Whoops! My bad!

My apologies, I didn't mean to imply any sort of inexperience on your part. I think I assume too quickly sometimes

anyway, I don't know about most people, but I'm more than happy to. And yes, a bluetooth keyboard is essential if you're going to be doing a lot of coding.

and no, the interpreter doesn't come installed by default but can be easily installed by apt-get install python2.5

python2.5 and all the modules should be in Maemo Extras. Also, there's a ton of apps that depend on python (most notably Canola2, youtube players, and home applets) so if you've downloaded and installed some software you might already have it.

Hmmm... there was a thread discussing .mod players a while back... i think they mentioned that Timidity would play a .mod, but it does it slowly because it converts it to a .wav first then uses gstreamer to play the .wav. I'm not entirely sure on this point though, you may want to check

EDIT: Milkytracker has been ported to the tablet and I believe it supports .mod playing That thread's over here: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=21653
