Wishlist for nokia n900
 
Green phone and red phone button to accept and reject calls and to start phone app. This is like the most important feature i need.

Open office port.

Port of Dalvik and android store, should not be tooo hard but will instantly give us thousands of apps.

Better keyboard. AKA more like G1 or at least 5 rows.

Built in VPN support for at least pptp, cisco

Built in support for SyncML.

Native port of putty.

Full port of all common linux command line tools like nslookup, mc, wget, bash, grep etc in one installable package.

More debian support.

Decent call list.

Vibrate phone when the call starts ( when you dial you do not have to put the phone on your head to hear rings, just put it when the phone vibrates like the newer G1 )

What? Why? Putty is a hack-wannabe of the real OpenSSH which the N900 already has... You just wanting a GUI?

Open office port. - look this http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...489#post429489

Native port of putty. - OpenSSH but without GUI

Full port of all common linux command line tools like nslookup, mc, wget, bash, grep etc in one installable package.: Except "mc" all of them work under rootsh. "mc" is absent on ubuntu by default.

More debian support. - It is easy to recompile any packages (except graphics). look this: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ght=openoffice

And come on, wget and bash and that stuff is all right there in the repositories, just apt-get install them... And grep is built-in...

And what does "more debian support" mean, exactly?

(BTW: nice to see you back, fatalsaint!)

I'll be happy with abiword/gnumeric or koffice. Not that I really need them. I tend to use LaTeX or such like to do all my docs. Another thing I'd like is evince so I could view any document.

vpnc in extras somewhere, openvpn in extras somewhere, pptp I guess that's the one thing missing. Shouldn't be to hard though.

Techincally it's there but only over BT atm.

Why for the love of all that is holy would you want a second rate ssh client when you have openssh or dropbear and a proper terminal.

grep - check
bash - check
mc - in extras check
nslookup - check
wget - check

Anything else... check

It's dead easy to build your own if you need as well :)
More debian support.

I guess you mean call log. Would be nice.

Hmm I remember an app for the S60 that did something like this. Probably dooable in a similar way that a record my calls app could be.


So most of this is a no-op or a no-brainer.

umm, you mention the package with "wget", where is IT?!

i wanna compile stuff on my n900, but i need wget!

Re: Wishlist for nokia n900
 
You really shouldn't compile things on it. Use the SDK to do so. But it's at this location:
pool/fremantle/free/w/wget/wget_1.10.2-2osso3_armel.deb
