Why do I have a feeling that this whole this is only going to show fruits to Windows division of Nokia
If this also helps bringing more apps to other Nokia platforms then great. All the better for developers and users.

I can't speculate about 3rd party projects. My goal is to have all the info in this thread well organized in that wiki page and then go to the guys at Nokia that are talking to these companies. As customers you could also contact them, showing them the URLs expressing the interest.
If any of these developers have already a contact with Nokia, then this effort might help getting the discussions into results. If not, then maybe that is a signal for them to contact us.

Btw, i remember shazam was showed off on Qt on N900 way back Maemo5 times, and there was a lot of talking and how it is easy to port and so on. and than was meego and introduced and same story here, only talks. I wonder, when talking would stop and doing would come... (shazam is just an example, i'm talking about those millions apps i hear everytime but never see them, while google talk less but do more)

** There is no password management application for N9 using the same encrypted password file format as any popular open source desktop password manager application like Password safe, Keepass or KeepassX. It would be much easier to keep passwords synchronized between desktop and phone, if both could use the same encrypted password database file.

** Have you tried reading/posting news in a browser? On a mobile? PITA!
** Generic nntp: access is what i'm after. If it allows posting i'll vote the author for pope
Addidional info:
- micronews-0.0.1.all.deb is some (Python?) reader for the n900 that is about 80% there but not optimised for mobile use.
- similarly claws mail does it but due to some ui-goof cannot be used (ironic, isn't it?).

- VPN. Really. There are free, but very unencrypted and therefor fully untrusted wifi hotspots all over. Without VPN I will not ever connect to those. And neither should you.
- +1 for UPnP client. Phako is working on that though, but this should have been available at launch.
- ODF editing capabilities. But I applaud the ODF viewer already present, even if slightly buggy.

Hello ,
Do you think we should focus more on universal apps , not too specific ?
We should definitely vote.
1.
*Skype video call - skype.com (Cross-platform )
** The most popural Video chat service.
And for me personally
2.
* Song tracking/recognition app - shazam.com , soundhound.com
(cross-platform)
** N9 is missing such app that could work both with the radio or mic recordings.
3.
* Recorder.
** SImple app that can record not only the mic but the conversations.
