The notion of a universal contact card (which is really what this is) has been tried with other services - Plaxo comes to mind - but this much more straight forward. yourname.tel from anywhere gives you one-click communication access through the channel of your choice.

Depending on the second device for connectivity just drains two batteries On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 8:53 AM, John Holmblad jholmb...@acadiasecurenets.com wrote: Jonathan, in fact, given the ease with which the N800N810 can be tethered to an EVDO or HSDPA capable mobile handset, my own biggest complaint has been with my electron guzzling mobile phone which lasts all of ~20 minutes when running with the EVDO turned on and tethered to the N810. Clearly it would be better to carry only one piece of electronics vs two but, if I can solve this power consumption problem by upgrading to a new mobile handset I will be satisfied with a 2 device solution. Maybe there is a market for a fairly simple layer 1 pocket device (evdo/hsdpa/LTE/WIMAX modem + a big battery) that also supports bluetooth for tethering to whatever smart device the user has on hand.

Re: N810 with GSM radio
well - Nokia is definitely starting to roll out tri-band hsdpa devices which makes this much easier to deal with. I'm still excited by the idea of a 3G capable tablet. On Tue, Jan 13, 2009 at 3:23 PM, Wayne Fiori dev9n...@gmail.com wrote: It would make the device far too expensive for its market. The cogs on the radio device would add to the base cost. There would be different European and American model -- each market uses different frequencies for GSM/EDGE. That homologation for manufacturing would add additional costs. The repair depot logistics would change as well. There would be real FCC (and the equivalents) regulatory requirements to be met. Worse, you would need to purchase service from a mobile phone provider. At that point the cost increases would push customers to an iPhone or similar smart phone. IMO, the best advantage that the tablets have is being free of the entanglement mobile phone service providers. -- =W On Tue, Jan 13, 2009 at 12:13 PM, fcassia fcas...@gmail.com wrote: I can't believe Nokia is so dumb.

It was slow (Edge) but it worked. But the Razr had to be replaced. I decided not to replace it with another Razr because I wanted a real keyboard AND I wanted the much faster 3G data transfer capability (it still has Edge if 3G isn't available). Based upon user reviews, I narrowed my search to two phones - the Motorola Moto Q and the Samsung Black Jack II. Both are smartphones and each has the above requirements plus they're both quad-band for world travel (another requirement). In the end, I bought the Black Jack II because it's smaller. When I got the phone, I paired it through Bluetooth to the Black Jack II. What I didn't do, however, was actually attempt to connect to the Internet (you know what they say about assumptions...). On a recent trip I discovered that I'm unable to connect my N800 to the Internet through the Black Jack II and according to ATT, the Black Jack II doesn't have that ability using Bluetooth. This past Friday, I again contacted ATT and they're willing to switch out the Black Jack II for the Moto Q since I'm within the 30-day grace period. So I have two questions that I'm hoping someone can answer: 1. Just to verify, has anyone used Bluetooth to connect a N770/800/810 device to the Internet through a Black Jack II? If so, maybe we can communicate the differences in our setups offline. 2. Has anyone used Bluetooth to connect a N770/800/810 device to the Internet through the Motorola Moto Q? I don't want to get the Moto Q if it won't work although I'm guessing it will if the Motorola Razr did. In advance - THANKS! Nick. Hi Nick, I've had problems connecting my 770 to a phone from ATT. The customer service would keep telling me that I could not use Bluetooth because I had not purchased the tethering package. I was at the end of my contract and so, I switched to T-Mobile. It not only connects vis Bluetooth to do GPRS, I am also able to use Bluetooth to dial out to a 56K modem pool. Its slow, but works in a pinch. Now, this may not apply to you, because you seem to have purchased the Edge package, but for me, it was one more reason to not go with ATT. cheers, Sameer -- Dr. Sameer Verma, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Information Systems San Francisco State University San Francisco CA 94132 USA http://verma.sfsu.edu/ http://opensource.sfsu.edu/ ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users -- Jonathan Greene +1.914.750.8740 AIM / iChat - atmasphere gtalk / jabber - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype / Gizmo - JonathanGreene blogs - http://www.atmasphere.net/wp / http://www.maemoapps.com ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

The what? I'm sorry, that's just funny. I don't think I've ever heard of anything like that. You either have a data plan or you don't. Either way, if your phone is capable, you should be able to tether to it. It would be funny if it weren't true. Several providers hamstring their handsets to prevent tethering unless you sign up for it as an added feature.

Re: Cell Phone As Modem
Nick - I am almost positive it's because you don't have a phone that supports DUN which is the only method supported between a phone and the tablet. Just because they are paired does not mean they can connect for a tethered connection. OPP is Object Push - http://www.bluetooth.com/Bluetooth/Technology/Works/OPP.htm There's a link here - http://palmsolo.jaiku.com/presence/21231832 - for an app to install on your winmo device to get it to work. Or you can try installing http://www.wmwifirouter.com/ which will let you create an adhoc hotspot from your mobile phone using the data connection and your tablet connects over wifi. I use JoikuSpot on my Nokia phones sometimes and this method is actually more reliable than DUN most of the time... though the phones get pretty hot and it does seem to use more battery as well.

So I don't think my issue is a DUN vs. PAN issue. I think the issue is on the phone side. The N800 is paired with the Black Jack 2, it just can't connect. The Bluetooth symbol on the N800 briefly changes then the connection drops. In looking at the N800 phone section in the control panel, the Black Jack 2 has only one supported profile (OPP) while the Razr had three although I didn't write them down before I erased the Razr connection from the N800. I'm wondering (haven't done the research yet, still recovering from the trip) if the OPP profile is the limiting factor, e.g. I'm missing a supported profile in order to make it work. Thanks!

Re: Microb Versus Mozilla Fennec

The charger pin size is standard nokia and will be US, but it should be easy to find a plug for your country. I believe the maps that come pre-loaded will be based on the country / region of purchase as well, but as Ryan noted you can download additional or replacement maps from within the application. Someone had posted a link to a direct download via computer on the list previously if I recall correctly.

Luckily my employer sends me to the SD-West developer conference next month which takes place in Santa Clara, CA. Now I thought I could buy one there. What do you think, is this a good idea? Are there any major issues to expect, except the different keyboard layout? Does the US charger also accept the European 230V/50Hz input? The N800 one did, but if not, I think it's a standard Nokia charger, easily purchased for European voltage. Are the GPS maps for Europa installed? I know that the maps can just be downloaded from within the program, even on the N800 which does not come with maps. Since I'm only for one week there, where should I go to get one?

Re: Nokia buys Trolltech
Trolltech had recently acquired fonav which sound quite interesting according to this snippet - Unified Communications Platform The FONAV solution is expected to be incorporated into Trolltech's Qtopia product line and offers a presence-based, unified live in-box for calls, email, instant messaging and voice messages. Presence is also integrated into the address book, and the user can easily control how and when he wishes to reach others providing an always-on connection to the user's social network. The Platform also creates new revenue opportunities for service providers, including broadband and VoIP operators, wire-line operators and web portals/communities. The Unified Communications Platform is fully SIP standards based and includes SIP compliant VoIP services with calls made to and received from any number. Instant messaging uses the open source Jabber (XMPP) protocol allowing users to communicate using text or voice with any open community such as Google™ Talk. Email includes POP3 and IMAP access and WiFi is compatible with 802.xx standards with secure access using hardware-based WEP and WPA. Hotspot authentication for selected wireless ISPs is also supported. The connected device space is booming with innovative devices – from the Nokia N800 to the Apple iPhone, or the Sony Mylo. A rich software platform is a key ingredient to building devices like these, said Ram Fish, CEO, FONAV. By combining forces with Trolltech, we now offer a rich open standards and open source platform for device vendors and a way of helping device manufacturers achieve fast time-to-market with a high quality user experience. Qtopia provides an excellent foundation to integrate multimedia, web and other technologies and enables phone manufacturers and service providers to innovate quickly at lower cost. http://trolltech.com/company/newsroom/announcements/press.2007-06-19.3922517821 On Jan 28, 2008 10:28 AM, Alberto Garcia [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Mon, Jan 28, 2008 at 03:24:30PM +, Matt Emson wrote: I hope that QTopia will be offered as an alternate, not a replacement to Maemo. http://www.nokia.com/A4813580 - go to webcast According to Kai Öistämö (around minute 9): I want also to make clear that the key driver for Nokia doing this acquisition is not to develop a Linux-based mobile device.

Re: Nokia NXXX With A Phone!
I can't imagine Nokia commenting on this publicly ... I agree though - dedicated wireless would be very cool. The first take will be the WiMax enabled device which should show itself sometime in Q2 from what I've read. You'll need to live in a place that can take advantage of this of course, but at least the wireless is or can be always on. A SIM slot and 3G radio would be killer imho though. Nokia does not currently offer a 3G device that works in all regions so they'd have to make multiple sku's which is perhaps not what they want to do given the lower number of sales (presumably) the tablet brings in compared with more widely sold handsets. They are certainly into selling open (carrier free) devices though so who knows... On Jan 24, 2008 11:38 AM, Aaron Newcomb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: OK enthusiasts, when is this going to happen?

Re: Nokia NXXX With A Phone!
It's pretty painless to switch the SIM card out. As long as it's open and not packaged from the carrier there should be no issue. I purchased an N95 NAM (north american) from the Nokia Store and put my iPhone ATT sim in and have been using it that way since ... no issues - though the the MMS service is blocked, thanks to Apple and ATT. My data service is smooth and I've got 3.5G service now. If the radio and SIM slot are there you could use it anywhere and on any carrier that supported the bands.

Re: how to access media content from home network to maemo device?
I've been testing Webot.com and it seems to work really well, in the browser with minimal fuss. You can stream music and view photos... no video for the time being.

I imagine this would require an application on my home server to index and stream the content, as well as a maemo client app to browse and access the content. Or maybe there's software that is not maemo specific but just allows access through a mobile device friendly web interface. Is anyone using maemo to access a home media library and if so, how?

Re: offline installation request
You can install this way for applications that are offered as straight .debs or you can choose to manually browse the repositories in the browser to download. The time it would take though to download would be the same as you'd be needing for a straight install so I'm not sure how much time you are really saving. The advantage of the repository installer file is that you can see updates from the apps you've installed and if there are additional library files required they usually get installed at the same time preventing (many) errors.

Re: help!? my N810 seems dead(ish)
do you have a backup? if you can get the nokia screen, perhaps you can reflash and try a fresh start. - Original message - I have contacted Nokia support on this, but I am hoping one of you might be able to help me out, if there is a magic incantation or button sequence or battery removal and wait that might fix it. Basically, my Nokia had a low battery yesterday (I got the warning: Your battery is low or somesuch). I plugged it in to the provided wall charger and didn't look at it until this morning. This morning it was dead and would not power on or register that it was plugged in (no green LED, no disconnect the charger notice). I got in my car and plugged in a (brand name) Nokia car charger and the device registered the charge and I was able to power on the device. I ran maemo mapper with GPS running on my way to work with no problem (30 minutes or so). Disconnected the car charger and took it up to my desk, where I powered it off (using the power button menu) and plugged it in with the wall charger (I brought it into work today). It registered that it was charging (green led, little charging battery icon) and I let it sit for over two hours. I noticed that instead of the usual unplug the charger notice, it had flashed up the Nokia splash screen (blue Nokia on white background - no status bar) then the backlight shut off, and then the display entirely shut off. I then tried a few combinations of things, including plugging/unplugging the N810 (wall charger still), taking the battery out for a bit and putting it back in. No love. I have gotten the nokia splash screen a few times, but it again shuts down the backlight almost immediately and then the screen shuts of a little after that. Any thoughts for troubleshooting this? Do I just have a bad unit? I would hate to send this in for repair when it is something I can easily fix on my own (or worse, if it won't even show the problem for a repair tech...) I am headed out to my car and will try the car charger again - maybe I just have a bad desktop charger (that would be annoying, it is only 3 weeks old)... I very much appreciate any suggestions, including the 'black magic' that is sometimes necessary to get devices out of a hung state.
