QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Dec 1 2010, 01:18 AM) root means the main or lowest bottom or etc. To become root just need install rootsh and when in x-terminal command type root thats all I see..thx a lot aspire~

The possibility is how far your imagination can go is what nokia N900 capable off. Games on the iphone i cant deny its the best now even with gyro sensor u imagine what mobile gaming is becoming. If uniqueness nokia N900 take the top spot and with so strong community support the possibility become unlimited. Nokia N900 i am still disappointed is lack of flash 10 or else its the best browser on mobile phone i ever experience. Tried Fruit Ninja so addictive too Hey everyone, I've been climbing da threads from v1(tat's alot alot of version  ) and gaining all da info that I should before getting this device..and saw this as the latest flash is not being supported..will it be a big downside for n900? and i saw everyone is talking avout da Nitdriod recently, I thought the bid attraction for n900 is about unique os maemo? and y it's like now getting m ore towards android? sorry if all these are silly questions.. thx a lot in advanced~

QUOTE(super_evil_alien @ Dec 2 2010, 05:17 PM) Maemo 5 supports Flash 9.4 Majority of the sites now requires users to have flash 10.1 supported browser to browse through flash content.However in real usage these sites don't exactly utilize flash 10.1 functions. There is a trick to make the sites recognize Maemo's flash 9.4 as flash 10.1.It's simple trick really you can watch youtube/facebook videos. About Android, No matter how good your OS is you always want to try out other OS in market.And some nerds here(me included) loves to take things to next level by installing Android in our devices & try to improve with out method.It's merely hobby.Some install NITDroid to use Android's apps & games. No matter how many mobile OS out there,Maemo is truly one of a kind which will never bore any hardcore users. Hmm..i see..thx alot alien.  So it's not too late for me to get this device right? coz since it's production is stop, have some kind of uneasiness feeling towards it..thou I know there is a huge community keep the ball rolling hot..

QUOTE(Dark_Angel85 @ Dec 19 2010, 09:26 AM) if you are using the 'chinese stroke method' i don't think i've heard of reports of major problems... but there are a few who reported that there are keyboard problems QUOTE(mashimarow @ Dec 19 2010, 10:07 AM) so far I didn't hear anyone try to solve the symbol problem nor the virtual keyboard, everyone seems happy with the english only input =.= Hmmm..i see..that's a bit of trade-off there..
