Maybe it's a silly thought, but what about doing the UI stuff in javascript within a browser window? Actually, that's a question I'd like answered - it's what I've been thinking of doing for a project, but haven't gotten around to yet. How is the javascript implementation for browsers that run on the 770? ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Re: Nokia return/refund policy [ was Re: [maemo-users] ITOS 2007]
I'm in a similar boat. I bought my 770 about 4 months ago, so I'm now stuck with an obsolete unit. I'm reminded that back when Apple was making the Newton, they offered early purchasers an exchange policy when the newer models came out - it wasn't free, but it was reasonable, and motivated me to trade in my older Newton for the 2100 (the last model made, and still a really nice machine). ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Re: [maemo-users] ipass at t-mobile hotspots?
There used to be some ways to directly access IPASS without a client, but something has changed - I was hoping that somebody knew if this is still possible - or if somebody is working on an IPASS client for the 770. Miles Acadia Secure Networks wrote: Miles, I don't believe that IPASS has a client for Linux. Here is the url to the www page at the IPASS www site where their client side and server side software are described and there is no mention of a *nix client. http://www.ipass.com/support/support_sysrequirements.html They don't even have a client for Windows Mobile 5.0 as of yet.

Re: [maemo-users] connection options
Felix, Thanks! Now if it were only so easy under Windows. Sigh... Miles Felix Windt wrote: On a Mac, turn on wireless, click on the icon in the status bar and create a connection. Remember to specify a password by clicking on "Show Options" - even though it's just WEP, that's still better than nothing. To route connections from that network, go to the System Preferences, Sharing, Internet and turn on Internet Sharing on the built in Ethernet connections. I am not sure you can use bluetooth as you described - bluetooth devices advertise their category. I would expect that unless you laptops advertise themselves as modems, the 770 would not be able to use them. Also, obviously the range for bluetooth would be much smaller and you'd have to be near the laptop and at that point might as well use the laptop for your browsing.

Using an ad-hoc wireless network might be simplest. Well sure, but that requires some kind of routing on the PC, and basic connection sharing doesn't like using real IP addresses. I need something to act as a router or proxy. Any suggestions? Thanks! Miles ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

[maemo-users] getting started?
Hi Folks, Now that I've just received my brand new 770 - any suggestions regarding mailing lists to join (besides this one), tutorials, how-tos, key web sites, and so forth? My intended use is a combination of low-key development and as a PIM (if I can pull the pieces together).
