Advertisements Back in March we saw Theme Hospital Clone CorsixTH Beta 2 which I thought was already on the N900. It turns out it wasn’t. This video does show CorsixTH on the N900. There doesn’t seem to be any music (like 40% of the enjoyment was the whiny receptionist and 80s elevator/lift music) but it […]

You might have seen some screenshots floating around yesterday showing Google’s Chrome Browser on Maemo 5’s N900. Below is a video by Test-Mobile.fr demonstrating Chrome on N900 in action. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6C3t_UmwyQ] I still think the default MicroB rocks the pants off any alternative browser (being faster, better flash support, kinetic scrolling, multiwindow in multitask mode – […]

Here’s a really awesome application for your N900 called “Shake to Control”. Once you install it, you get a button/widget on your desktop that says “Start” (I’ve turned mine on so it says stop). This app utilizes your N900s accelerometer to control your media keys, hence “shake to control”. It works really well and it’s […]

TOSHL’s Expenses Tracker helps you manage your finances by recording your purchases. You just name purchases with tags and frequently used tags  appear next […]

Here’s a pretty cool find, an app built by iPhone blogger and coder Melfar (Vsevolod Buzinov)  with Qt. Audelicious: Music Appreciation app. I’m not sure if they are visualizations for music being played through the music player though that’s what I’m assuming. You’ve got a couple of spectrum analyzers and an amplitude meter. All three can be […]

I’m probably showing my age now, but I loved Theme Hospital as a kid! (Though I think I got into it quite late as I owned a platinum disk version). Hospital management, building clinics, dealing with patients and staff, and of course that soothing 80s elevator music. Haha. You might have seen the first videos […]

This is the biggest firmware update to date in terms of new features, and it brings a lot of the ones I’ve been hoping for since the very beginning (there’s still more I’d like to see, e.g. standard portrait in many more views, like music player. There is a chance they might not have yet […]

Sidepoll: [polldaddy poll=2917640] The N900 is infamous for its lack of portrait orientation. Sure you can get portrait in call mode, you can now get portrait very nicely in web browser and a “bug” can even induce the N900 to act entirely in portrait mode(demoed here with Gallery) but there is no official complete-portrait mode.
