Now what is the hidden meaning behind chinook? Chinook? The heavy-lift helicopter with two rotor? Does it mean we're getting another "rotor"? Could it be Skype? The next rotor, with the previous one being Gtalk? Or could it be the sledgedog it is referring to? Does it mean they made it faster now? It must the Youtube then, yea? Oh my, they made it faster! No wait, it could be OpenGL! Finally a driver for powerVR? It can't be could it! No no, it must be both of them! With Skype! And real Rotors for better wifi AND Wimax reception! Maybe we're getting wireless USB host too? A miltary grade Laser stylus? Transformer-esque stand? OpenGL accelerated Skype with Youtube plugin, and wireless Rotors with lasers???
Oh my, i can't keep track of all these!

Anyone noticed new features of Chinook beta ?
HAL added, with libhal as wrapper. Supported devices:
# keyboard (open/closed, exists/doesn’t exist)
# ambient light sensor
Well, that tells us something :-)

No accelerometer - so I guess screen rotation is still not on the menu!

for example:
-a SMS script that uses the Betamax Voip services (Voipbuster, SMS discount etc. etc.) to send messages to people in my contact list on my nokia S60 phone.
-a TV streaming script over wifi that can starts my PC at home (wake up on LAN), and use VLC to stream all of my TV channels to MPlayer on my N800.
(I hope to make an applet like the radio applet, but one that starts a TV stream)
I know there are some applications in development that can do (somewhat) the same things: a phonelink program, and a myth Tv client, but it is much more fun to script them yourself using python :-)
Also your own python script may be easier to use than those applications in development, because you only put in those features that you really want. (very very simple scripts).
using python you can access VERY powerful and useful features of your hardware very easily.
The biggest problem (i believe) for newbies is the GUI. By default you can use only PyGTK (with hildon specific extentions) for your graphic user interface.
GTK isn't very easy in my opinion (compared to simple python scripts ).
I mostly use Eagle as my GUI toolkit (a wrapper on top of PyGTK, to access basic stuff very easily), because I hate it when i need to spent more time on the GUI than on the scripts themselves. (also it shouldn't be necessary if you just want some buttons, and lists etc.)
