Packet injection FTW!

Apple proactively found users and replaced their phones immediately NEXT DAY SHIPPING. Not 30+ Days later like Nokia. Nokia LOST my tablet after 34 days and decided to send me a new one.

3. Marketing (its so easy to hack a new kernel into your new N800! you can have your rss feeds disappear! your email client will randomly lose its ability to function! you can use a screwed up alpha web browser that mangles text input, and requires ini changes for easy scrolling!) perfect 30 second spot for the IT.

Again, I must refer you to my signature...
Market what? I'll help Nokia make a few advertisements for the N800.

"Visit YouTube. Don't hit play though, make sure its done streaming or else you'll have a 3-4fps slide show!."

"If you want an up to date browser, go ahead and install microb (FROM THE MAKERS OF FIREFOX). Unfortunately, you can't scroll correctly... it will just jump around to text fields and crash miserably on dynamic sites like jellyfish."

"Your email on the go! Once. Then thats about it."

"Get all your favorite news from your favorite sites! Twice. Then it disappears."

"Sync all your favorite music and podcas.... oh nevermind."

"Install GPE Suite so you can have contacts, but don't worry about syncing them though! Its so much better to have everything out of sync. Say hello to old friends you never thought you'd call!"

"Watch your favorite videos! Just make a few tweaks to your kernel so you can avoid terrible tearing."
