It's finally weekend, and i have decided to take an hour out, to play with the OS2008 on N800. it is already a week since an official beta was released, but i have been considering hard whether to do it or not. Guess now you get the answer already ;)

most of the time we see FOSS as a good thing, because of its F. Free. some insist that F is Free as in Freedom, but not beer. But many just hope that beer will be as free as FOSS :)

while looking at Maemo's growth and development, i come across a new game project announced in the mailing list. It is called DragonFear. It is a RPG game similar to 80's bard's tale... One thing that caught my eyes is the following:

remember the post where i mentioned i got my SD card "crashed and burnt"? Byte did point me to an entry in maemo bugzilla with similar problem, but i doubt it is identical to my case. Anyway, after long procastination (the card actually sat at my office desk for a week!) i send the card back to Amazon. I must praise Amazon for its great service - an email was replied within 24 hours, and a refund was made 2 days after i send off the card. So bye bye Sandisk Ultra II. apparently somewhere in the Internet i read about a faulty batch. I think it is just my luck, i hope.

time to use and play with it... :) was thinking to myself, how to actually use such a device? Now i have some suggestions for you...
