A few people have asked me to check out the linux terminal mode on the Nokia N900. I’ve done that. Here’s a very quick video demonstrating ‘top’ and ‘ps’ running on the device.

Episode 40: Nokia N900 and BBC iPlayer – bad news folks!

Ewan — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 12:24:49 +0000

I’ve had a LOT of email from people asking me to try the Nokia N900 out with the BBC iPlayer. My expectations were high… but wait ’til you see the experience in the browser. It’s bad news.

I think we’ll need to hope the BBC release a stand-alone app for the N900 — that’ll work perfectly fine I’m sure.

So here we are with Part 2 of my Nokia N900 Maemo ‘play around’. I deliberately didn’t play with the device prior to filming so you’re witnessing me learning how it works and messing around with it real time.

You can find Part 1 of the first impressions here.

Episode 36: First impressions of the Nokia N900 Maemo device

Ewan — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 14:13:32 +0000

I just received the Nokia N900 Maemo handset and the moment I did, I took out the camera and recorded my experience. No manuals, no pre-checks ‘so I know what to film’ — this experience was entirely captured ‘live’.

As a result there are a few embarrassing points — for instance, I couldn’t work out how to switch on the device. Then I got the clock setting mixed up. Then I got very confused by the 1-2-3 setup application for a few moments.

So here we go… completely live (and only slightly edited, to remove the mundane waits — caused by me). Part 2 is uploading.
