- Richard G. of WOM World (and others)made a Tetris-like Facebook app. You can play it in your browser.
- Maemo Wordpy skyrocketed in functionality. Jonathan Greene writes all about it.
- Jenn at Pocketables benchmarked the Internet Tablets' browser.
- Kate Alhola hacked USB OnTheGo on the N810 and has the best write-up on the subject to date.
- Dr. Ari Jaaksi notified the community of a very nice Maemo Technology Overview
- Here's a favorite hack of mine: Using a Nokia N95 as both a Bluetooth modem AND Bluetooth GPS on the N800.
- Tim Samoff found himself with a SPARE N810 - and he's giving it away.
What do you feel developers or users doing WRONG when developing/releasing/giving feedback on open source applications?

Not to toot my own horn, but I've been running true OTG switch host mode and swap USB keydrives for a few weeks:

You need that - which contains 5 wires internally, much easer than the scrape and peel on the connector. Just pull back the sheath and shielding and short brown to black.
Then get a fairly common mini-b male to standard female A adapter (casecooler.com has them, but so does many other places). I've also managed to open up one of these cheap miniB-AF adapters and short pins 4 and 5 near the back with some conductive silver ink and it works both in the n800 and n810 with an UNMODIFIED microb to minib adapter since the 5 wire adapter carries through the sense line.
Oh, I forgot about the other interesting things: I have a WiSpy working (intermittent lockups) in auto-host mode, my moving map program for the Zaurus runs with Qt3 added to the pad (full GPS tracking with path draw, maps from US Census tiger database, extremely fast and compact compression). I'm trying to do something with video, get my EVDO modem to work off the usb port (though my Cradlepoint 350 travel router works well as a stopgap). I'm setting up the development environment and will probably set up KDE... And got my mac format iPod to mount (time to port gtkpod).
I'd do more but I'm too busy downloading all the neat things others are doing too.
This is worse than when I got a new system and installed ubuntu - I do embedded linux, but have been running the kernel since 0.99.
Hi Dan. As far as I can understand, you're running this blog through Blogger and not wordpress.
I do the same for mine (far less viewed than this ;) ).
Did you ever try to publish something through the Blogger client on OS2007? In my experience, it always crashed both under OS2007 and OS2006, and we cannot (still) install it under OS2008.
Is there any app that allows Blogger publishing to be used on ITT? Or (going a bit OT), is there something that can run under Symbian? I own an E51 also (which I find an ideal companion to the ITT, BTW: small, full featured phone also with great voice capabilities)
