Winetasting app

Posted on 2010-04-11 14:21 UTC by Jonas Backman. Status: Waiting, Categories: Utilities.

Hello!
I´m looking for a winetasting app where you could keep track of wines you have tasted. In this app you should be abel to add facts about the wine like what wine it is, apperence, nose, taste and food pairing. It would also be nice if there is a way to rate the wine and add a picture of the bottle.
Is anyone interested in helping me with this?

PTT Function

Posted on 2010-04-14 02:50 UTC by skjf kjdfsh. Status: Waiting, Categories: User Experience.

The Nokia N900 should have a PTT function to communicate with other Nokia N900s with the PTT function and other devices with the PTT function.

PTT stands for P.ush T.o T.alk. It works similar to a walkie-talkie.

Application dedicated for offline flash games

Posted on 2010-04-16 09:57 UTC by Robert Micallef. Status: Waiting, Categories: Games.

Sometimes flash games lag on the web browser. What if someone designed an offline flash player dedicated solely for this reason? It could have the simulated mouse by default (the one where you have to drag from the left in the web browser), and performance of these games might increase. The N900 has an advantage of support of millions of  flash games, but without GPU support (flash 10.1 hopefully), a lot of games lag. BTW I have no skills to do this. This is just an idea. Hopefully a good one.

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)

 

Iphone as an external N900 controller

Posted on 2010-04-16 21:13 UTC by Zac Cassini. Status: Under consideration, Categories: User Experience.

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.
