So I just got a new n900 after I dropped my last one in a pool ( :'( ). But I got the phone (brand new replacement from nokia :P ) and for some reason there are no repositories on it, so I'd like to add in the default repositories so I can make sure all my basic stuff is up to date and etc. And, on the wiki I could only find a list of additional repositories on top of the base repositories. So, could somebody please give me link to a page with, or write out, the repositories I have to add.

I'm not sure, but I don't think the nokia repository is even running any more.

I didn't know Nokia still had any units left after all this time. I also heard that they were replacing all flauty/spoilt N900s with N9s. How many N900s do you think are in the wild? A hundred thousand?
