thanks for the info!

Just to note I worked around this by assigning a static address in the wlan settings and entering opendns IP addresses for the nameserver addresses in the same settings page ( 208.67.220.220, 208.67.222.222). This would work for anyone running into the same problem who is in a position to use a static IP on their wlan connection.

For people without that luxury, I don't know..

On a related note (relates to your screenshot of the FM tuner app). Has anyone got the FM tuner working? Mine does absolutely nothing useful.

The red indicator says 87.5 MHz all the time. I can scroll the dial (background) back and forth to other frequencies, but no matter how much I scroll, it always stays at 87.5 and if I save a radio channel, I can give it a name, but it will be automatically saved with 87.5. The play button to the left of "Save station" does nothing and the jump buttons left and right do nothing. So... do I need to install some FM tuner enabler or should this work with just this one software? I have my headphones connected as an antenna.

I must must must must must say that the N900 is the greatest phone I have ever touched. The screen responsiveness is second to non, almost as sensitive as a capacative touch, I have had 0 reboots and have had no troubles with mic so far. The phone is much better than n97 but i agree this device is not a phone, hold it to your ear to answer a call and you know you are holding it. Its not too big but it is certainly substantial and makes the iphone nd n97 feel almost cheap due to them being so light. I permit everyone go and get this phone

why should the device reboot out of a sudden anyway?

i assume those reboots are a result of doing some strange stuff with the device rather than random reboots while the device is idle, right?

Or hardware defect issues. Some people are experiencing reboot problems while others are not. This is even with factory defaults and a reflash of the OS so there's nothing installed.
