While there are available multiple solutions for DSLR Geotagging, would it not be very convenient (and economical) to use the exiting equipment like the N900? This would eliminate need to carry (and purchase) a separate device.

Every week I have to take out the garbage. Unfortunately I am not reminded by my phone of such an important recurring task.

 

App Manager disallows installs that fill partition

Posted on 2009-10-29 07:52 UTC by David Falkayn. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Desktop.

The optification continues apace, but even if every app in the repository is optified, the chance still remains for an install-happy user to fill a partition (root or opt, etc.).After reading about the state that filling root puts the N900 into, preventing normal users from filling the partitions seems like a good idea...

This item is about the desirablity of including some checks and safety mechanisms in the App Manager.

Make it very easy for regular users to create Image Sets for mass download

Yes, I understand that creating an Image Set isn't all that difficult:

1. Create 4 images
2. Create a small config file pointing to the images

Of course, for the "regular" user this might not be so easy...

And, what if one wanted to package the Image Set for mass consumption?

 

Tag-based Menu for N900 applications

The default N900 application menu doesn't have categories for applications. After installing some applications it becomes a little cluttered. Hence, there are currently MyMenu and Catorize to help sorting things out, with sub-menus.
