-SD slot.
I rather enjoy having several different WMs/firmwares all ready to go into the internal slot on separate SDHC cards.
Oh I'm sure it will be just a matter of time before someone hacks the default firmware to boot from that external mini-SD but the current capacity of mini-SD is, what? 4GB now? Why is Nokia going from a 16+ GB storage capacity system to only 4GB? Boy, that GPS chip and keyboard must really eat up space...not. I guess they sacrificed dual SDHC slots to trim off that 1 CM they made up in total size.
Shame. N800 is for hardcore hackers, N810 is for....everyone else? Too bad no one else really buys Nokia's Internet Tablets and really uses them on a daily basis except for the hackers out there.
My N95 with 4GB micro-SD and built-in aGPS works just fine.
I guess the N810 is being used internally inside Nokia to justify their recent purchase of a big GPS navigation company.
I'll hold off for the Wi-Max-enabled N900.

Citrix!!!!!!!!!!!

How do you run Citrix on the N800??????

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

That actually sounds like a very good feature. I've never seen anything like that and thus obviously not tried it, but it _sounds_ like something that could be of great help.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Short version: You don't.

Long version: You use rdesktop or VNC to another box running a Citrix client.

Best version: You lobby Citrix to release an IT OS 2008 ICA client.

Woo Hoo!

I found this on Wayfarers site and answered my own question...

Best version: You lobby Nokia to pay Citrix to release an IT OS 2008 ICA client, while attempting to convince them that there's more than 5 people that would be interested in using it.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Is there WidSets client available for IT?

Any rumours?

Can we use the bigger bp 6l in the n800? ANd lack of gps should give us more juice compared to the n810... right??

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

I am glad there is someone else here that agrees with me on Citrix!!!

Nokia - please pay Citrix to get this done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

What GPS chipset does the N810 use? Does it allow for assisted GPS when in range of the internet, for quicker satellite fix?

Does it still have the FM chip, because I've heard it doesn't.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Anyone know what wi-fi chipset is in the 810? would it be the same one for the 800? If not, anyone know if the offical driver will be made public this time around?

Also, has anyone seen images of the 810's internals yet? I remeber the 800 was out not too long after it was released, even though the 810 hasn't offically been released, I figured someone would have cracked the demo ones open!:rolleyes:


Thanks

PS Like the new look... can't wait to get one...

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Um, I don't agree with you on Citrix, but I just wanted to tell you how to make it happen. You're going to need a *lot* of people asking for it though, and I just don't see that happening.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

What is the version of MicroB browser on N810?

(On N800, it is 0.0.8-3 and can be found in Application manager-->Show Installed Applications)

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

RE: From what I understand, AGPS relies on cell tower communication not wifi..so since the N810 is not a phone..it will not allow for AGPS

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Not quite what I meant by assisted GPS though there are two different technologies that I've heard referred to in this manner. One is that which you mentioned, but its also possible for quite a few GPS units to download the ephemeris data from the internet, in order to speed up the satellite fix. IE, it'd make it akin to a hot start every time you connect, giving a fix in the order of a few seconds, rather than the 30-60 seconds it generally takes for a cold start. Also, this would help because the satellite data that you download means that you wouldn't have to have great signal in order to get that fix, if you've got a weaker signal it will still be able to lock on. (The ephemeris data downloading via satellite requires you to have I believe 5 satellites available, and after its downloaded I think you can work with 3, or something along those lines.)

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Here's a question (hope it hasn't been answered yet): will Nokia offer a developer discount program like they did for the N800? That's probably the only way I'll get one, and I'd like to assure that Maemo Mapper works on the N810, even if it's made obsolete by built-in mapping applications....

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

My understanding is there is no built in mapping application. It was an additional purchase. Perhaps I read incorrectly somewhere, but this confused me, why put the hardware in if your not providing the software.

Good luck on the free one, I doubt they would provide one to a rogue like myself :cool: (Let be clear though, I am not a developer, I am a hack!, I am not worthy to be in the same category :D )

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

You, sir, should be a sure thing. Almost makes me feel guilty for applying. Almost. :D

http://maemo.org/news/announcements/...192708879.html

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Hardly, Maemo Mapper still has satellite imagery (a feature not found anywhere else) and free voice navigation.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Maemo Mapper is a very great software but its use of Google Maps and navigation directions is not very official/legal :
"The imagery is copyrighted and may not be copied, even if modified or merged with other data or software."

This is why I actively support OpenStreetMap a least for having mapping data ; I've not the material to contribute to OpenAerialMap !

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

@gnuite, they should give you a free unit, not a discounted one.
Maybe the included maps could be used by maemo mapper (thouh I doubt that'll be the case).

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

That is exactly why Maemo Mapper uses OpenStreetMap as the default map provider. Users can enter other map sources, but that is of course up to them.

Where I live, OSM is actually more detailed than Google Maps, so little reason to switch ;)

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Maybe you missed my post few weeks back where I gave "go ahead" signal to keep developing MaemoMapper... The maps application with routing features will not be free, thus there is room for free MaemoMapper sofware... ;)

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

My question about the 810 is will I be able to stream Sirius over wifi using the browser. The problem on the 800 seems to be that there is nothing on the 800 that can feed the stream to a media player. I get all the way to the end but nothing plays because the player is not accessed with the feed.

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Could someone with either an N810 or the N800 with the new (2008) flash image post the following please? This assumes you have a working terminal - from the Nokia website it looked as though this comes installed.

I'm a bit surprised no-one's posted this information yet - is there some problem (legal? or is no-one able to get a terminal/ssh session working?).

Out put of dmesg as soon as possible after boot (i.e. as soon as the desktop comes up)
e.g. "dmesg > dmesg.txt"

Contents of /sys filesystem
e.g. "find /sys/ > sys_contents.txt

List of kernel modules
e.g. "find /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/ > kernel_module_list.txt"

List of DSP modules
e.g. "find /lib/dsp/modules/ > dsp_module_list.txt"

Thanks,


Simon

Re: Post your N810 questions here
 

Here you go... the "sys_contents" operation failed due to too big file size or something?

EDIT: These are on N800 having OS2008.

Damn Mara. Beat me to the punch ;)
