1. Yes, its running Maemo 5 Its a heavy phone though, heavier than the N95 i had. Will need to buy an extra battery because using the fun stuff kills the battery.
  2. Ali / that's a shame about the LCD. I'll see what SE phones are kicking around here.


  3. Thanks a lot Dan
    And Chris, congrats on the new phone!


  4. Aye, already looking for new candidates since my Nokia 5800 runs out of contract in May 2011


  5. Still a great phone. Gonna stick with the Hero until it gets the 2.1 update. I do need a Nokia aswell though.


  6. I'll just wait and see how Meamo 5 develops. Gonna stick with Nokia anyway though, the best brand for me.
  7. Well in 2011 Maemo 6 will have replaced 5. But have a look at maemo.org for what is possible at this moment.

    Will do, thanks. I'm all into Symbian at the moment so it's good to broaden the horizon.


  9. Symbian is a decent OS. A new version of Symbian is still on the roadmap. Its / will be opensource and that will help developers a lot to improve stuff fast.

    I like the smoothness of it, it's quite simple and stable (S60v5). Looking forward to a new one then.
  11. iPod touch and iPhone 3.1.3 update is out (230MB). Anyone tried it and like it?

    Got my N900 today. Amazing, amazing device. MSN, skype, etc integrates perfectly with your contacts and 'conversations'.

    Mediaplayer is amazing, i just installed FLAC support and it plays Apple lossless as well. Also you dont need WMP to sync your device. Just copy the files to the drive and it will be picked up automatically. I am using a foobar2000 plugin for this.

    The videoplayer is pretty good with common xvid files, although there is some frameskipping during complex scenes.

    The browser is pretty cool as well. Its a firefox port, the addon dialog is exactly the same and its actually possible to install Adblock Plus and other addons.

    I know Android and iPhone OS have more apps at the moment, but its incredible what already is available: Bittorrent clients, other mediaplayers, official firefox, remote control software and even AbiWord.[

    Games are a bit weak at the moment. Although there are some nice games available.



    If that's what can be done I'm shifting to a new platform. The iPod is way too limited for what it can do - everything is locked down and even if I did wanna try and create a good browser for it that doesn't crash like Safari, you've gotta buy the developer program stuff and I don't want that. Nah...I'm changing to Maemo.
  12. Well Android is much bigger. But maemo is a real nice playgarden for developers

    Speaking about developping:

    The program i was (again am) working on. Windows XP or higher and the .NET Framework 3.5 are required. Start time is on the long side because it downloads the u2start bootleg database.

    Its far from a handy program now, scanning and synchronising your bootleg collection with u2start works nice. The scanning supports multiple date formats. In the settings tab you can change it to what you use in your folder names.


    But the tagging is still under development. Now it adds these tags:

    Date
    Location
    Legname


    These are custom tags and are not useful for most people. Of course this will be adjusted in future releases.
