Mara - works fine for me. Did you set it up via the "tools" menu - found in lower right of writing area?

On another note. They did fix the hand writing in xterm

An annoyance is still if using the soft kybd (not a Bluetooth one) and you tap the Ctrl button, the keyboard retracks so it takes another tap to get it back again to put the letter for Ctrl you want in.

The disappearing SD card (and associated corruption) problem that was solved in the latest os2007 firmware has returned. At the moment only dissappearing cards and hard reset of the unit (removing battery) but I don't want to try until I see a corrupted card.

So, back to os2007 until a Nokia solution.

FOUND IT!!

About the thumb activating the full screen keyboard!

You have to double-tap with your finger!

That's why to someone it was working with two fingers! it was actually registering a double-tap.

Damn them, why did they not put it into the help file at least ?
I flashed my tablet twice until I discovered it...
I've noticed that there was no "pressure" setting near the "activate by finger tap", so.. a ring rang ( ) in my mind...

Can anyone else confirm this?

I did see the tools menu. I did try changing things there to see if it helps... no luck. If I assign the D-pad center key to open thumb board, I can get the thumb board up.

In the original post I meant that automatic selection of thumb board when screen was pressed with a finger does not work. Even the suggested "multi-touch" (two thumbs at the same time) does not bring up the thumb keyboard. Every time only the stylus keyboard shows up.

Anidel, thanks for the hint. I have to try it once I get my N800 in my hand...

Mara did you read my last post ?

Double-tap with the finger is the solution.

EDIT: posting at the same time Go try it. It always works.

I think there was a change in the way how OS2008 handles memory cards, especially when initially mounted. It does run some quick disk check, and if errors are found it doesn't mount them or mounts it as read only.

(At one time on earlier OS2008 test images this check was so picky that none of my 4GB or 8GB SDHC cards never mounted... while they worked fine on PC with external card reader.)

One thought about disappearing cards.
I've noticed that, after a firmware flash, it does not tell the user to disconnect the tablet from the computer.
Leaving the USB cable connected will umount the cards in order, for them, to be mounted on the PC.
They should tell people to remove it before restarting the tablet after a successful flash.

May be people disconnect the cable when it's starting the mount process on the PC ?
