The problem is, I need it to fit in the device, as the original does. I don't want to have to carry around another piece

The definition I know has nothing to do with Asians. I live and grew up in a former big IBM town. Back in the 60's, when IBM had over 15,000 employees here, they were all called zipperheads implying that IBM unzipped their head, dumped in all the IBM propaganda, and zipped it back up. IBM was God around here.

Back to the original topic (BTW, my forum editor does have spell check):
If you use rtcom-beta-os2008 you don't need Pidgin. Yes it's beta, but it works flawlessly for me.

My N800 is my favorite toy (well, maybe my second favorite toy). It is exactly what I expected when I bought it, a Linux device that can be endlessly configured. I never grow bored with it. If you did your research you would have known what it was before you spent the money. Anybody who spends that much money without doing the research first is a fool.

Okay, I think what David is trying to say is that he doesn't like Diablo, but I'm not 100% sure.

I don't see the point of complaining about it and then coming and insulting everyone that would have or could have helped you through your problems, but hey, I'm only Linux geek, right? I'm not supposed to know about human interaction. :rolleyes:

Re: Diablo BLOWS
 

I looked at rtcom, didn't like it, and wasn't able to install it anyway. Too many dependencies. I did research, but there wasn't much available to me originally that I was aware of. Hindsight is 20-20. Like I have said, there are things that are nice on the NIT, and a lot that is missing. Unfortunately, as usual, no one device does it right. Had the Ipud an SD card, replaceable battery and flash, and wasn't married to Itunes, it would be about as close as you could get. I didn't buy one for those reasons, so one must weigh the plusses and minuses. The app store does give the Ipud a boost, though

Re: Diablo BLOWS
 

I came on to make my opinions of it known and express my frustration with yet another broken app. If you read the threads, you will see I only responded in kind to the GEEKS who beat their chests and began the insults to justify their self-worth.

As an update, I just did manage to get Pidgin working again. I downloaded it from the project site on my Laptop, moved the file to my networked UPNP drive, and installed it from there, and for whatever reason, it worked.

:rolls eyes, passes gas, sighs:

Hi,

My wife found this one funny.

No, I am not a homosexual but thank you for thinking I might be.

As for who started what, you were the one hurling personal insults first and others just defended themselves, including me.

Interesting thing, a forum.

David

Re: Diablo BLOWS
 

uh, no, but nice revisionist history. You must be a republican. READ the threads. I didn't come on here to insult people, but the kids who play on these things do, in between rounds of Half-life

Re: Diablo BLOWS
 

If you were, you probably wouldn't be his type anyway and he'd just be disappointed. :D

Re: Diablo BLOWS
 

Hi,

Just curious, are you able to get through one post without hurling an insult?

People might listen if you did not come off as the very thing you accuse others of.

You do not like Diablo, I think everyone got that in the first post.

You have spent the rest of the thread insuring the members here feel that way towards you also.

Is there a point to alienating the members here from your position or would you rather they share your position?

If it is the latter, you are going about it all wrong.

David

AGAIN, I responded in kind to nimrods. End of discussion
