Re: [NEEDED] Appealing ideas for next CSSU

Spellcheck for the email client would be nice (and even nicer in other programs - such as fMobi, web browser, etc.)

BoingBoing shared this old piece of reporting today:

Maybe Elop will be at Nokia for just over a year.

Re: Amazing - Elop lays the axe on Symbian, MeeGo and QT

If Meego is not dead already, then this message from Elop has killed it. Why would a rational developer want to invest time and money in Meego or QT if they know that Nokia considers Meego to be a...

Re: [SURVEY:] What kind of Applications are you missing at the N900?

Only two apps I am really missing:

1) Finger-friendly word processor with integrated spellcheck.

2) Decent e-mail application that works reliably with Exchange 2003.

Re: Where do I get music online?

I agree - CDs/DVDs are instant archives.

Amazon's MP3 store is getting more impressive. I prefer it now to iTunes in terms of flexibility.

I bet you that Nokia will miss this deadline and not have exciting news on the day that they said they would.

Re: Documents To Go Premium Trial on Ovi store

DataViz responded to a Twitter question I sent them today:

"It will be released soon (days, not weeks)...the upgrade process will be cleared up when it goes live. I think you'll be pleased."

Re: Leaving Nokia for life if no Flash 10.1 for N900

Dominick, perhaps. However, I think our community will be stronger if Nokia increases sales. More N900 users = more value to developers. I would rather not see N900 owners migrate to another...

Re: Who said that Flash 10.1 is not coming?

Not so much want, but need. I purchased the N900 to use as a netbook replacement. The size of the device may make some applications less easy to use (small keyboard, etc.), but I can take it with me...

N900 keyboard is better than that of the Milestone
N900 has front facing camera and irda
N900 makes it extremely easy to install .deb files

Re: How to contact Nokia DIRECT to complain.

I would also recommend that you take the N900 survey. The feedback provided in the survey will help pinpoint what Nokia needs to do to improve the N900.
