gerald, thank you very much for all your efforts! at this point forum changes are no longer important to me since the os2008 community that flourished here has pretty much vanished. obviously it was in the way of nokias business model. while this does not bode very well for maemos longterm future, i can't really blame anyone else but myself for this; after all, i was always free to start up my own tablet site/forum, and didn't. let's look at the bright side and be grateful that the archives still exist!
