As I suspected with Full Portrait Mode !! I was waiting for FULL portrait mode as this has been written several places on the web !! Anyway portrait mode is not working well, and MS Exchange Server 2003 support is still not working for me (so all my colleagues with iPhones and Nokia N95/82s are capable of syncing their jobmails, but still no me!)..

Anyway, would be REALLY nice to get a proper FINAL conclusion if FULL portrait mode is coming for the N900 from some official sources so that I know how soon I have to sell my N900 to still get some money back for it !! (or not)

Where can we ask for a final answer about Full Portrait Mode??

I do not want to cary around this device if full portrait mode is not coming!!!

Everything seems a little faster which is great! but does anyone know if this fixes the random restart problem? I have the pmconfig file changed so now that its updated can i change the pmconfig file back to normal?

Lol. Son, there is nothing like FuLL portrait mode coming to N900. If you want the portrait mode, sell the device and buy the iphone or wait for the maemo 6 device (which may contain portrait mode).

I'm sorry, but i'm 90% sure that it won't ever happen. It was too bad that some who reviewed N900 said so. We got the portrait browser that was said to be coming by Nokia, that's all.
That 10% i left there would be if we can update N900 to run Maemo 6/harmattan that gets released this year.

Rumour is that next major update for N900 is in March/April with Qt 4.6.

after upgrading the firmware and checking the version I get

2.2009.51-1.003

is this the right upgrade?

also does anyone know if this upgrade will fix the phone book sync over bluetooth while using a car kit?

thx

Did you try sync via the Petrovich app? Worked fine for my Pioneer AVIC.

I thought that codes that starts with *# will be fixed on this build.. But I guess not..

Oh well it's not a biggie..

But I noticed that MicroB is SO much faster in loading pages now.. x-term gets a new icon too..

Ok and qgil I know that you guys said that full portrait for the UI is coming in Maemo 6.. But can you at least meet us in the middle on this? Can you guys at least add portrait mode for:

- Conversations.

- Media Player (only when playing songs).

- and finally add a T9 keyboard option to the virtual keyboard? (just like the s60v5 ones?) for MicroB. (T9 Keyboard only detected when the N900 is turned into portrait mode, other-wise it only shows the normal, current, keyboard layout).

Did try that (select contacts) send via bluetooth, didn't work

I have a BMW 2009 and I'm using the manufacturer's built in car kit. Used to work fine with all my previous nokias N97, E90, etc...

Really? Seems like a step backwards to me. Showing the next 5 events, regardless of when they are would be my preferred behaviour.
