Not 3D harware (more MPEG4 decoding) but I understand Nokia have worked on IVA support. Is this work ongoing/likely to be continued? And on to 3D: I see that a PowerVR kernel driver (binary blob) is available for at least one platform using the 2.6.x kernel (PepperPad2: http://airlied.livejournal.com/39506.html), is Nokia able to pressure/request that Imagination Technologies produce a kernel driver & OpenGLES libs for the N800's harware/kernel combo and are Nokia planning to develop/integrate this (please!)? If Nokia don't plan to do so, could we, the developer community, have the up-to-date binaries so we can do it ourselves? Thanks, Simon
