[maemo-users] getting started?

2006-09-15 Thread Miles Fidelman

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).


Thanks very much,

Miles Fidelman

http://maemo.org/ is essential.
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationCatalog2006 and
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationRepositories are very useful

I've just discovered http://maemo-hackers.org/wiki/MaemoPackages

I'd like to know if you succeed.  Personally I'm afraid the PIM use case
won't be useful (to me) until Nokia releases a library for sharing the
single hardware alarm between multiple applications in OS2007.

Maybe someone in the open source community will get there faster?
Dates 0.1 is nice, but not useful without recurring events and alarms.
I haven't tried GPE yet, but screenshots aren't very encouraging.

GPE is not bad, ich imported all appointments from my Palm. Biggest 
shortcoming: can't sync with desktop (at least nobody managed that so far).

Thanks,
Rainer
