Re: Livestation for the Nokia Tablet
Ramkre, That's a heck of a statement and I agree with you but I doubt that it will ever happen. There are 10s of thousands of apps for the iPhone and only a few hundred for the N810. Why?

Re: I have an extra unused PC
I wasn't going to use Windows as a dev platform for the N810. That's why I mentioned Ubuntu and Debian. I was just mentioning that I was also considering making a dual-boot machine with a Linux and...

I have an extra unused PC and I'm thinking of installing Ubuntu or debian, or maybe Windows 7 Beta. Or maybe even making it a dual-boot linux/windows 7. Also thinking of using it to study developing...

First of all. I'm not an idiot.
Secondly, you got it all backwards. The N810 is already on it's death bed. The iPhone/iPod Touch will...

Re: Screwy battery life
Using the 'top' command I see that after a reboot I have 5 maemo-launch processes running. Four of them are using less than 1% but one is .7% to 2.3%...not much, so they can't be the culprit.

Re: Screwy battery life
Thanks, I'll try that top command.
I guess it wasn't mplayer (nor Canola and other media player apps that use it) causing the sudden dying battery after all because the other night I went to bed...

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
anything that has this much trouble installing isn't worth it. another example proving my point about open source software. get an ipod touch or a creative zev v to listen to audio books.

Re: Screwy battery life
prk60091, then it must be MPlayer which probably keeps on keepin' on even after Canola or MediaBox are quit.

Re: Screwy battery life
What do you use in Canola's place? MediaBox? They both use mplayer which may be the culprit. I'm now convinced that Canola is my problem. Since I haven't started up Canola I'm now going on Day 3 with...

Re: The itT Nokia N810 First Impressions Thread
I think the level of the top developers/programmers for both the iPod Touch/iPhone and the N810 is the same. The problem is how they approach the device:

Re: Nokia N810 Frustration
I promise but I'm still hanging in there a little longer with my N810. I love the Python environment and PyGTKEditor.
You see, not everything I say is negative.
