With the change to EABI for OS 2006/2007, the same binary will no longer work. The only options for Citrix are: * An open source client (I don't know of one, but I've not really looked) * Citrix open sourcing their old one * Citrix producing an ARMEL binary * Citrix producing a proper Maemo port * Some theoretical/impractical static code analysis/recompilation to convert an ARM binary into an ARMEL binary. I'm fairly certain this is impractical, even if it was possible.

I'm curious to know as well why you chose to go the direction you did rather than contribute to an existing project? Since I have no programming experience I am locked into whatever is out there. I try to follow the developments of the software from various points to try and make educated choices, and I'm astounded at the large number of people working towards a common goal not working together? Please don't take this as an insult in any way. I am as frustrated as you are in the lack of complete apps available.

Re: [maemo-users] Usage
Why do you associate PDA w/necessarily having or not a PIM? PDA (to me) means same thing as palmtop. I look at N800 as PDA/palmtop...not UMPC/tablet. My iPAQ 4700 "pda" can do everything the N800 can do and more (at this point anyways). ssh, rdesktop, vnc, etc. I sure don't consider it a laptop replacement though...neither do I the N800. There are devices for your wrist (wach), for your hand (pocket pc, pda, palmtop) and larger for your hand (umpc, tablet pc). mike James Sparenberg wrote: > All, > >Just so I can see how my usage patterns and view of the 770/n800 mesh with > the community I'd be curious to know if I'm alone in the way I treat my noki. > > It is to me a palmtop not a PDA.

Re: [maemo-users] Usage
To me my 770 is a laptop replacement. ... However I get the feeling most here see it as either a PDA (like a palm) or as a multimedia device (ala windows mobile or an iPhone). It's good for all those things, but there are more people that listen to music or use a calendar than that run multiple data centers ;). I use mine for all of the above, and when asked what the device is I tell them "it's like an ultralight laptop, among other things". For me the #1 app is osso-xterm and what I miss the most is ping. Miss it no more... there is a busybox replacement with ping integrated, and an fping package listed on the wiki Application Catalog. Have you tried them? http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationCatalog2006 Thanks, Mike ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

All, Just so I can see how my usage patterns and view of the 770/n800 mesh with the community I'd be curious to know if I'm alone in the way I treat my noki. It is to me a palmtop not a PDA. I use it to increase my mobility and decrease my load, carrying it instead of a laptop. To me my 770 is a laptop replacement. I'm in charge of multiple data centers and it's a joy not having to lug a laptop out to dinner etc, in case I get an emergency call. However I get the feeling most here see it as either a PDA (like a palm) or as a multimedia device (ala windows mobile or an iPhone). Forgive me, I'm accustomed to thinking in use cases I guess. For me the #1 app is osso-xterm and what I miss the most is ping. James ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
