Best N900 Communities??
 
Hello,
Besides Maemo.org, what other sites will be strong resources for the N900 community? I have a Samsung Eternity for my wife and there is Samsung-Eternity.com which is awesome! What sites besides Maemo.org are there for the N900?

Thanx!

I guess there is symbian-freak and maemo-freak or something like that. This is the best place IMO.

Howard Forums could develop into another potentially good resource on the telephony side of things.

I believe following http://maemo.org/news is basically enough, since most of the meat from other sites is aggregated and rated there.

Don't know where you are from. I know one large Dutch IT community called Gathering of Tweakers. Although it isn't a N900 community the news site regularly publishes about Maemo and Nokia N900. The forum, quite large, contains a Maemo / N900 thread and this is pretty informative and alive. The advantage is local/own language, useful to hunt device in stores, talk about keyboard layout, data plans. Disadvantage is that other places are simply more informative, complete, quicker with reports, and other cultural viewpoints are refreshing. It really depends on why you want to go to a Maemo or N900 community.

amen.
(Symbian-Freak is an S60/Symbian site. Maemo-Freak is our new Maemo community portal for news and a dedicated forum, but it won't be public until...today hopefully. Ugh! I'm swamped!!

MF is a combination of a wide range of ages, from 13-65, but mostly teens and tweens with hacking and developing experience, alongside new users and mostly Symbian power users moving to the Maemo space. Our percentage of college graduates is higher than most places, and the atmosphere is more laid back and friendly than other forums.)

internettablettalk.com is still active, and being used as a blog by RogerS.

Reggie has just opened up MaemoTalk to replace internettablettalk, so maybe we'll finally see the old ITT page shut down?

At the very least maybe Reggie could forward ITT to either here or MaemoTalk?

Chris, that's neither true nor fair.

Seriously, relax. You're free to express opinions regardless of tenure... I just responded with mine.

There is no trainwreck here. Just a mostly informal forum wrapped around open-source activity, important context I think you're overlooking.

Want more formality? Nokia Forums is the place. But we reserve the right play a little looser here.

sure, you can have your opinion, but then let have him also have his opinion...

Chris: I'm watching the threads around you since some days. And I really think, that you're a nice guy, who just want to help and improve maemo, just as we.
But I've observated, that in my impression you want to have many attention. And that's not the open source way. We are all just a part of something bigger.
And speaking of opinions. Your opinion is, that a system-wide portrait support would improve maemo. That's okay. Nobody says, that portrait is bad. Some are just saying, that supporting portrait would be difficult to realize, because this would cause some problems, and that would result in an inconsistent user-experience. And that IS bad.
So if you're okay with some problems, but at least having portrait, that's your opinion again. And it is good to have many different opinions, but it is difficult to pleasure everyone.
I also think, that you're a person who want's to lead something... A community, a project, whatever... But you must understand: The maemo community doesn't have a leader. We are all the same, and we should live peacefully and respect each other (that part was not only to you).
I hope, that you'll stay at our community because you've good ideas and you're full of enthusiasm. We are not perfect, but we are humans.

As Texrat stated somewhere else: just feel the flow and go with it!
