i don't understand the excuses about "the IT wasn't meant to do this or that" - why on earth would you cut out functionality that a large majority of your market (gadet hounds and business people)...

Re: office software

Gnumeric is a spreadsheet ported to OS2008; under OS2007 it had Excel support, but that seems to be a bit buggy the last time I heard. I don't use it to create files that I then use...

Re: unfair review?
Hi folks

Re: unfair review?
The issue with the Nseries is that it has no focus.
Non-tech people generally aren't sure what they're for - 'Internet Tablet' is very broad.
Tech people just see Linux Palmtop and immediately...

Re: unfair review?
The review seemed totally fair to me. I own a N800, which I enjoy playing with, but consider it solely a toy and probably the first of all my devices I could do without. In terms of usefulness, it...

Re: unfair review?
Well, while the Nokia ITs might not do everything, they try to and do a great job at it. The lack of PIMs isn't because it can't do it. It could do it far easier than providing horsepower to play...

Re: desktop snap to grid
Yes, the problem you are having is precisely because the desktop does have a snap to grid feature which you can't turn off, or tune. There was some discussion in bug #2639...

Re: Palm user: is it time to move to the Nxxx?
Set your Hotsync ID on your desktop, then sync. I also tried the /usr/bin/gvm/gvm --hotsyncid="username:number" (you need the number) thing and it also works. You probably need to complete a sync...
