It only flickers a couple of times, then stays solid.

Another tutorial, this time inspired by the BBC thread elsewhere in this forum:

Nokia N800: Listening to internet radio stations, including the BBC

http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/200...net-radio.html

Apologies for the lack of sound on the video, it's due to a technical hitch with YouTube which I hope will get fixed very soon.

As always, comments, corrections and general feedback is very welcome.

After a short break, more tutorials. First off is a guide to memory cards on the N800:

http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/200...ds-to-use.html

Corrections and feedback are always welcome!

This is another tutorial inspired by the site's access logs, quite a few people were searching Google for "n800 which memory card" or terms similar to that.

Right, it's taken a while but here's a newbie's guide to finding and installing software on the N800:

http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/200...lling-new.html

Feedback, comments, corrections etc etc all very very welcome. Please do say if you spot any mistakes as this is a very complicated topic.

I know there are lots of great apps which aren't catalogue-based, but as far as I can tell their installation is a bit too complicated for novices, due to compatibility and dependency issues.

Short and sweet tutorial this time, how to change the desktop wallpaper:

http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/200...e-desktop.html

This is another one of those topics where people were searching for it, so I've done it.

Another photo-oriented tutorial, this time about how to transfer photos and videos from your phone onto your tablet so you can view and store them:

http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/200...and-video.html

The N800's screen is so much better than most phones', it makes the N800 a perfect photo'n'vids album. It's also much easier to see if a photo has come out properly on the N800's screen than on a phone screen.

Very special tutorial this time, it's been filmed and devised by Thoughtfix of TabletBlog.com. It tells you how to export your RSS feed subscriptions from Google Reader to the N800's built-in RSS reader.

http://tabletschool.blogspot.com/200...ur-google.html

I wrote the text to make it clear what RSS feeds etc are, but all of the content (including the video and the tip to disconnect the N800 before importing) were all supplied by Thoughtfix.

Any corrections and comments very welcome.

Another new tutorial, this time a very in-depth look at the Handwriting Recognition feature. I started out thinking this feature was really awful, but the more I've gotten to know how it works the more I appreciate it.

If you set it up correctly, handwriting recognition lets you input text very quickly and in a very flexible way.

Anyhow, here's everything you need to know about using handwriting on the N800:

Any mistakes or comments, let me know.

Yeah I've got to say though I'm not totally new to Linux. Sites like this one and yours make it a lot easier to delve in!
