Hi, I am a new user of the Maemo platform, thanks to the Nokia N900, so please please excuse me if anything seems out of order, but feel free to correct me.

It would be useful to select applications using the keyboard.
User Experience feedback improvement(s)
Posted on 2009-12-21 21:56 UTC by Randall Arnold. Status: Under consideration, Categories: User Experience.
The Problem:
The Maemo ecosystem could benefit from a rich, internally-consistent feedback mechanism or mechanisms supporting bug reporting, managed application testing, application rating and related activities. Currently, bug reporting is difficult for average and/or new users, testing is too ad hoc and ratings systems are not fully utilized.
The Proposal:
Develop a solution or solutions that makes these activities easier on users and puts feedback opportunities in more appropriate locations and contexts.
Discussion:

Providing support for Generic Access Network (GAN)/Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA)
Posted on 2010-02-05 17:08 UTC by Paul Grodt. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Internet & Networking.
The N900 does not currently support Generic Network Access (GAN), which is often also referred to by its implementation, "Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA)". This is a feature that, if implemented by a mobile provider, allows acess to a 3G/GSM network through a generic Internet (IP) connection. In the case of the N900, this would be an 802.11 Wi-fi connection. This allows voice calls and SMS in places that have poor or zero cellular signal reception (e.g. basements, shielded buildings). This also effectively bypasses the need to purchase a separate Femtocell.
