Very useful day to day app. I use it regularly. Thanks !!
Does just what it says. This is a must-have addon until the stock software gets this feature included.
Great! Thank you for adding one of the missing bits.
I felt something was missing when I upgraded from the N800 (still 3rd party app though).
Would be nice if you could have finer control (as in the N8x0)
Does what it says on the tin...very useful. And who give's it 1 star because the repos are down?? Ridiculous.
Ian, if you had bothered to read the announcements on maemo.org's front page, you would know that the repositories are down.
I'm trying to install this in App Manager, but it just keeps saying "Downloading 'Simple Brightness Applet' failed"
It is simple, it is working, it is useful. I like it!
Does what it promises. Useful for those late dark nights or middays in sunlight.
great, i have it on the lowest level to save energie and if i need more brightness i can simply switch. thank you :)
any know how much batt life this app can save? is it significant? or is it more for aesthetics?
Does the N900 support the 12 or 16 levels of brightness of N8x0? If so, it would be nice see finer control.
The applet does exactly what it claims. Useful if you frequently change brightness manually.

Very good, very useful, must-have.
Personally, I'd like another step between 4 and 5. I see that 4 is "64" and 5 is "255" which is a very big step and there are times that I'd really like to have a 4.5 step.
