Re: Any news on an extended battery for the N900?

Even if looking for an extended battery is a good approach, I would suggest looking for ways to make the phone draw less power.

Re: maemo 4 port to 5800

I'm finding myself surrounded by people who are enthusiast to say the least; but they are not driven by Maemo, they are enthusiast about Android and the Jesus phone, despite a significant share of...

Re: N900 device program for maemo.org developers and contributors

to qgil, because he doesn't get private messages:

It strikes me as grossly unfair that a developer with an application in top 30 downloads for OS2008 doesn't have enough karma to get eligible for...

Problem: Compatibility breaks between OS and device releases

I'm on a rant here, I'm frustrated and quite upset right now, so take this rant with precautions, and accept advanced apologies if I offend anyone.

Re: Easter egg in the RX-51?

I'd love to see a docking station for this baby.

To me, ability to hookup a hi-res monitor and keyboard when I'm in the office, and have the desktop in my pocket when I'm away would be a killer....

Ari Jaaski says OSS must play nice with DRM and locked parts

Re: NITs - what are they good for... ???

Well, I don't know about you, but I actually like having my emails offline ... maybe this is why I loved the m105 ?

Re: SD card maximum speed?
