ok my n800 has been unused for a long time so i dusted it off today and took it with me to work (i get more free time at work then home lol)

first some details;
the about screen says
version 5.2008.43-7

im guessing i need to update the firmware (any good custom ones?) i have a spare 8gig sd card (i used to clone the os onto the card i had before but that knowledge is now lost to me lol)

heres what i want to do with it,

it will be at home only connected to the net/lan via wifi

first up my server pc has vnc installed so i want to use a vnc viewer (preferably one that trys to conect every 10 minutes so that when my server turns itself on the vnc viewer automaticly connects)

i have a ps3, the remote control for the ps3 is a bluetooth remote, the n800 has bluetooth....you can see where im heading with this lol i want to use the n800 as a remote for the ps3 (and keyboard if possible)

any tips on how to acieve these two goals?

Well as for the PS3, there is BlueMaemo. I think the N900 version of it has support for the PS3, not sure if the n800/n810 version does (check the thread).

"Meamo!" sounds like what Zorro would say to catherine zeta jones... after she slaps him for looking at her dirtily...

So, you must have found 'someone', just like in any daytime soap opera, so 'who/why/what' is that someone that can take the place of.......um N800?

you can find a vnc viewer in the app repository... works perfectly. not sure about having it connect every 10 minutes, tho.
