Re: Some wonderful news considering N900, MeeGo, PR 1.3 and other good stuff

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

To be fair, from a development perspective life is easier if you target the baseline. Handling custom modifications are niceties that come later.

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

If you tap and slide up from the main camera screen, you can see the photos you've taken. If you tap and slide down, you can also set the application to place a JPEG of the captured image into your...

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

It doesn't do most of those things (it does do HDR and long exposure), but it does expose focus controls, colour warmth, etc. I've seen panoramas mentioned, but if it's there, I don't see how to do...

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

Great! By the way, I'm not affiliated with this project at all, I just think that what they're doing is great and they deserve our support. I'm a bit confused as to why they're getting so much flak...

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

Bear in mind this is research software, and therefore probably written under time constraints with little funding or support. Your support would help them out a lot. Did you submit a bug report, with...
