N810 maemo device program open for submissions

Quim Gil> Thanks ... i'm sorry english isn't my native language and i ve don't understand very well. But i ve apply it now :)

So for those have the same problem like me don't use the direct link, i don't know why but login don't work with firefox. Go to http://maemo.org and then log in into your account and then you can ask for a ticket by clicking on a button 'apply' on your profile information.

When you edit your profile there's a button on the top right-hand side that you should click to apply for the device. You then fill out details, reasons why, etc.

I'd missed this as it was partly hidden under the floating toolbar thing (my own fault for having moved it over that side I suppose).

That's why I asked the question :)

Thank you for a brilliant device that is rare example of a company responsive to customer demand. I luv to see how easy it is to add location based applications around the GPS subsystem like a maps / twitter thingy. So ya throw me one.

I have tested many applications on N800 and N810. I love this gadget very much but unfortunately i don't have one with me. I would like to have one and use it to bring awareness in the student community.

i doesn't understand very well how can i ask for a device ? and where ?

Hi Benoît and the rest of people commenting here. Can you please READ THE ANNOUNCEMENT above? It is explained there i.e. where it says "In order to apply go to your maemo profile"

If you comment here but don't apply there your comment is worth nothing. If you apply there and comment here you comment still worths nothing (sorry) since what counts is the application.

As said plenty of posts above, having a thread with 500 comments is just senseless. Thank you.

PS: what are the maemo profiles for? I will blog about this one of these days - now they are useful for the device program.

I just want to say thanks to offer Developpers opportunity to get at lower price an n810. It's help all the maemo community to get more open source softwares.

Thanks.

I've created my Maemo profile, but it doesn't actually do much (atm - I see your comment about extra things being added).

For the time being should we all extol our virtues on our own websites and provide a link to them via the Maemo profile?

Cheers,

Simon

I'd love to have one; Unfortunately I still don't have a x86 platform to develop maemo stuff on, so I'm bound to python. (Hint: provide x86_64 sbox and maemo packages for ubuntu!) On the upside, the wife should be getting one soon. I've two projects that would need some updating for the new platform.

Plus I have something cooking specially for mobile devices; more on that later ...

Good work on the best Internet Tablet yet, can't wait to have one. Miss you guys! Cu around.

With My friend we have tested N800 and we are fall in love with it. We started to develop some aplications for it. I don't have my own so i want to ask you to get one.

As I am a commuter I believe this piece will help me in many ways, in time connection (GPS), passion and so on.

I have tested many applications in N800 and N810. I love this gadget very much but unfortunately i don't have one with me. I would like to have one and use it to bring awareness in the student community.

Thank a lot, Quim Gil.

Quite bad my country (Thailand) is not in that list. :( However, I will try to contact my American friend for this then. T.T

By the way, this program is really great. Many developers have skill but has no money, for example, student, like Johannes Höhn said.

I'm Symbian application developer. I'm studying hard in Maemo now. I wanna port my Symbian applications to Maemo and I have started porting process in emulator already and I wish to test them in real device like N810. This program may help me.

Really thank for this program. :)

I am interessted in getting a N810 for my development. Frank from Munich, Germany.

Yes, the program is limited to Nokia online shops and they are present only in some countries. Sorry about that, this is all we can offer. There are services out there that provide a US address to buy stuff and then they ship to you, but I have no idea how reliable they are.

Brazil and other countries will have tablets for sale at some point but since they don't have Nokia online shops they are not covered by this progra. Our apologies again, from maemo there is very little we can do on that side. btw for a list of countries where the N810 will be sold check my totally unofficial list at http://flors.wordpress.com/2007/10/18/what-the-nokia-n810-means-for-maemo-developers/#comment-99

And to all this people saying "please include me" I will insist just once more: please apply, posting here a comments doesn't count and in fact doesn't help. :)

Please include me as a developer and test in ESA headoffice of a Globle Corp.

Good idea. With this, people with few money, like students, can afford an device for development, too.

Please include me in the Nokia 810 project

I'm a Maemo user and blogger from Manaus. I really want one.

Will N810 be available for purchase in Brazil?

Too bad it's so localised in where applicants can come from. I really enjoyed the 770 program since I couldn't have got one any other way, even if I was able to afford it and it was good fun hacking for it.

Also, if you want to apply for the program... just apply. Having +500 comments here makes no sense. Thanks!

Unfortunately, it seems the link provided is down at the moment...

I want a device, too.

I'm from Manaus, Brazil developing with Maemo and Mozilla stuff. I really appreciate a N810 to improve the development in this platform.
