that playlist thing, am i missing something here? i could have sworn that can be done.
just add stuff to a empty "current playing" and then hit "save list"...
but then im the kind of guy that insert all my music into the default list and hits "random". old winamp habit i guess
as for hidden dirs, they are often hidden for a reason (mostly because you normally have no reason to mess around in them on day to day). but yes, that missing feature was annoying me on the 770. but now there is emelfm2, so i dont care any more.
fonts, browser or otherwise, i have never cared much about. yes, i have seen people write page after page about fonts, aliasing and whats not. me, i just use defaults as long as they are readable. but then im geek, not artist
video calls, welcome to the 80's. this is something that there have been much talk about but i have yet to be convinced has any real value. sure, its fun at times to watch whoever it is thats talking with you. but just as often i find myself talking while doing other stuff, resulting in the bandwidth of the video bit being wasted at best.
updating i can agree on. that one is just downright insane. even the nokia phones can deal with that...

With that aside.
I may be completely wrong here (I recall seeing this mentioned more than once, but I could perhaps have misunderstood or taken things out of context—somebody with a more intimate knowledge of OMAP please *****-slap me if I'm just talking out of my *** here) Manufacturing models with more or less RAM is a less trivial thing to do on an OMAP system than a regular laptop (one thing I am certain of, though, is that aftermarket expansion of that RAM is most certainly out of the question), as the RAM is manufactured into the SoC, rather than in a separate chip. So, to offer two models (say, one at 128MB and one at 256MB) it wouldn't simply be a matter of swapping out a RAM chip.
While I don't disagree that it would be a nice option, I don't really think it's super-appropriate for a mobile device right now. Personally, I'd rather just see Nokia put 512MB into the things with zero impact on either cost or battery life.

Ok, but HOW has it been brought up?
(...) So let's hit it, gang. VOTE ON THOSE BUGS!!! And by all means, argue (respectfully) to get your points across if need be.(...)

Most, if not all, of these issues are fixed in Diablo.

It doesn't matter. Forget the word "bug"-- there's a place for everything on maemo bugzilla.
). Issues with Nokia's stupid, lame, wife-beating, backwards UI spec don't (seemingly) get resolved through bugzilla. Look at all the (perfectly reasonable, and well thought-out) enhancement requests that get WONTFIXed because of the UI spec.We really need a place to get changes made is that heaping pile of used prophylactics.

Screen tap goes to random places / Especially when typing fast on full screen keyboard
One key input causing multiple repeats
High pressure sensitivity with no configuration
Finger tap not bringing up finger keyboard
Wonder if such a problem exists on tho N810, although those users r most likely be just using the physical keyboard, so the problems above are not as apparent. Either way, it's no reason for a newer non-beta version to be less stable.
