yeah..check it out

there is a lot of discussion on what to do with n900 or maemo 5..and the best thing is, a lot of developer join the discussion too.

some of the topic i like -> n64 emu, slr style control over n900 camera, topic about games/apps to be ported to n900 etc

and can join with the n900 enthusiast community on all over the world

iPhone is too crippled/restricted for me. I'll be waiting for N900 or SE Xperia X10 (Rachael) ... lightyears ahead of iPhone smile.gif

If you prefer the formfactor of iPhone or the capacitive touch screen.. wait for SE to announce the X10 on Nov 3 first (superior hardware specs and "non-closed" Android OS smile.gif )

yeapp... at first it was n900 or xperia 2 for me.. but then xperia 2 was disappointing in every aspect..
so now it's maemo vs Xperia X10.. but then x10 is coming out next year or so.. so n900 for me now..

The FM receiver app for N900 seems to be working nicely now:

Btw, I really hope at least the full specs and initial reviews for SE X10 appear early next month (Nov)... so I can make my decision biggrin.gif

Maybe you should look at motorola driod. It looks good too.


Added on October 31, 2009, 10:08 pmFeel the need for some update since there has been a slow down on interest. Well hope the following videos would jack up the anticipation.

Some comment



Weight with WII



Gaming with cool controller. Awesome feature is, now it can accept 2 player controller input.



Fennec, another better breakthrough browser. Much Touchscreen friendly.



Virtual screen keyboard



Now.. you anticipating it more?

^ Hell yeah now really wanting it more drool.gif
Some other tidbits for all. Its the FM radio ui on N900 rclxms.gif
As all of us know that Nokia was so smart in providing the fm receiver n transmitter on N900 but didn't provide the app to use it. Luckily the community take the matter into their own hand and develop an app for that

I have bought an N800, and let me tell you that the Maemo platform is crap for a very simple reason: no binary stability !!

What I mean is that each new release of the OS changes system libraries and breaks a non trivial percentage of existing applications. Many applications developed for the N770 won't run on the N800 due to ABI library differences. My N800 went through several OS updates, and each time this crashed at least one of the installed apps I had.

Also some applications you find on the web won't work because their author didn't want to rebuild them for the new hotness (the fussiness of the SDK might also be responsible for this).

At least Android doesn't have this problem. That's probably why they have more than 10000 apps on Market, while Maemo has been in existence for far more longer and probably doesn't have one tenth of this number available. So much for the "ease of porting existing apps" stuff...

if the maemo doesn't have that many developers supporting apps for it, it may as well be its downfall. for sure.

Well it depends on how you perceive. The inverse can be found Here

n900 is much like a pc. Very much it's easier to port from PC application to this midget. If you're talking about available apps, well nokia has went ahead with Qik if not mistaken. This means app from symbian can be ported to maemo. n800 and below are device which didn't grasp much of the market due to the nature of the tablet device which did not come with telephony feature. Anyhow, Andriods are much easier to develop as compared to maemo. But then again, if you're a power user, N900 should put you at the edge.

All I can say this phone is not for the faint heart. It's much complex as it seems.

Fennec beta walkthrough. The browser is good, easy to move about. But I still prefer the original mozilla browser preloaded in the device. The gesture zoom and kinetic scrolling is just awesome than this app. But then again this have add-on support. Yes you hear me add-on, this app can support add-on similar to firefox which can add-on plug-in. Anyhow, here's the video. Enjoy.
