    ah here is the answer. I needed table of contents in my oreilly books and they did not work in the maemo fbreader. so I emailed fbreader directly and a developer gave me an updated version (12 something) that could read toc. He expressed his surprise that the n900 was still working on version 10 where 12 was the current stable version while 14 was the devel version. anyway I was able to map my keyboard to make it useful but lost both swipe on screen and the volume rocker changing function.

    too bad development on fbreader does not incorporate the latest stable version for arm as that can in fact read toc.

    Many people say that the N900 has reached it's end of life early.

    With Android and possibly Meego the N900 can't have a brighter future then it obviously have.

    As usual, thanks to all the Devs for supporting the n900 for all of us.

    It's amazing.

    I hope they'll publish what they've done to reverse engineer the 3g/phone controller.
    I hope to see a meego with 3g/phone too in the future or maybe a nice phone app for my Fedora 12 partition
    It's a pain in the *** that if you dual boot in something else than maemo the phone wont work:P
