Is this user error?

Mine works just fine.

I'm online during the working day with 5 iM services, all using the standard Conversations application on the N900 (with the MSN plugin). I've had no trouble making.receiving calls while this is happening.

It would be kind of neat if it actually sucked. You could use it as an ultra mini-vac.

Right. I so much love these users who "find" bug and eventually make themselves clowns by making huge rant.

And you gotta love these users who "find" a user pointing out bugs by making huge rants and then make themselves dancing, silly irony-clowns by making a huge rant.

Worksforme and probably to many other users.

I would very very veeery careful when making any generalizations about bugs that I find from my N900. Just because if I did found bug from my n900 and straight forward jump from there making long rant about it and other stuff that is on my mind (reminds me of readers opinions section in local newspaper, I got mostly huge laugh of them because they are so bad) I would at least my self be ashamed if it didnīt hold and was only half true. So first I would try to find if there are others having this bug and do they have this bug in clean device.

Actually I have seen these cases so many. What it is that if you have problem with quite expensive device X and it doensīt work as you expect it to work then some people tend to go totally f-ckwad. I think that to go that level of pure anger needs at least 5 iterations of discussion and reading manuals and doing bug reports and after that you should let the pressure valve open.

e.g. I could take many rants more seriously if they had at least links to bugzilla or proper description of bug and how to reproduce them. Currently Iīm seeing some rants that I find absurd because things people rant (and tend to think that all have that problem) about work on my device.

Yes, when working in tech support for eight years or so, I encountered many users who would claim "x doesn't work!!!" and it was obvious that x DID work for almost everyone but that user.

Moral: Don't assume that you are the world (or you and your friends, either)

This phone needs a decent bittorrent-client. I have tried them all: qtrapids, ctorrent, rtorrent, transmission they simply do not work.

I would recommend ctorrent + flashlite + dht + pex

I've used Transmission and others and they have worked for me. I've downloaded gigs of Wikipedia, for example.

Better would be better, of course.

Do you use it with FAT or ext3? I believe it is an file io problem. Using it with ext3 could solve the problem.

When you see some of the last qosmio's wallpapers (in the mod's thread) you definitely regret it.....(that it does not sucks..)
