Re: Gary Birkett (aka lcuk) RIP

Terribly sad news.

I remember meeting Gary first time in the first Maemo Summit in Berlin. Jussi Mäkinen was talking with him and asked me to come over. It took me about 30 seconds to figure out...

Re: And where is the people from Nokia who worked on Maemo and Meego?

No, it's certainly not irrelevant in the future. It is just as relevant as ever. It should actually create a more level playing ground where the best UX would win, not the one that has the largest...

Re: And where is the people from Nokia who worked on Maemo and Meego?

As a Nokian working for Meego (for a long time now, as some might remember), I understand the ecosystem thingy painfully well. Qt is very cool, QML is very cool (hey, even I was able to build an app...

Re: Next Nokia exec to resign

I'm sure Jussi will be flattered to be listed as a Nokia exec. ;)

Re: Anssi Vanjoki says using Android is like peeing in your pants for warmth

I think Anssi - love his choice of wording btw - is fairly right. He of course means mostly manufacturers, not the end users. Especially if Google goes through with their purpoted plans with 3.0...

Re: How do you use multitasking in N900?

Hey, I'm a member too. ;)

I use multitasking to keep track of what I'm currently doing. Sometimes I open apps or browser windows to new windows even though I do not go to them right away. They're...

Re: Is the N900 ever going to be a polished product?

It's not exactly trivial to come up with a good solution for this.

The solution you were hinting to in your other posting doesn't really scale up to be a system-wide solution.

Basically, if...

Re: [Council] Nokia response to MyNokia subscription in PR1.2

It doesn't exist from Nokia. At least I haven't heard of it.

Re: [Council] Nokia response to MyNokia subscription in PR1.2

I guess most people are aware of this already, but MyNokia is something that is not only Meego-specific but rather appears also in Symbian devices. In multiple forms, but still. So you can probably...

Re: FIFA Schedule suddenly installed by itself?

I'm pretty sure nobody in Meego has even thought of bulding such a system like this (the first post), yet alone designed and implemented and tested and integrated it into the sw release. Sounds...

Re: N900 NOT upgradeable to MeeGo

Sorry, I think Electrolind just quoted the blog post from Valtteri. He's not Valtteri.

Re: iPhone portrait mode

Well, you can, but the UI will be 90 degrees around. The buttons would remain just as pressable. The portrait thumbnail would actually look to be the right way round. :)

Dashboard has of course...

Re: Nokia N900 Phone "App" sucks! Why?

FWIW - and it probably isn't worth much - I was talking with the Call UI designer just the other day.

She was telling that the original design for call, for instance for the call history view was...

Re: Firmware PR 1.1 removes featurs in onscreen keyboard - why?

I think this refers to not something like Swype, but rather a change in the behaviour so that the letter is committed with the button up, not with the button down.

i.e. if you intended to press on...

Re: Am I missing the point????

I think that ... If something is very cool and useful to have on a mobile device, it won't remain unique to any device for very long. Generally the unique stuff is the not-so-useful stuff. :)

Re: I thought there was a firmware update this month

That question is a bit odd - I think there is no definite one-size-fits-all answer; then again "it depends" is also a boring answer. Transparency as such isn't good or bad. The question is about its...

Re: I think that Nokia rushed and released N900 with software that miss many functions

If "rushing" refers to getting it out: yes, each feature that gets implemented takes some time and resources.

Would you like your device earlier, and with less features, or later, with more...

Re: N900 is not primarily a phone ! Why people still don't get it?

Yes. It has phone capabilities. I don't think Nokia is saying that it is not a phone.

But it's a bit like saying that the N900 is a mp3 player.

Well, yes. It plays mp3's. In a ok manner.

No,...
