improve group chat functionality in conversations

In skype group chats it gets easily annoying to see every message popup like every other normal IM.

there should be an option to hide group chat notifications

adding "Views" to the calendar destop widget

Posted on 2010-02-10 17:02 UTC by Z P. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Desktop.

I have a calendar "daily schedule" with a lot of events that occur daily or several times a week. If I make them visible they are displayed along with other events on the desktop calendar widget. The problem is that the important rare events get lost among the daily schedule events and if I make them invisible - I don't see them and also don't hear the alarm thet I set for them.

Add Scrollbar in addition to kinetic scrolling

Even though the kinetic scrolling works fine, sometimes in long lists/pages/content it is not easy to get where you want to go fast.
You have to flick your finger a couple of times.

Lets say you have 100 folder (images for example) and need to find something and you dont know if its in folder 80,81,82. In file manager you end up flicking and flicking till you are in folder 80. If you dont finde it there you go one folder up and the flicking flicking starts again.

Stylus and finger friendly UIs

Posted on 2010-02-14 11:36 UTC by Tom Tanner. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Desktop, User Experience.

The N900 has a high-resolution (800x480 on 3,7") and a very accurate, high-precision resistive touchscreen. This makes it possible to draw with fine detail, write, select, or press small buttons on the screen using the stylus of the N900. In addition the fingers can be used for coarse input.
