Reply soon cause im celebrating mannn !!!!

lol, in your dream I guess.

I mean for apps that support portrait mode, e.g. browser, call UI and other 3rd party apps, they now rotate to portrait mode better. Simple as that.

There will never be full portrait mode in Maemo 5.

Edit: Just to be clear yes I constantly use the transition.ini hack (radius=2, angle=0) and also swappolube tweak. But I did so in PR1.2 too. So it should be apple to apple.

Good thing Nokia is all about the open-source software, right? Oh sorry, right--I was once corrected on that, it's not about the software being open, it's about the open-source DEVELOPMENT process being open, right? Good thing you have THAT. ...er, wait, no. :)

True, but you dont get the problems if other poeple install it and report here ;)

There you go! Going on about community fixing its own problems! Why can't you just be happy with Nokia lording over your device's firmware images and closed bits and go write some apps? ;)

Ups, forgot the prefix zero,.. so it's 0.5.1.2 release precisely :D

Sooooo... to the point, what's Maemo's excuse for lagging behind Palm's WebOS for polish and completeness then?

What about portrait virtual keyboard did Nokia finally realise this is a feature that alot of people want. Not having protrait keyboard is the only thing i cant stand about this phone. I mean what the point of having a virtual keyboard in landscape mode, I might as well slide the screen and type on the physical keyboard, its more responsive. Having a virtual keyboard in landscape seem redudant to me, but then again I do use it. Guess I cant have everything.

Re: Firmware 1.3 on its way????

Just had this email today from nokia....i personaly think it is a joke and i will not use the tweak plugin as all that does is trick the site into thinking i have flash 10.1....anyway here is the reply i got regarding flash 10.1

Thank you for your reply.

We apologize for the delay in responding to your e-mail.

In response to your inquiry about the Flash 10.1, we would like to inform you that there is an upcoming update for the Nokia N900 and that is PR 1.3. However, there is no assurance yet if it will be 10.1 on the PR 1.3 flash version of N900. We recommend that you download and install the Tweak Flash plug-in version from the site below, while waiting for the final application from Nokia for N900.
