Re: My N900 Experience
You know how they say, "Better safe than sorry." Well, it's the biggest truth.
My USB port has suffered a terrible fate. Surprisingly quick, too, considering how I've been doing nothing but taking...

Re: 7, 8 Inch Windows Tablets
A mobile device with a keyboard would mean that shortcuts would work wonders with a keyboard-driven interface. Not to mention that the stylus is pretty nifty.
I suppose the only deal-breaker for...

Re: SailfishOS Update11 discussions
You know, there's something they should've included in the Monday update. It's a simple fix that would work wonders for Jolla. A bugfix, if you will. I'm not sure why they didn't take note of it yet,...

Re: SailfishOS Update10 discussions
I'll admit; I kind of skimmed the top of that linked page.
That's massive. There's even some UI changes. That's pretty exciting!
Is there anything they missed? As far as I can tell, all bases...

Re: SailfishOS Update10 discussions
That seems...oddly basic. I suppose announcing bugfixes wouldn't be very exciting.
Is there anything that desparately needs updating? Perhaps UI changes or the web browser or camera app?

Lol and there it is. You know what they say. If you want something done, do it yourself.
So, what does the latest update entail outside of updating to the latest Qt version? Bugfixes? Driver...

Re: SailfishOS Update10 discussions
What is this thread actually supposed to be? To me, it looks like the same kind of "fan vs. critics" b_tch-fest that console kiddies engage in.
You know, the very furthest thing from a discussion.

Re: My N900 Experience
Ran into a few "quirks" on my N900. I'll call them that, for the term "shortcomings" is a little bit harsh, on the grounds that others obviously had/are having success with these and damning the N900...

No, I had the same trouble with HAM as well. The problem was no more after updating.
The only reason I went into HAM to update was because of the apparent problems with FAM updating (although I've...
