I think pressing enter as well as having the option to press send on the screen would make texting a lot easier. Taking away the need to go from the keyboard to the screen therefore increasing speed.


For the people who use enter for formatting, there could be a setting somewhere that allows customisation of the enter key.

If Maemo/Meego is to be a serious contender in the business/smartphone arena, a decent email client should be an integral part of the offering.  Compared to other platforms, such as Blackberry (obviously), but also the iPhone or even S60, the Maemo email client is seriously underpowered, even for mundane tasks.

Profiles for not only ringtone settings:

• Set Bluetooth
• Set 2G/3G/Auto
• Startup/Stop OpenVPN or other tunnels
• Set IM states
• Set Volume
• Set Geolocation for IM
• Startup/Stop geotracking
• Startup/Stop FM Sender
• ...
• (ringtone/vibration settings of course)

(all of these settings at a time with profile change or groups of them)

triggered by events like:

• Menu  entry like the classic profile selector
• Defined WLAN is existant
• GSM state (if set to auto)
• Geolocation
• DBUS trigger
• ...

These MetaProfiles should be extendable (to create new modules for triggering and action)

The idea is to use our old iphones as controllers for the N900.

It could act as a game controller.

It could be a media controller strapped to your steering wheel or handheld that would make for safer driving.

It could be used to control a gps app.

I am thinking it could have multiple modes.  Just a touchpad, just a keypad,  or a touchpad and keypad for the n900.

Specific modes where it acts as a ps3 controller for the n900, or a gui built specifically to control the media and gps apps of the n900.

Here is the original thread if anyone is interested!:

Ok, at the moment, when touchscreen vibration feature is enabled, the phone
will vibrate whenever the screen is touched.The vibrations get incredibly annoying, haptics are there to help guide you when your using the phone not to inform you of every single time your touch the screen, it makes kinetic scrolling and swiping through desktops ect.. very annoying..

I find touchscreen vibration is incredibly helpful when typing on the onscreen
keyboard which I use frequently as there are times when sliding the phone out
is inconvenient..

Please implement this!
