Thanks for the kind words! and we are not only work to make it really worth it but also I have a confident thinking that you guys are going to really like canola. Of course a lot of things will need some improvements after the first round of real feedback, but we tried to fix so much mistakes from the 1.0 and make easy to expand the new version that we now that is not going to be great , but will allow not only us but the other developers to make it fetch your needs.

Well, actually even with small "management" things (like being able to delete videos for example, I think we will be able to really look after the features you said apart from the raphsody. For music we have 2 great album art based views, and one is really going to be canola exclusive, not copied from anywhere else.

I really understand you, and totally agree. Along with other small hidden things this is also one of the real great things about the iphone. Multitasking is "simple" and you don't need to learn. the applications record the state and you are presented with what you left when you come back. We didn't needed that in canola 1.0 but for the new one that was a real requirement, so not only we will try to implement this right, but also give the user a dedicated task switch button.

because like you we also believe that: " The n800 is capable of much, much more but I am hoping that the new Canola really seamlessly ties the multimedia capabilities of the N800 together."

So let's see if we can get it right.
I am actually setting up a MythTV box in the next few weeks specifically for use with the Canola

"Hi Handful. Will the new Canola be compatible with 2006OS? Thanks."

Well, actually the new canola is quite a lot of python, and we have the releases for all platforms versions. I cannot assure that, because if things gets really delayed for some reasons the 770 version is the first to drop, but we have a kind of a "personal" (team) goal to make canola 2.0 run fast and beautiful on the 770 just to show some Evas speed off =) (kidding) So, I will not promised anything in behalf of the team, but I can at least say that we are in a good position to at least make it available for it, and maybe its a little bit slower, but it would be a real killer if it was quite fast on that device running 2006 software also.

Cheers from Brazil!
