Re: Current Nokia N900 users I need your help.

I wouldn't say you need to be linux lover or developer, at least I'm neither and I do like my N900. It just really depends on what you want: a phone or a mobile computer in your pocket.

Re: Theory 1: only 30% of the cost of the N900 is "real" cost

These discussions always seem to end up with this argument from the OP. "Oh, you naive consumers/fanboys/etc who will buy anything at any price..."

The reality just is that we make our decisions:...

Re: Conversations Widget?

It tells you if you have new messages without looking into dashboard. Your decision if you find it useful, personally I have it on my desktop and find it a nice addition.

Anyway, try it yourself....

Re: N900 or N97 or wait?

When it comes to n900 vs n97 question, you should ask yourself if you want primarily a phone (n97) or mobile computer (n900).

I'm writin this with my n900 and absolutely love it. But phone...

Change character encoding in Xterm?

I understand that there is a bug made for Xterm settings, but that's all the information I was able to dig up here or from Google.

Is there any way to change the character encoding in terminal?...

Re: N900 in business environment

As long as your IT doesn't require provisioned devices (so they can force you to use certain security settings etc). This is a big dissapointement for me (though my decision is to live with it for...

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls

Yes, this sounds more logical. Just didn't think it would be possible to do this way.

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls

And for me, as an end user (and customer), the lack of that feature will mean I can't even use it, wanted or not. And apparently I'm not the only one.

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls

So as far as I understand, if the device isn't provisionable and your employer wants you to lock your phone to be able to sync with MfE (aka requiring the provisionalbe device), you're out of luck -...

Re: Does Nokia never fire anyone for incompetence?

Yeah, that might be true too, good point. Or just no one knows anything and they're guessing, but nothing good anyway.
