complete sync with MS Outlook

Posted on 2010-02-22 21:36 UTC by Elvira Duavit. Status: Waiting, Categories: User Experience.

Why can't there be  a complete sync with MS outlook native to Maemo 5?  Installing all these widgets and apps confuse it, when the reason I buy Nokia is complete integration with my Personal Information Management Software of choice-MS Outlook.

Maemo 5 OS: Way of storing current weather information

Posted on 2010-02-22 22:09 UTC by Tom Hage. Status: Waiting, Categories: System.

Hi, there is numerous weather applications out there. And many users use such applications for widgets on desktop etc. But what if there was a way to store and retrieve the current weather information from the maemo OS ?

This could be useful for a number of application developers that don't want to implement weather information downloading, but could still have great use for the current weather information in their applications.

If a user is already downloading weather information, why don't share it with the device and let it become weather aware?

3G video call support for N900

Posted on 2010-02-28 22:20 UTC by Austin Aigbe. Status: Waiting, Categories: User Experience.

Develop a maemo5 application that allows 3G video calls to be made using the N900's front camera. The application should work more like a plugin (maemo5 plugin or service). A "make video call" menu item should be added to the "calls" option. 

As powerful as the N900 is, it is important to include this feature. It is an important feature for a 3G phone.

Use the FM receiver as a TMC receiver together with Ovi Maps

Posted on 2010-03-03 13:15 UTC by Zoltan Orosz. Status: Waiting, Categories: Location & Navigation.

I think it would absolutely awesome if one could combine the FM receiver with Ovi Maps, so the navigation app could use the traffic information available on FM frequencies when planning routes. As the N900 has both an FM receiver and a GPS, i think this could improve the navigation experience quite much. More info on TMC here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_Message_Channel
