    My 770 randomly rebooted when I disconnected from Google Talk on the new 2006OS. Damn random reboots...

    Well, I downloaded it from the repository, and I don't have any ebooks loaded but it looks fine with the "readme" text shown - even portrait mode.

    What does "doesn't work" mean?

    It was basically showing "Loading"..then nothing.

    I uninstalled it and the other apps from the repository (themes and maemoblocks) then reinstalled fbreader and all was fine. Might just be some software conflict.

    I notice several things with the new version. I can finally set a New Zealand time zone! Thank you for that Nokia. They probably did it to shut me up.

    Also the upstroke capitalisation seems to be back to the way it originally was rather than the broken, fiddly version in the beta.

    Haven't really played with much else so far. Just trying to see if I can get NASA TV to stream so I can watch the shuttle launch later on.

    Can any graphic art gurus tell if the screenshot is an actual screenshot or if it has been photoshopped/gimped?
    Regardless, I am mildly disappointed if that is what the client is going to look like. I was hoping that the SIP support would just be a protocol plugin to the current VoIP client. I don't want to have to install yet another client with all the overhead and separation of contact lists, etc.

    In a similar line of thought, I am hoping that the ogg support gets merged seamlessly with the current media player rather than as a separate player (or mp3 support in the ogg player if I can remove the built in player).

    Anyone know how to enable a bluetooth keyboard under OS2006?
    I'm desperate!
    I didn't know that upgrading would lose the bluetooth plug-in!

    Something I've noticed: with the beta, I wasn't able to format my 1Gb MMC card ("card corrupted" or something like that), but it works perfectly with the "official" release. The only prtoblem: I haven't been able to rename the MMC card: it keeps labelled with "Memory Card". I'm going to reboot...
    And responsiveness (?) of the virtual keyboard is much better than with the beta, it works as with OS2005.
    Flashed for 10 minutes now, happy for 10 minutes :-)

    agreed on all counts, mwiktowy. Although I still have hope that a sip plugin will be provided for the current voip app. SIP is supposedly supported in the full desktop version of tapioca though I have yet to test it.

    On OS2005, if you set the brightness to the minimum, you will hear a disturbing "electrical" sound. (you have to be in a quite room to hear it. It's disturbing only if you are reading an ebook).

    Is this issue solved in 2006? (also, the minimal brightness is not so minimal in 2005. It would be good to set it lesser)

    I get the same error. I'm gonna try running it through Virtual PC and see what happens.
