No, it isn't. Believe me, I would have noticed if it was...

The Reload button only appears if the previous page has fully downloaded successfully, which may be why you haven't seen it.

Which makes it useless, because that's the reason why I need it.

  • :confused: Make it possible to enter history from the bookmarks page
This last point bugged me as well (and many of your other points too). Being able to quickly access the recent history when you launch the browser is very handy, especially on a mobile device. I really loved the Opera Mini start page on my Symbian phones - it would display both the bookmarks and recent history and make it a snap to get to the page you wanted.

I actually raised a bug for this a while ago for this. See bug 5719. It's been marked as WONTFIX unfortunately. Feel free to vote for it though if you'd like this behaviour changed.

Excellent & exactly what I had in mind in spending 1 valuable hour of my Sunday evening compiling this post.

I've just voted for it and hopefully so will others. Also adding the bug link to my OP. Hopefully this will help stop Nokia mark perfectly reasonable requests as "won't fix"

EDIT: I'm not trying to bash you for taking it back - if it doesn't suit your needs, then I'm just glad you made a decision to take it back rather than just hanging around here whining about it. But if you're drawing up a list of requirements, you need to make sure they're not contradictory!
Yes, that is what I expect - make it sleeker and with better battery life. But as I said, I don't mind bigger... battery can grow in many other directions than just up and down ! And there are much more factors that influence on battery life, than just size ! Again - see N810.

when you want to reload a page that is still loading:

press the red X next to the "resent history"-button on the bottom, press the title bar, find the reload button.

there you go!

Well it doesn't work for me from the N900 but works fine from my iPod touch (same accounts/server). It therefore sounds like a bug in Modest; I'll raise it in Bugzilla shortly and will post the reference.

Perhaps I should have been more specific and stated that I would expect a solution that works cross-platform and is "reasonably easy" to setup. I also doubt that rsync would cater for metadata.

I guess this could still be useful for others who are running a UNIX-based desktop. I'm sure they would appreciate pointers on how to set this up; last I checked SMB shares weren't supported by the N900 and NFS mounts were somewhat hit and miss...

Maybe that's another thing that PR1.1 fixed - my last trip abroad was at Xmas (ie: before the f/w upgrade).

Over all a good article.

In the end my biggest woe is when I see my friends with there 3GS and they have about a bazzilion apps for anything and everything I just get a small shrinking feeling that we wont see any of that on the N900.

Mainly due to Nokia appearing to not really support Maemo 5 in the way Apple supported iphone 2.0 +
