Re: "Fixed in Fremantle"
All this talk about the community back-porting fremantle doesn't help with the fact that nokia/maemo are closing bugs raised against chinook/diablo as fixed, when they are only fixed in firmware that...

Re: "Fixed in Fremantle"
Personally, I find being told that something is fixed but I can't have it more annoying than being told nothing. Ignorance is bliss, after all.

Re: I only wish for one thing?
I'm going to go for a better screen -- 5.6" 1280x800 from the U820 would be nice in a nearly N800-sized device, but a 4.5" or so 1024x600 would be nice, and more reasonable.

Re: I only wish for one thing?
GNU toolset+dash+bash. instead of Busybox. Much easier porting for many libraries, apps, etc. Come on, it's only 3.5mb extra use in flash (busybox is 300kb) for a lot less headache for developers....

Re: I only wish for one thing?
If we had hardware 3D (enabled?) maybe we could really improve the smoothness of the whole user experience, make the whole interface a little more like Canola, and make Canola's eye candy a little...

Re: The N800 has a 3D accelerator, right?
Well spotted Jon,
However, there is no interaction with the powervr chip within this driver.
