The phone has been avaliable for a good few months now and im interested in hearing how your getting on with it/any cool apps your liking.

So far for me, the only let down is the battery life which can really take a hit with some heavy usage.

Programs I'm loving so far are Qtirreco (remote control app) which I have yet to find a tv/xbox/dvd player/sky box/digi box it wont control Also Loving the SNES emulator which runs perfectly, just a little fiddly to control on the N900's keyboard. Hundereds of different applications avaliable now inc. Mozilla and Google chrome too

I have only ran out battery once,

Must have apps are;

Flashlight
Joikuspot
Wireshark
Level


Navigation is pointless no turn by turn,

Looking forward to OBD software to show car information on it.

Functionally its a step backwards from the N95, but has a bigger screen, worse battery, lack of mms support, shite camera.

First phone I've actually used for things other than a phone tbh. The browsing on it is spot on and I download films and use the tv out all the time.

Battery still grinds my gears right enough.

Sounds as if you've set it to NTSC rather than PAL? There's a tv out icon in settings under general I think.

There is an app for MMS called fmms in the maemo catalouges somewhere. you need to download another program called fAPN to set up the connection to the mms service but once its done it works great

Any link to this ODB software you mentioned? I havent heard about this!
