| 01:46.58 | chx | i am in Canada |
| 01:48.15 | Luke-Jr | chx: N810 is fail |
| 01:51.11 | chx | oh sure |
| 01:51.31 | Macer | wtf |
| 01:51.37 | chx | please tell me what other device is there that can be had under 300 bucks delivered with a 4" 800x480 res screen that runs Linux |
| 01:51.55 | chx | I am not picky about the flavor of Linux. |
| 01:52.08 | Luke-Jr | chx: SmartQ 7 |
| 01:52.16 | chx | oh i forgot to mention, yes |
| 01:52.18 | chx | I need a keyboard |
| 01:52.22 | Luke-Jr | chx: bluetooth |
| 01:52.22 | chx | very, very badly need. |
| 01:52.25 | chx | Not good |
| 01:52.28 | chx | two device, fail. |
| 01:52.32 | Luke-Jr | chx: Zaurus SL-C860 |
| 01:52.44 | Luke-Jr | oh, only 640x480 |
| 01:52.45 | Luke-Jr | good enough |
| 01:53.02 | Luke-Jr | make the SmartQ + keyboard into 1 device |
| 01:53.06 | Luke-Jr | shoudln't be too hard |
| 01:53.12 | chx | call me back when that happens |
| 01:53.21 | chx | also? isnt the SmartQ some noname chinese product? |
| 01:53.23 | chx | I am wary |
| 01:53.35 | Luke-Jr | better than a bad-name american product |
| 01:53.36 | chx | Having the N810 on me is sometimes mission critical. |
| 01:53.53 | chx | And for the few weeks I had it , it was pure joy |
| 01:54.04 | Luke-Jr | chx: you must not use the GPS |
| 01:54.06 | chx | it runs Skype and ssh and there are many, many characters visible in the SSH window |
| 01:54.09 | chx | I dont |
| 01:54.15 | chx | I have a Holux M1200 reciever |
| 01:54.17 | Luke-Jr | I see. |
| 01:54.25 | chx | You can't beat that receiver if you are walking |
| 01:54.26 | Luke-Jr | I suppose if you don't need the GPS it might be tolerable. |
| 01:54.31 | chx | no, I dont. |
| 01:54.50 | chx | no matter what they build in , they cant beat the M1200 anyways, so why bother? |
| 01:54.55 | Luke-Jr | haha |
| 01:55.10 | Luke-Jr | but does the M1200 run Linux? ;) |
| 01:55.15 | chx | ???? |
| 01:55.19 | chx | it does not run anything |
| 01:55.24 | chx | it's the size of an usb key |
| 01:55.41 | chx | it sits in the backpack and feeds GPS over BT |
| 01:55.46 | chx | feeds my phone , feeds my N810 |
| 01:55.55 | chx | not at the same time, but as necessary |
| 01:56.06 | Luke-Jr | I see. |
| 01:56.13 | Luke-Jr | but it must run something |
| 01:56.24 | Luke-Jr | dumb hardware can't do bluetooth, can it? |
| 01:56.26 | chx | btw the MTK MT3318 chipset is so much better than the sifr iii for pedestrians |
| 01:56.27 | Luke-Jr | certainly not GPS O.o |
| 01:56.38 | Luke-Jr | who said anything about sirf iii? |
| 01:56.49 | chx | well, that's the only usable chip besides the MTK |
| 01:56.57 | chx | I only Nokia uses some crap in E90 and N810 |
| 01:57.02 | chx | that's why i said, why bother? |
| 01:57.09 | chx | I dont care about the GPS |
| 01:57.12 | chx | I agree it's a fail. |
| 01:57.14 | Luke-Jr | N810 has a GPS5300 chip |
| 01:57.15 | chx | So what? |
| 01:57.19 | chx | It's not perfect. |
| 01:57.20 | Luke-Jr | which has potential, if we could get docs |
| 01:57.32 | chx | Aside from the GPS chip, the device rocks. |
| 01:57.50 | chx | It's only now that I had it and suffered a week without it I see how hard it rocked. |
| 01:57.54 | chx | So I bought another. |
| 01:57.59 | Luke-Jr | heh |
| 01:58.06 | chx | sitting on a bike in the gym |
| 01:58.10 | chx | and being able to Skype chat |
| 01:58.12 | chx | that's bliss. |
| 01:58.12 | Luke-Jr | well, it's about as useful as a pad of paper for me right now |
| 01:58.25 | Luke-Jr | especially as there's only internet when I'm at home |
| 01:58.35 | chx | As my life revolves around Skype chat and SSH |
| 01:58.36 | chx | well |
| 01:58.39 | Luke-Jr | and the keyboard sucks too much to make it better than going to my desktop |
| 01:58.49 | chx | I would love a better keyboard of course |
| 01:59.35 | chx | If i would be the DIY type, i would grab an N800 and http://shop.crackberry.com/freedom-slim-keypad/14A42A5051.htm?utm_source=GoogleProducts&utm_medium=shopping_engine&utm_campaign=GoogleProducts this |

| 02:07.33 | chx | a day? |
| 02:07.37 | chx | dunno, really long |
| 02:07.53 | chx | also, i have a pocket battery |
| 02:08.18 | Luke-Jr | O.o |

| 02:08.50 | chx | erm |
| 02:09.06 | chx | with the GPS receiver and the BT radio on? |
| 02:09.06 | Luke-Jr | which translates to ~3 hours in reality |
| 02:09.07 | Luke-Jr | lol |
| 02:09.17 | Luke-Jr | dunno, BT is too complicated for me |
| 02:09.22 | chx | well i guess it can standby for a month. |
| 02:09.41 | chx | with the wifi and the bt radios off, the cpu and the ram consumes miniscule amounts of power. |
| 02:09.55 | Luke-Jr | yay, it can be useless for a month! |
| 02:09.57 | Luke-Jr | XD |
| 02:10.02 | chx | no |
| 02:10.19 | chx | for me the N810 is the reassurance that i can leave my post any time i wish |
| 02:10.28 | chx | and if i get a call , i can immediately SSH in |
| 02:10.30 | chx | it's freedom |
| 02:10.38 | Luke-Jr | if you happen to be near an AP |
| 02:10.46 | chx | I am always near an AP, my friend |
| 02:10.56 | Luke-Jr | so not really freedom |
| 02:11.02 | Luke-Jr | freedom within a very small area |
| 02:11.07 | chx | I have a Nokia E51, I told you, and that a) works as a BT modem for the N810 b) runs JoikuSpot. |
| 02:11.13 | Luke-Jr | oh, right |
| 02:11.48 | chx | so there is always broadband wherever i go |
| 02:12.02 | Luke-Jr | with a low cap? |
| 02:12.12 | chx | 6gb? |
| 02:12.15 | chx | a month? |
| 02:12.16 | Luke-Jr | yeah, low XD |
| 02:12.19 | chx | um |
| 02:12.37 | chx | that's a crapload of ssh and skype im traffic :p |
| 02:12.57 | chx | ok, so i browse a little too, yeah |
| 02:12.58 | chx | and...? |
| 02:13.12 | chx | i leave the broadband guzzling tasks for my desktop |
| 02:13.22 | chx | i cant watch 1080p movies on the N810 anyways :p |
| 02:13.44 | Luke-Jr | 6 GB/mo is 2.42 KB/sec |
| 02:13.58 | chx | if you use it 30*86400 sec then yes |
| 02:14.12 | chx | but if you use it for a few ten hours the whole month? |
| 02:14.27 | Luke-Jr | hmm |
| 02:14.39 | chx | i do NOT need high speed, i need low latency |
| 02:15.01 | chx | what i do, i could do on dialup, and i actually did |
| 02:15.09 | chx | back then it was Unix talk |
| 02:15.15 | chx | but not much else changed :p |
| 02:15.24 | Luke-Jr | dialup is faster than 6 GB/mo ;) |
| 02:17.03 | chx | Luke-Jr: you have a strange view :p |
| 02:18.37 | Luke-Jr | chx: perhaps I am too idealistic |
| 02:18.51 | chx | perhaps |
| 02:19.00 | chx | i spent *years* yearning after the perfect device |
| 02:19.05 | chx | It never happened |
| 02:19.11 | chx | so I am happy with the N810 |
| 02:19.14 | Luke-Jr | heh |
| 02:20.08 | chx | as i said above, if you say ' i need at least 480 vertical lines, a keyboard and skype ' |
| 02:20.18 | chx | there are aint many devices in this world. |
| 02:21.17 | Luke-Jr | I am personally anti-Skype |
| 02:21.26 | chx | the Sony X1 got so close to be ideal |
| 02:21.37 | Luke-Jr | as far as I am concerned, it is a proprietary non-standards compliant and trojan-like VoIP app |
| 02:21.47 | chx | but I felt violated when i touched the Windows OS |
| 02:21.51 | chx | I ... can't. |
| 02:22.13 | chx | now, if they release one with Android... |
| 02:22.13 | Luke-Jr | install Gentoo on it :þ |
| 02:22.17 | chx | ???? |
| 02:22.23 | chx | you can run Linux on the Xperia X1????????? |

| 02:24.29 | Luke-Jr | XD |

| 08:48.44 | Dieterbe | lbt: oh well, basically I'm looking for a portable (fits in pocket) device which I can do all my personal organizing with (so a hardware keyboard is a good idea), it must have a very open OS (i'm not too fond of android which' userland is only java) so I can run all tools i would run on my normal desktop (perl/c things using libc/python/...) like mplayer, mpd, mutt, vim , urxvt, bash and such |
| 08:49.08 | lbt | proposes N810+Mer |
| 08:49.13 | Dieterbe | lbt: oh, and it should also be usable as a phone. that's the problem with nokias n8* stuff |
| 08:49.59 | Dieterbe | and i would prefer to use a headset (earbugs with microphone), so the size may be a bit bigger then a regular phone as i don't intend to hold it next to my ear much |
| 08:50.38 | lbt | N900 may well be the one |
| 08:50.44 | Dieterbe | yeah i think that too |
| 08:50.44 | lbt | it'll be less open though |
| 08:50.48 | lbt | and pricey |
| 08:50.55 | lbt | wants one |
| 08:51.19 | Dieterbe | less open? |
| 08:51.26 | Dieterbe | how's that? |
| 08:51.35 | lbt | Nokia can't/won't open everything |
| 08:51.53 | lbt | should say "less open than Mer" |
| 08:52.28 | lbt | Mer is the community effort (with Nokia assistance) to make an open distro for N8x0 |
| 08:52.50 | lbt | http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer |
| 08:52.51 | Dieterbe | well i don't mind if the device drivers and such are closed |
| 08:53.05 | Stskeeps | it will be as hackable as n8x0 but some blobs may be needed on top of a open system for hw interfacing |
| 08:53.19 | Dieterbe | i can live with that :) |
| 08:53.39 | lbt | Stskeeps: I met Dieterbe in the uzbl area |
| 08:54.04 | lbt | http://www.uzbl.org/ |
| 08:54.05 | Dieterbe | if i'm free as a bird in userspace, that's what matters most to me |
| 08:56.06 | lbt | historically the maemo OS hasn't had a huge repo backing it up |
| 08:56.14 | lbt | but it's been 'portable to' |
| 08:57.05 | Dieterbe | what do you mean exactly? |
| 08:57.37 | lbt | The standard release points to a complete repo |
| 08:57.47 | lbt | but it is very sparse. |
| 08:58.04 | *** join/#maemo kcome (n=kcome@prod03.pptp.iad.witopia.net) |
| 08:58.22 | lbt | So you end up porting loads of libraries etc |
| 08:58.32 | Dieterbe | is that a problem? |
| 08:58.42 | lbt | and then you find that it wasn't based on a snapshot of a known distro |
| 08:58.48 | lbt | so version mismatches occur |
| 08:58.49 | *** join/#maemo kkrusty (n=cache@5ac51507.bb.sky.com) |
| 08:59.04 | lbt | it becomes harder than it should |
| 08:59.32 | lbt | but, if you can code it, you can run it |
| 08:59.44 | lbt | in Mer we've based on Ubuntu |
| 09:00.05 | lbt | so we provide all the maemo deltas to ubuntu base libs |
| 09:00.19 | lbt | so we have all the 'touchability' of maemo |
| 09:00.30 | lbt | but can apt-get install any ubuntu app |
| 09:00.46 | lbt | it may be crap to use (screen/keyboard/mouse) |
| 09:00.50 | lbt | but it should run |
| 09:01.03 | lbt | so 'apt-get install mysql-server' |
| 09:01.06 | lbt | works |

| 09:01.32 | lbt | for standard maemo that'd take weeks of backporting a chain of libraries |
| 09:01.51 | Dieterbe | lbt> it may be crap to use (screen/keyboard/mouse) <-- can't you just use the same UI stuff as maemo then? |
| 09:02.00 | lbt | ah |
| 09:02.12 | lbt | I meant installing a non adapted application |
| 09:02.33 | lbt | eg trying to run Qt-designer on a tiny screen is insane |
| 09:02.38 | lbt | but it runs |
| 09:02.41 | *** join/#maemo igagis (n=ivan@ns2.vsev.lanck.net) |
| 09:04.02 | lbt | a lot of what Mer/maemo does is adapt UIs to make them work on small, touch devices |
| 09:04.11 | lbt | hence the interest in uzbl |
| 09:04.32 | lbt | the idea of a seperate touch UI 'controlling' it |
| 09:04.58 | lbt | and the idea of uzbl linking to the same DB as the contact mgr |
| 09:05.47 | Dieterbe | what issues do you have with the tear browser? my guess would be it's easier to hack on tear to integrate with your stuff then to use uzbl |
| 09:05.57 | slonopotamus | lbt, do you know why geany from extras doesn't have vkb? |
| 09:05.57 | lbt | quite possibly |
| 09:06.09 | lbt | Mer Extras? |
| 09:06.35 | slonopotamus | lbt, we're on #maemo :) |
| 09:06.44 | lbt | is lost |
| 09:07.21 | lbt | Is there any chance it's using fremantle code? |
| 09:07.50 | slonopotamus | no idea |
| 09:08.00 | lbt | some apps are being ported towards fremantle and I think there are assumptions about a hw kb |
| 09:08.11 | lbt | otherwise, no, sorry |
| 09:08.43 | slonopotamus | lbt, doesn't h-i-m automagically work with everything gtk-based? |
| 09:08.50 | lbt | Dieterbe: I liked the idea of a controllable browser |

| 09:09.40 | GnutOnMobile | hello |
| 09:09.56 | GnutOnMobile | Hi lbt |
| 09:10.04 | lbt | hey GnutOnMobile |
| 09:10.22 | lbt | I just started Mer-Qt last night |
| 09:10.33 | Dieterbe | lbt: uzbl is at this point very aimed towards keyboard control, there are no gui widgets and no mouse gestures and such |
| 09:10.56 | lbt | Dieterbe: ah, I was hoping it was 'socket' controlled |
| 09:11.06 | lbt | so no assumptions on input |
| 09:11.31 | lbt | you heard slonopotamus... we can't assume a keyboard and there are horrid hacks to fake X-events and the like |
| 09:11.47 | Dieterbe | lbt: yeah it is socket controlled |
| 09:12.12 | lbt | GnutOnMobile: I'd like to discuss the git branch Qt thing sometime when you're at a real KB |
| 09:12.27 | slonopotamus | lbt, ... if you need hacks, you're doing smth wrong :) |
| 09:12.42 | lbt | Dieterbe: so echo "scroll up" | uzbl |
| 09:13.45 | Dieterbe | lbt: scroll_vert <variable> | uzbl :) |
| 09:14.04 | lbt | yes |
| 09:14.27 | lbt | though there are challenges to make that 'sync' with precise finger movements |
| 09:14.46 | Dieterbe | lbt: look at "command syntax" and "variables and constants" @ http://github.com/Dieterbe/uzbl/blob/928fc65c34e8360e7019f4181530377cc6374432/README |

| 13:57.20 | Macer | Stskeeps: no.. "recycling" |
| 13:57.28 | gomiam | anyway, back to my question. Does anybody use Google Maps data for Maemo Mapper? |
| 13:57.35 | Macer | gomiam: i don't sorry |
| 13:57.36 | ShadowJK | I thought google maps data didn't work |
| 13:57.44 | Macer | can you even use google maps? |
| 13:57.50 | gomiam | ShadowJK: it used to work, but it doesn't any more, it seems |
| 13:57.51 | Macer | i thought it was against the lic |
| 13:58.00 | gomiam | (at least as far as I have tested) |
| 13:58.06 | ShadowJK | I would suspect google blocked it pretty soon? |
| 13:58.13 | gomiam | I would need to tcpdump a bit more date to be sure :) |
| 13:58.16 | Macer | heh |
| 13:58.33 | Macer | google won't even let android download the damn maps |
| 13:58.40 | gomiam | ShadowJK: not too soon... I think it still worked in spring. |
| 13:58.46 | Macer | i was driving to cleveland and when i hit the boonies i was just a dot in the middle of nothingness on my g1 |
| 13:58.53 | gomiam | not that I'm too worried, I can always fallback on Open Street |
| 13:58.55 | Macer | thank god it had a compass |
| 13:58.58 | Stskeeps | gomiam: go see talk.maemo.org threads |
| 13:59.00 | ShadowJK | Macer, did you still have data connectivity.. |
| 13:59.11 | Macer | i don't know how the iphone 3g guys did it without a compass |
| 13:59.13 | Macer | grins |
| 13:59.14 | Stskeeps | there's probably someone with same issue |
| 13:59.15 | Macer | ShadowJK: no |
| 13:59.29 | Macer | i lost it.. because i was in the middle of nowhere |
| 13:59.30 | gomiam | Stskeeps: will do... though the last time I checked there was no easy URL to drop on Maemo Mapper ;) |
| 13:59.49 | Macer | i had to drive like 40 miles before it picked up a gprs data signal from god only knows where |
| 13:59.56 | Macer | a secret military base in the middle of indiana? |
| 13:59.57 | ShadowJK | Macer, so the maps were blocked by the failure of your operator's coverage? :) |
| 14:00.04 | Macer | ShadowJK: yes |
| 14:00.05 | Macer | heh |
| 14:00.06 | ShadowJK | rather than google |
| 14:00.13 | gomiam | anyway, I must go see some Roman ruins in a bit. Thanks for taking the time to talk it over :) |
| 14:00.26 | Macer | but then i asked "why doesn't google maps just download the route so you don't need a data connection all the time?" |
| 14:00.44 | gomiam | have a nice afternoon (or morning or night, choose the one that applies) |
| 14:00.45 | gomiam | :P |
| 14:00.45 | Macer | and someone told me it was against the lic |
| 14:01.02 | ShadowJK | google maps on symbian also doesn't download in advance, but if you open it and scroll along your route it might stay in ram :) |
| 14:01.09 | Macer | yeah |
| 14:01.11 | Macer | that crap sucks |
| 14:01.16 | Macer | and it doesn't adjust to speed either |
| 14:01.26 | Macer | i was goign like 90mph and it kept scrolling |
| 14:01.43 | Macer | because by default it gives you like 1 block at a time or something equally retarded but it isn't much |
| 14:01.49 | Macer | i had to zoom out in the middle of driving |
| 14:02.12 | Macer | i expected the zoom to adjust for speed unless you were nearing a turn or something |
| 14:03.27 | crashanddie | those are starting to be some pretty funky algorithms |
| 14:03.29 | ShadowJK | Nokia maps works better in this regard :) |
| 14:05.10 | Macer | <PROTECTED> |
| 14:05.24 | Macer | i always wondered.. if it knows what it's supposed to be why can't it just change it? |
| 14:05.27 | Macer | :) |
| 14:06.08 | ShadowJK | it knows what the sum is supposed to be, but it doesn't know what the individual numbers that make up the sum are supposed to be |
| 14:06.20 | ShadowJK | therefore, if the sum is wrong, it concludes that the individual components of it must have an error |
| 14:07.41 | Macer | but there are only so many combonations of numbers that can result in the sum |
| 14:07.52 | Macer | combinations.. i'm eating combos :) |
| 14:08.02 | Macer | waiting for my son to wake up |

| 14:10.09 | Macer | lol! |
| 14:10.41 | Macer | so you're saying a repair off of a crc wouldn't be practical through trial and error? :) |
| 14:10.57 | derf | Sure it would. You'd just need a much, much larger CRC. |
| 14:11.23 | RST38h | moo all |
| 14:14.42 | Macer | derf: sounds like the perpetual machine |
| 14:14.55 | Macer | trying to get more output than input |
| 14:15.18 | derf | No, by adding more bits to the CRC, you're adding more input. |
| 14:15.28 | Macer | at the cost of output |
| 14:15.45 | Macer | what is the point of having a 5G CRC for a 1MB file? :) |
| 14:15.56 | derf | You'd be able to correct a lot of errors. |
| 14:16.02 | Macer | lol! |
| 14:16.03 | derf | Including errors in the CRC itself. |
| 14:16.21 | Macer | i'm using the google gears stuff |
| 14:16.30 | Macer | just to see what it looks like :) |
| 14:16.37 | derf | I mean, this is basically what NASA does for interplanetary communication. |
| 14:16.53 | derf | They use codes with a _lot_ of redundancy built in, because the error rate is high. |
| 14:17.23 | Macer | ok.. that is a very specialized reason to do so but i get your point ;) |
| 14:18.04 | derf | But this is also what RAID arrays do in configurations with redundancy. |
| 14:18.27 | ShadowJK | EDGE just sends error codes until receiver says it has enough to reconstruct message :-) |
| 14:18.32 | derf | E.g., RAID5 uses an entire disk's worth of checksums. |
| 14:19.07 | ShadowJK | CRC is very inefficient for actually correcting errors though, but it's fast for detecting errors |

| 15:28.04 | ShadowJK | I would guess that lowering the beacon interval on your AP would help |

| 15:28.21 | amr- | oh? i'll give that a shot |
| 15:28.26 | ShadowJK | since it's probably wifi powersaving causing tablet to appear absent for too long at a time or your computer giving up too soon |
| 15:28.51 | ShadowJK | or you could try disable powersaving on the tablet, I guess. It's in advanced when you edit a connection (but affects all connections) |

| 17:18.00 | esaym153 | ok cool, I guess I can use vim then... |
| 17:22.06 | esaym153 | how does the cpu on the n810 compare with a 350mhz pentium 2? |
| 17:22.21 | esaym153 | better/worse? same? |
| 17:22.38 | Stskeeps | uses less power obviously |
| 17:22.51 | esaym153 | well I am talking about performance |
| 17:23.04 | amr | i have absolutely no idea |
| 17:23.09 | esaym153 | I am building an app and plan on getting a n810 |
| 17:23.10 | amr | sorry |
| 17:23.20 | esaym153 | trying to figure out how bloated I can make it .... |
| 17:23.23 | amr | heh |
| 17:23.57 | esaym153 | runs fine on the 350mhz pentium II ... |
| 17:23.58 | slonopotamus | esaym153, 400mhz of n800 cpu is ~10 times slower than my desktop athlon 64 3000+ |
| 17:24.40 | esaym153 | well...that is not really a fair compare... |
| 17:24.54 | Stskeeps | esaym153: which kind of app really? |
| 17:25.04 | esaym153 | app for taking notes |
| 17:25.23 | esaym153 | it is pretty simple |
| 17:25.32 | esaym153 | but I want it to be quick |
| 17:25.33 | slonopotamus | esaym153, it allows me to know how long things'll take. |

| 17:47.06 | Macer | i mean it wasn't like a little opensolaris in the corner.. it was this huge bannerlike bold GIANT letters stretching across the screen.. and i even told him "it's opensolaris" .. and i guess he didn't understand me and was like "ubuntu is nice" |
| 17:47.13 | Macer | :) |

| 20:33.59 | esaym | fellows, yes or no; should I buy the n810? |
| 20:34.24 | Stskeeps | if you can hang on a couple of months i think it'd be worth it |
| 20:34.30 | Stskeeps | unless you're going for the price level |
| 20:34.46 | lbt | in a couple of months the used price will be down |
| 20:35.02 | lbt | buy now from someone here ;) |
| 20:35.42 | esaym | Stskeeps: don't want to spend more than $200 |
| 20:35.45 | esaym | on anything |
| 20:36.00 | Stskeeps | fair enough, then go for the n810.. the next device will probably be >200$ |
| 20:36.16 | esaym | Stskeeps: yea like $700... |
| 20:36.20 | RST38h | Sts: If he hangs any longer, he won't be able to buy N800. Or N810 for this matter |
| 20:36.36 | wazd | esaym: next device will be much more advanced than the iPhone 3G S |
| 20:36.50 | wazd | esaym: how much will it cost do you think? |
| 20:36.59 | RST38h | Ah by the way |
| 20:37.06 | esaym | wazd: I don't need advanced, I need some pda to put my note taking app on |
| 20:37.23 | RST38h | Speaking of "advanced", http://regmedia.co.uk/2009/06/23/nokia_97_9.jpg |
| 20:37.27 | wazd | esaym: then n810 is the right choice :) |
| 20:37.49 | wazd | RST38h: wtf is that?) |
| 20:37.56 | esaym | how long will nokia keep making the n810? |
| 20:38.17 | lbt | haven't they stopped already? |
| 20:38.38 | esaym | lbt: you could still buy from their store a few days ago |
| 20:38.54 | lbt | ah selling != making |
| 20:39.00 | esaym | hmm |
| 20:39.08 | lbt | don't ask me |
