What to do with a spare N900
 
What to do? what to do?

What do I do with my N900?
I don't need to use it as a main phone. I have just done a reflash to stocker and now I'm going to install all the best hacking tools and chroot...

But what else can I do with it?

No android.

I'd like some other OS's but I can't really find anything new. Ubuntu was cool.

Place some Uranium bits next to the USB port and throw it in the nuclear reactor next to my school to see if it breaks down, or not...

You can just build your own reactor on the kitchen stove. No?

I have seen the ununtu, looks cool.
I think I should just hack the rectum out of everything I can!
I was just after other people's ideas of what are some good uses. I can't bare to part from the N900. I dont know what makes it so damn hard to part with!
I love it.

You could also turn it in a dlna/upnp media renderer with brisa or rygel to stream your media from your tablet, phone, whatever to your N900 connected to your amp and speakers (or the opposite) - not that I was able to make them work though :(
If you succeed let me know how to!

It's better if it's not your main phone. The fun has just started :)

Where can I get a copy of cordia from? I've looked and asked on the thread... :( it's eluding me.
