Apparently the new "Additions" / "Improvements" were from global feedback.

The old Ovi store would have warrented 0 out of 3 stars.
Now with ALL the improvements I can now give it 0 out of 5 stars.

Now theres some user feedback

It now promises to "remember me for two weeks"...

Better then not at all I guess.

BTW: the rating system is only as good as the input...

I was surprised to see WiKiHow had a 3 star rating.

When I fist tried it, it was not optified, loaded everything into rootfs, and would not remove itself after a failed install.

With 3 stars now I figured they must have repaired it or suttin'. I almost went through the nightmare again until I re-read the 5 reviews.

Every one, including mine said it was crap.

This app is directly incompatible (Can not be installed) with the emelfm2 utility installed on the N900. >> http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...7&postcount=10

After it attempts to install (and fails), it leaves at least 2.5 MB in rootfs. If emelfm2 is removed, WikiHow will install but now adds an additional 3 MB (approx) in rootfs).

Fortunately rootfs is cleaned up once a complete install is removed but remnants of the failed installation will remain until then...

Some may not know to remove emelfm2, reinstall WikIHow, and then remove the full install of WiKiHow to clean up the mess it left when it failed. If they don't, they may be stuck with a jammed up device.

Most reviews (3 out of 5) gave it one star. The guy who had the most to say about what was wrong with it, gave it 5 stars

Another review that was only one word "useless", gave it 3 stars

These obvious mistakes when averaged with the others, gave the POS an acceptable 3 stars.

Oh well, a 3 star turd is still a turd...
