Has anyone else had an issue where if you lock the tablet, you can't unlock it? Ie, it won't let you press the center button to unlock the screen and buttons?

This did happen to me once few weeks back... I had then little bit older firmware... apparently the problem is still not fixed?

SO how is the battery life with OS 2008? Is it worse, as good as before, or perhaps even better?

How to get a valid mac adress to put for the validation.

Pick a random number between 126409750144 and 126409842879. (those numbers are in decimal, not hexadecimal). Then google for "convert <number_you_picked> to hexadecimal" without the quotes.Take the hexadecimal result (it will say 0x<some_string> use the <some_string> part) and use it for the validation.

edit: you have to add two zeroes to the beginning of it too, see post below.

It looks like N810 mac adresses are all in this range, so if you pick a number from here it will work, but the number won't be from anyones specific device, so no one should get in trouble.

Took about 5 minutes to find this range trought some trial and error, maybe they should consider getting a more secure validation system :P

Ok, I've been reading this all morning and I just cannot resist. I've got the ubuntu cd and it worked so seamlessly that if I had the cable with me here at work I'd be underway.

As it is, I'm headed home to do this thing, hoping that in the intervening hour nothing will happen to deter me. Or, better, would be an 'official' release by Nokia and we can all get on with it! Please?

e. One more thing I wonder, can I use my N95 as a GPS unit for the N800? :)

I'm glad I didn't brick it. :)

It sure feels sweet! :D

Now I wonder where all the apps I need are, stuff like Mplayer, Evince, FBreader.. yes I know I'll use the search.

USB bug? Sounds scary :eek:

There are some things that aren't really bugs but annoy me anyways. One of them being that when you move files in filemanager you end up to the folder to which you're moving the files to.. why? It's the same with OS 2007 thou so. I make a list of things some day :)

Also, count me as someone who doesn't like that the 'stylus-mode' view for the applications/web/contacts menus isn't available anymore, no matter if you use the stylus or not its always in the 'thumb-mode'. Using the stylus was nice for when I was scrolling through large lists of things, since more could be shown on the screen.
