Top Ten Things to do after buying an N800
 
Hi people. I just took the dive and ordered my N800 off amazon over here in Germany. I have also bought a class 6 8GB sd card that I will be using in conjunction with a 2GB card that I already own.

As an N800 noob, what are the top ten things I should do immediately after it arrives?

not exactly the answer I was expecting...

I was asking for people's personal opinions on what they think the best aps are etc.

Here's what I plan to do and please comment on anything you would add to take away from my list.

1. OS 2008
2. Bomberman etc...
3. Mplayer
4. Kopete equivalent? (for yahoo video support)
5. AMSN (or equivalent?for msn video support)
6. Quiver Image Viewer
7. ACCESS Garnet (Treo user)
8. Game emulators (MAME?)
9. Mauku (Jaiku)
10. do N-Gage games work on the new OS yet?

Go to downloads.maemo.org and browse through your 10 favorite categories. :)

1. Setup wireless access at home and enjoy surfing the web wherever you go in your house

2. Setup bluetooth access with your phone and enjoy surfing the web wherever you go at all.

3. Browse your local coffeeshops for free wireless access and enjoy surfing the web whilst drinking coffee.

4. Install Kagu/UKMP/Canola and load up your N800 with all your favorite tracks.

5. Explore all the other great apps on maemo to find your favorites.

...

99. Install OS2008 when youre bored doing all the other stuff, because as of yet, there really are very few applications available for it. Sure it's snappy, sure it's pretty, sure it's the latest and greatest, but without apps, whatcha gonna do?

There is a lot of that style of posting going on here. People should at least post some key words if the "search the forum" is used or dont post at all.

The things I did right away are:
1. Buy some sd cards
2. Buy foldable keyboard
3. GPE
4. Setup repo's
5. Gnumeric
6. Rhapsody
7. Buy car charger
8. Notecase
9. Mplayer
10. Buy a case
