I just want to quickly remind people how to point to timestamps in youtube. Just add the following to the URL:

#t=m<minutes>s<seconds>

So, your link would look like this:

Thanks again.
Thanks! Was just thinking of how it was done yesterday, but wasn't bothered to google.... yes i'm lazy.

Or, do you mean the Nokia Maps application? Please, go read the release material, rather than wasting time posting questions that you could answer for yourself in less time than typing the question ...
Nothing is terribly wrong on the N900, but my E7 is a lot quicker at tracking the location. And I'd prefer not to see a step back there if I get an N9 as my main phone.

Me too...And I wonder why the UI team has not evolved the idea of swipe here as well? I can imagine this like when you flick/swipe the application up it closes. This can work both in app window and in task manager. Just flick it to top and it is closed.
I think swiping/flicking motions can be used extensively in UI thus leaving obsolete SW button out...Think of the great way the Maemo5 is acting - just touch screen outside the focused area and the focused element hides. No need for back or close button.

Or maybe a double, perhaps even a triple tap on the app in task manager so it closes? I'm not familiar with how precise the swiping is (but I assume it's lenient in interpretation because of all the swiping), could some of you hands-on people tell us? Thanks.

Why not just trace a X over the app window to close it?
That to me would be very intuitive providing the thumbnails were never smaller than a reasonable size.

Do we know if the task manager grid can be re-arranged?

If true that's soooo ridiculously late it's not funny.
I simply don't believe it wasn't possible for it to be in the publics hand's "now", if not mths ago.
Or at the very latest, 1mth from now....

It's gunna have a seriously hard time getting traction because the iP5 will prolly be out round then too.
And it prolly only just beats the iP4, doubt it will have a chance against the iP5.
They better price it cheaply (Elop won't) or there's a strong chance they're screwed, yet again.

This is being deliberately stalled by Elop & co, there's no other way to explain it.
H-M has been rock-slid for months & months, & hw prototyping is always in place, long before the sw solidifies.

Frack Nokia!!!!!!!!!!!! FTL!!
