I believe there are examples of capturing video in python and c on maemo wiki/web somewhere, no? I know in time with Nokia's support unit will have apps it needs...or rather hope. Maemo kind of competes with work done by handhelds.org....which is taking more traditional desktop approach/metaphor. Enough people have to buy device for people to write apps but with no initial apps to speak of not many will buy device. I'm sure many people buying unit have no idea it's kinda empty software-wise for now...not complaining...just stating facts. mike Juha Kuikka wrote: > I found that load-applet > (https://garage.maemo.org/projects/load-applet/) runs fine on N800.
