Hey guys, I've had my n800 for about 4 days now and I've done a lot of experimenting with it. Right now I'm just running a FTP server on my desktop (Ubuntu) to access my home directory. I tried getting a Samba share up and running, but of course didn't think about the router's firewall. Should be no problem to fix now that I realize what to do...

I'm just wondering about the different media/document sharing solutions you guys have come up with. I would like to get Samba up and running (if I choose no password, it should show up in the Nokia's file manager, correct?), as it would be pretty nice for playing picture slideshows via the Nokia and/or my wife's laptop. Also that would probably be the most seamless way to access my docs.

I'm thinking for media browsing, maybe setting up a webserver and using some sort of CMS, like zenphoto. Something easy to navigate for when we want to find and show off pics quickly.

I haven't yet decided what to do for streaming video. Any suggestions? What do you guys use to access media/docs? The possibilities seem endless at this point!
