Brainstorm

I have used a few smartphones/PDAs in the past (Blackberry, iPhone, Palm, Psion, etc.) and I find an integrated spellchecker vital on any device with a keyboard. I was expecting the N900 to have one.

Hi,

a nice alternative to calendar synchronisation is the use of caldav (wikipedia). It's an internet standard (RFC 4791) which describes a calendar extension for webdav.

It's supported by some widely used desktop calendars (Thunderbird/Lightning, iCal, Evolution), it's supported by Google Calendar and there are some caldav server already available (daviCal and calendarserver for example).

It's usable everywhere, the events are directly saved on the remote server and can be shared easily with other people. In case of offline mode, a cache can be used so the calendar is sync'ed with the remote server when online mode is activated (like it's done for the desktop counterparts).

Webdav and vcal/ical libraries can be used to build caldav support into the already existing calendar.

In order to help reduce duplicates, and allow users to find brainstorms faster, a way of searching brainstorms would be very useful.

When using n900 as mp3 player it would be awesome if volume keys worked even if display and keys are locked (and device under security code). It would help to adjust volume if i could do it "one hand in pocket" without unlocking device and entering security code. It just takes too much time and attention.
