Thank you.
In your experience would we expect to wait days or weeks,months for that type of update? I have no experience of this stuff and I can't have a phone that doesn't have this feature. What do you reckon? Thank you so much for your patience with me.

Hey andre, you said

Probably the N900 tries to support Exchange 2007 fully, but there's something that's called a software bug... It's quite likely as I have not seen an application yet that was completely free of errors. ;-)

errr would it be too much to ask, to see your folders that include the emails???? and then the emails inside the folders...

Is it not this the reason, we use exchange?

You can call it a minor bug if you want, I take it you do not use exchange?

The rumour is that there is a 1.1 release due around Christmas, who knows what goodies might be inside. May be it depends on whether you have been a good child or not over the last 12 months ;)

As not being marketing guy, I am not allowed to communicate any maemo plans. Sorry.

The interest from the users certainly seems to be there.
I don't know the difficulties of doing this but I think it would be a very welcome addition.
I think the same :-) And I see the HUGE interest to sync with google in this thread and in this forum in general.

Yes. To be precise - not all the emails but the e-mails which are in sync window. Typical choice is "2 weeks" but there is an option "sync everything" as well.

Subfolders are supportedl. Of course, they shall be locate d in the server, not in your desktop computer. But I believe it is obvious for everybody here.

Are you saying mfe2003 is not supported? is there any functionality at all?
The same story as with the google in fact. You can be lucky but that's all. Typically you unlucky.

will it be fully supported in the next firmware if not available at the moment?
Wait for sw. update as I have told several times here :-) Our marketing guys will communicate more information in the right time.

Um. Which part of 'community development' doesn't make sense? How's anyone supposed to get even slightly involved if you won't even tell people what you're working on?

This is not a marketing issue.

Just a side comment. N900 MfE does not sync your IM contacts. It syncs only your "real" addressbook. And I believe this is right behavior as skype, gtalk, other IM contacts belong to the servers other than MS Exchange.

I guess that the MfE part needs some work together with MS and as such doesn't fall under the "open" or "community" part. Understandable, if you want to support Exchange.

Software update is a new firmware which you can install on your device.

S60 does it in this a way: http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-...oftware-update

maemo way: http://www.maemo-guru.com/2009/11/ho...900s-firmware/

Update. The really "nice" maemo way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At9tJHmgnrE
