this n900 can poison anyone easily.. i just manage to poison my colleague the power of N900... hahahhahahah!

It's the raw pawa, what to do? But with the raw pawa is the come very danger (as my sifu used to say), as evidenced by many people bricking their N900s with installing stuff from devel (WARNING: devel is evil! :0 )

Plus the fact they have to learn to live with a landscape screen mini laptop with a phone strapped on (just like my old N-Gage was a crappy console with a phone glued to the side).

Hmm. I'm practically having fun every day tweaking some part of the N900. This is addictive, reminds me of the day I tweaked and tweaked and managed to make Compiz-Fusion run smoothly on Ubuntu and my EXTREMELY crappy Fujitsu laptop.

The smoothness of it then still smokes my Vista box today. And that's on a crappy video card that can barely play H264 mkvs.

Anyhows, the new kernel-config commands are schweet. Hope my N900 doesn't smoke itself to network death again this time. Running Titan's ULV profile. Staying clear of XLV and Starving after what happened the last time (though I'm not sure it's the kernel's fault to begin with).

As for Descent, it leaks memory and lags from time to time, but is otherwise great fun (fullscreen no cockpit mode decreases the ambience but makes sure I don't go blind squinting). Though I had to stop using bilinear and accelerometer controls just because they were screwing things up.

Oh, BTW, anybody here popped their USB port out yet? Seems like a serious issue over at Maemo.org.

man..i've converted to avi..but still..no luck..out of sync..the video and audio...video is lagging behind...

try super converter and use iphone setting. works like a charm for newbies. google for superconverter...

very impressed with N900...
but, i'm also addicted to GPS...seems like me patah kaki if not having a gps (currently using my gf's 5800 with garmin installed) if wanna go out of town...

is it really n900 can use garmin someday?
what is the best gps for gps now?
read the post that the best is ovi map...is ovi map need to pay for use it? i'm using hotlink, so is it will be charge my prepaid?
any comment from n900 expert n lover?

if no better gps for n900 for this entire year (2010), maybe i should just buy a 5800 then...huhuhu...owh damn! i love the phone (n900)...so damn sexy!

Would be great to have an app like this (available for Android), which allows adjustment of clock speed at runtime, there're also several profiles and failsafe settings, profiles are good for limiting the processing for different situation.
Example: If we know we would watch long hour video, might not be a good idea to run > 600Mhz which running at constant 100% CPU, higher risk of damaging the CPU. Probably just set it at max 550Mhz or 600Mhz.

As for the USB port issue, AFAIK, it only affected pre-production model, it should be fixed for Production models. Maybe they're some unlucky ones which still face this problem? No idea.

iphone setting uses AVI or MP4 format?

iphone using mp4 format

my whole office is now poisoned by me. small office only la lol

N900 GPS with Ovi positioning is the Fastest Positioning device i ever have.
thought need to access 3G / gprs . but i can get my position via Ovi less than 10Secs. too bad the navigating system of Ovi isnt that good

hope Tomtom or MapKing can be use on N900 later~

was using garmin / Asus and Samsung Omnia etc gps device before. just my 2 cents opinion~

Added on May 14, 2010, 3:35 pmOvi map is free to download. but its better you download the wholeMap from Ovi.
if got no map in your N900, it will access Gprs/2G/3G to download the map.
if no dataplan you will cry for the Data Bill~
