First thing is make sure you have the lastest firmware when you get the device. ~~Then enable the Maemo Extras repo in App Manager~~ (not necessary). After that, you will be able to download all kinds of fun stuff from maemo.org using one-click.

You can skip step 2. .install files automatically enable (or add) the required repository. ;)

That those of us who bought the device were idiots.

Don't worry! Somewhere some police departments will need the WiMax for their projects and trade them for new N9x0.

Re: The Nokia N810 - WiMAX Edition

This ius truely an interesting decision. I can only wonder what will happen to th stock. WIMAX, while having some serious growing up problems, is not dead at this time. I personally have access to WIMAX in the Wash DC market and would love to have one. But when they say NOKIA is asking for all stock to be returned immediately, I can only say that there will be no "steal deals" as of yet.

I can only think that NOKIA will disable the WIMAX portion and just make them into standard n810's so as not to lose out on the inventory as a whole. I see NOKIA as deciding not to gamble that the WIMAX ( CLEAR.COM) system will mature fast enough to create a demand for the units and thus the WIMAX editions will be antiquated and still not sell is what I am thinking. So blow them out as N810 standards and cut their losses.

Or replace the WiMax with an HSPA module and sell them cheaply until the N900 comes out?

Won't happen, unfortunately.
