Yes,
In the top left corner: OVI beta

BETA shuld mean it works but is limited
But i think NOKIA have dictionary of diferent kind where OVI Beta means u can look but thats pretty much all.......

Anyone any idea when they gonna allow us to download stuff as well?

I don't have any Problems with installing apllications or games.

where are u? uk dont seem to work yet

UK as been working since yesterday for me as you can see on first page i;m in UK and discovered that it had launched
.
Have you updated the firmware with the one released yesterday?

Working fine for me, and last I checked Cornwall was part of the UK. (Though I'm among those who argue against it being part of England but that's another matter!)

If it's not working, did you install the update from yesterday? It won't work unless you do, I think.

Once you've done that, click the blue 'ovi' in your menu. The apps are not yet appearing in the app manager (which may be why it is beta).

Edit - it seems to be down right now (Server crash?? Did the US just wake up?) It was working fine this morning. No doubt it will be back.

!2:30 GMT and it seems to be back. Unchanged.

try.-

i'm so glad they didn't open the store until it was worth opening.

oh, wait...

It's not technically open, as the link on the N900 still says coming soon.

So was it what people expected???

Bear in mind, I have no experience of 'app-stores' on other devices. I've used some of the free places for palm or java, but never really looked into 'apps' until now. I know my nephews play games on their i-pod touchs so I expected that to be what was meant. And I've seen the ads for iphone apps advetrising things like a banking widget (I've got a browser, thanks).

So I didn't really know what to expect. I'd seen people here saying they desperately wanted "High-quality professional apps". Are these those?

Cos I have to confess I'm underwhelmed. True, not being a gamer I haven't tackled the much vaunted Angry Birds yet (though the solitaire game is extremely weak and featureless). But the rest seem to be Shiny-but-pointless. I can watch a candle. And put it out with my finger... quite fun the first few times. I can spin a mirror ball... how many times? The sand art is quite fun, and the pendulum a great cure for insomnia - but neither are what I'd call major. I could live without them.

By comparison, the apps I installed from extras may be a little less shiny, but they're a lot more use.

So is this what people expected? Am I the one out of step? And will there be more and better to come - or just more of the same?
