Well, OK, this will be my first time with a Maemo product, but Google came out with Google Sync for my blackberry, and also had it for my Windows Mobile phones. If not, maybe you can use an app just t osync google ONCE to your device or to do it MANUALLY everytime .

Arg I still can't decide to pre-order this device or not!!! :'( I usually wait for the first few reviews, but my Bold is dying :'( RIP Bold. lol.

In most Nokia devices you can use USB mass storage to access the memory (and therefore put applications on it to install 'on-device'), so it doesn't necessarily need drivers.

There is no Linux PC Suite at the moment but I think they intend to make one using Qt, why wouldn't you? I believe that might be the Ovi Suite work they're doing in Beta Labs.

Sorry I'm new with last generation of Nokia devices. What does "Ovi Contacts" exactly refers to?

i'm saying this without any in-depth understanding of how the contacts and calendar work in meamo5, but i wonder whether it would be feasible to expect the contacts and calendar application in maemo to be ported to ubuntu? i can think of at least one pleasant use-case:

OTA syncronization of contacts, (conversation) and calendar with a desktop computer, similar to what's possible with ical on mac os x and the iphone.

Some screenshots of the initial GUI:

To do:
  • Manual mapping from contact to Facebook/Twitter friends
  • Allowing creation of new contacts (desirable?)
  • Automatic resyncing for profile pic changes
  • Prettier main screen
  • Package and publish beta version
