Hi,

I want to share some things with you guys regarding the meetup in Helsinki

First of all I really enjoyed it, the event exceeded my expectations. It was really good to get to meet the people behind the N900 in person. This is the first time I really felt what the community is really about. I haven't been involved for long, so this is a nice start for me . I must also say the food was very nice indeed.

I had a few questions that I asked and some questions that I heard someone else ask. I don't know whether some of these have been covered here before. Sorry if I repeat something old. Anyway, these are the most important ones for me (in no specific order):

Q: Does the alarm clock work if the device is turned off?
A: Yes.

Q: Is USB-OTG possible with the hardware of the N900?
A: I't is possible, but would be extremely difficult to implement. So practically almost impossible but can be done.

Q: Does the N900 support offline mode like symbian does?
A: Yes.

Q: Do bluetooth headsets work?
A: Yes.

Q: What technologies are used to develop desktop widgets?
A: C and Python at the moment. WRT support should be comming, but not very soon.


If you have more detailed information, feel free to make remarks.

Thanks for all the staff, catering service, and all the people who attended the event!
