Hi,

I was able to test real N770 at debconf (thanks Kate and Katariina :) ). It was pretty fancy gadget and i can think lot of different ways to hack with it.

Anyway there isn't in net really any information how much actual end user version devices differs from Nokias internal stuff in hackable point of view. So are end users/3rd party developers who are buying their devices from stores able to login as root in their device, update its inner software or compile new kernel etc? Or is it in some kindergarden mode which prevents user from breaking device or more advanced people from modding it?

Though 770 is not maemo, it is just first device for using sdk, but in maemo webpages there is mostly info for making user-mode apps so if it's planned that platform is wide open then it would be nice that in documentation there would be some info about deeper modification also , or if sdk is just for user apps not then least some comment about it.

So if here is somebody from Nokia who could answer this one.. ?

Hi,

I created a page in the wiki to collect documentation that you feel is
currently missing.  So instead of banging your head to the wall because
there's nothing but a big bunch of undocumented features you should head
to the wiki and write down your concerns.  That way we could get a
better idea what is really needed rather than us guessing what might be
useful.

The page is at http://maemo.org/maemowiki/DocumentationWanted

I added UI guidelines as a skeleton example as it was mentioned earlier
on this list, but you'll probably want to elaborate it.
