When I follow the Ovi Store link/icon on my N900, it takes me to the Ovi Store, but I can't find Angry Birds on there. In fact, there is very little on there.

If I log in on my PC, I find it OK.

Is it 'just me', or do other people see this too?

Max.

While using my PC, I tried 'send to mobile'. When the SMS arrives, and I follow the link, it tells me 'This item is not available for your country.'.

Is this just because I happen to be in China at the moment?

Nice try I really thought that was going to work...

Unfortunately, once I've downloaded it, I get the unhelpful message "Unable to install Angry Birds" :/

Do you have bounce too?

I'm trying to demo the n900 here to someone, and they were particularly interested in Angry Birds and Bounce...but I'm running out of options now :/

I refer you to my previous message where I say I tried it, and it tells me that it isn't available in my country.

Download and install rootsh from extras, close app manager, move the file to "Nokia N900" in the file manager, open terminal and type
Code:
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/angrybirds_1.1.0_armel.deb
I have bounce, will up it in a bit.

I download using apt-get, it caches debs in /var/cache/apt/archives.
I moved this to /opt and symlinked it back into /var/cache/apt/archives, whenever I reflash I delete the one in the firmware and resymlink the one in /opt.
My archives folder is 221.4M
