SyncML support in Maemo5

Posted on 2009-12-13 18:58 UTC by Uwe Kaminski. Status: In development, milestone: Fremantle, Categories: Internet & Networking.

Maemo5 does not support SyncML out of the box. SyncML is a standard used to synchronize clients with a SyncML server. There are open source server software (like Funambol provides) and a lot of clients for nearly every plattform as you can see here. The idea is to have also a solution to synchronize Contacts, calendar entries, tasks and notes (and maybe more stuff) from the N900 (Maemo5) to a SyncML server.

Services (free and paid) offering SyncML can be found here.

Portrait mode support to the browser

It would be great if the browser could also be used in portrait mode. Some pages just fit better that way. Also for one handed reading it would be better to hold the device in portrait mode.

Furthermore all of the competition supports it, users might be wondering why this is not the case here.
