Well, since it has aGPS and 3D accelerometers, a "digital compass" is nothing more than a simple app.

Probably a good practice app for a new developer.

Nokia also recommends Windows! Why is there no Windows, i can't use all my super special apps and i don't want to learn another OS just to make phone calls! If i don't see a desktop wallpaper of a green meadow under a blue sky, i'm so going to return this n900!
