It's working here. Once it was installed, I was even able to update it to a newer version from within the Components window of MicroB. Don't give up all hope.

MicroB spell check on the other hand, I've had no luck with.

I'd put my own money on winter this year, but that's just me.

Well, merging MicroB with trunk isn't a "do-it-in-a-day" proposition, it takes time and it takes testing. In a big project like Maemo, major changes to the code are frozen a few months in advance of release to allow for testing and bug fixing, and there simply wasn't a usable Gecko release to merge with before the freeze date.

Simple timing, really.

Well, if you want to go and compile the MicroB svn, all the cool new development for Fremantle will be taking place there (well, for the engine, anyway).

Unless you've magically figured out how to get the AGPS data to your GPS over Bluetooth (you can't), then it's purely placebo.

As an aside to everybody wanting to use AdBlock, don't bother. It's mostly just a good way of slowing down the browser. Go with an ad-blocking CSS file and hosts file instead.

I've never heard of a Bluetooth GPS that can receive AGPS data from its host. For most decent Bluetooth GPS units it'd be largely pointless, anyway.

Is there a way to just disable ADblock plus without having to uninstall it ?
