What does Harmattan have to do with N900 support considering that Harmattan ("Maemo6") is now MeeGo and will not be officially supported on N900?

Harmattan was not supposed to be MeeGo.. i do not know if that have changed lately. I was supposed to still be built on .deb.. as opposed to RPM as Meego will have.

When you are less lazy would you mind posting the links, I know I'm curious.

He's talking about a preview of qt mobility being in extras-devel. That is still far away from a preview of PR1.3 let alone an official announcement of PR1.3 coming to the N900.

In other words: Utterly useless.

Nokia has not officially pre-announced any of the firmware releases, so you're SOL if you're waiting for that.

Unfortunately that doesn't quite make his rather 'harsh' comment about that one linked post being "utterly useless" any less valid - one may even argue that it rather supports it. :)

oh dear god.
First link what i put here was bugs fixed after PR 1.2. Second link was because someone was asking WHO KONTTORI IS. I´m really getting angry around here. What kind of people i´m talking with?

Actually, you're right about the community targeted complaints. I ignored that for the better parts of OP's posting.

Syncing with Evolution does NOT work, despite the name SyncEvolution. But I guess it's too much too ask for Nokia to provide a decent simple way to quickly sync my two devices. I opened a thread about this problem and got 0 answers on that. Everybody seems content to use online services, install a webserver to run syncs through a 3d party app. Tried rsync as well, to no avail.

I'll take a look at your post.. sometimes they need bumping to reach a more knowledgable member to see.

I am not sure i agree to that.. yes, i am aware of Querty.. But he was generally pissed at everything. Little like you and me can get 03.00 after a friday night.

I think the community works well. A lot of issues have been and are solved within the community.

Have you made bug report to devel of syncevolution?
http://bit.ly/a3iVXs

And about Comments about Nokia providing support. Try Nokias official channels and if you are not happy then replace device with something that you are more happy with. If not possible then try to solve problem with people here (as it looks like you are trying) who are giving help for free and coding in their free-time.

.edit
Note to myself. Package search linking broken. Had to use bit.ly

@Slender

My reaction was meant for the claim that PR1.3 support was coming. As such I thought the linked post was utterly useless. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

@ AlMehdi

Would be greatly appreciated, if you are, in fact, in the know. Could serve as a nice illustration for community support in this thread too and on top of that, you'd have my long lasting gratitude :D

Edit: Bumping was something I deliberately avoided as the topic on Evolution had been discussed in quite a few threads already. From the other tech forums I hang out, I know that bumping can be quite annoying.
