Kinda bored with that whole deal
What I'd like to see is the calendar integrating with the events view. Upcoming appointments for the next 7 days for instance. That would be very useful, at least for me.

Tried out the navigation bit today and this is what i think, based on comparing to maps on the N900 and 5800.
The focus here is how easy it is to use for getting to point B
Pros:
- Can actually be used for navigation (unlike N900)
- Drive UI is better for use while driving than on 5800
- Several voices in different languages to choose from
- Search is way better that on N900 and 5800, result as you type
- Integration with contacs is sweet when you've entered an address for your contact.
- Preinstall maps (optional I think)
- Free (as in beer)
- Feels faster than on N900 and 5800 (no measurement done)
Cons:
- Favorites from "Maps" don't show up in drive to be selected as destination.
- No speed limit warning (missing feature compared to 5800)
- No speed camera warning (missing feature compared to 5800)
- No "I need gas within 20km, plot the shortest possible detour" button, (why does no Navi solution have this? it seems so obvious)
- Not possible to uninstall individual maps, you need to uninstall them all and then reinstall the ones you want, or update only the ones you want to keep (only possible when an update is available)
- No "report map error" function

Since N9 was meant for the average Joe, how would you pitch to an iPhone or android user?

I'm having a big problem right now...after updating some apps, my home screen (apps screen) is left with just about 10 shortcuts. None of them is system related...so right now I'm banging my head how to get to the settings page and do a reset.
What I've tried so far:
- "*#7370#" not working on MeeGo
- downloaded firmware with Navifirm and tried to flash it with Phoenix. The device goes into Test Mode and when it's about to start flashing it gives an error ("MCUSW flashing failed. Exiting...").
I have a file manager installed and I can access it.
Does anyone know if I can launch the settings app?
LE: I think I have a solution for my problem, but still need your help.
I'm gonna try to restore a back-up file. The problem is, I have no back-up file...
Can anyone send me a backup file done after a clean device reset? I think this might just work...

It would be nice to get the settings to behave independently with respect to what type of network connection my N9 is on since I am not on a data plan (am constantly surrounded with WIFI signal ). In other words, I would like to enable the settings for Internet connections (WIFI) and have it disabled for Mobile connections.
So.. is this really a bug or it is just a feature of N9 (the linkage of 2 settings... or are they even the same setting that just happens to appear in both panes?)?
See if your mobile network is under "Automatically used networks," if it does, click the network and disable "Use automatically."
