  Re: How much protection does the N810 need?
  
  I have the 2000 and it fits the N810 but it's loose. A simple foam pad holds it tight and I'll be slicing the foam open to store SD cards in.

  Re: can't navigate xterm
  
  Are you asking for a command to list the files, or saying the command you use isn't working?

  Re: POIs for Maemo Mapper
  
  Is POI a format? As far as I'm aware, and I work for a fairly large personal/in-car navigation company, POIs are things, not a format. GPX is a format. So saving it 'as a POI" doesn't make it clear...
