I found that the majority of videos I want to play...regardless of format...stream poorly on my 800.

Perhaps we need code customized to video chip...but given notorious issues around device drivers and linux...how long will we be waiting for this? mike Humberto Ortiz Zuazaga wrote: > I've been testing video playback on the N800.
