@Tiago,
What's the problem with that? You can get a bearing eventually.

You probably already know this but when widgets or hildon-home crashes then only Nokias own safe widgets are loaded.

I love the swirl too, with it i don'teven have to drag my finger to zoom, just place it against a spot on the screen and wiggle it clockwise and counter

I'm with you in regards to cap's, the downsides with them severelly outweights having dual/multitouch, resistive multitouch has the best of both worlds (GAH! damn, now i got Hannah Montana's theme song looping in my head Dx



Ah, a complaint i forgot in my first post, you can't take a picture or record a video, nor play stuff with the original media player during a call.

Another thing i forgot, you can only have a single level of folders on the apps menu, no subfolders.

@sjgadsby: Try "right clicking" on an icon in the menu (press and hold for a second or so)

Yes, that's what I want to disable. I don't want to move my icons. I only trigger the process accidentally.

My interest in a magnetometer is for motion tracking (like for controlling games) and detection of magnetic fields in general, it would also be quite handy for planetarium programs, point towards a star in the sky and have the virtual telescope automaticly go to it.

And saving the mag and the accell data streams with timestamps while recording a video would probably make the job of camera tracking softwarea much easier.

Ah, you want disable it, sorry, misread your post.

* the resistive screen.
* the fact that you can't link to 1 specific picture folder (e.g. Portfolio)
* When you zoom in the gallery, and you hit the side, the pictures changes to the next one (frustrating!)
* no support from nokia
* terrible GPS connectivity withous an internet connection (Sygic)

on the other hand, the phone had a LOT of positive points. But after breaking down 3 times, i had to get rid of it. I loved you so, N900, but you give me heart conditions.

@Tiago Tiago

Exactly for this planetarium app a compass is useful.

It has to be a compass that works also without motion.

A GPS compass only works with motion.

But my "FM-radio-strength"-compass works without motion once it is calibrated. The calibration can be done manually or by the GPS compass during motion.

3 times? During what time length? Are you sure the problem was with the N900 and not somthing external from it?
