In case if you are an owner of smartphone Nokia N900  and also the PlayStation 3 by happy coincidence, you have a great chance to save on the purchase of additional gamepad for the latter. You need nothing else than straight arms and a little time for that. It is sufficient to just download Extras-Devel emulator BlueMaemo Bluetooth from the repository, then to make a simple configuration and interface with the console. And that’s all – you have almost a full SIXAXIS (trade name of gamepads for PS3) at hand, the only difference of which from the original is that all the buttons here are with touch control.

The only serious drawback of this emulator is the absence of analogue joysticks, which are simply absent on-screen applications. So such “gamepad” is  fitting more for simple arcades of PSN, rather than to control the characters in serious actions or car races. In addition, it is not very convenient to press the “Shifts”, which in case of BlueMaemo Bluetooth are located in the corners of the screen.

Such a space is open for harmless trolling! You can, for example,visit an electronics store and control the exhibited console at the demo booth from your device quietly from the corner.

Some Nokia N900 British users encountered a problem while charging their Internet tablet. It is manifested in the following problem: the plug charger too snugly connects to the connector of the device. As a result, several users pulled the microUSB port of the Nokia tablet entirely when they tried to unplug the charger.

The representative of Nokia commented on the situation: “The users that are confronted with this problem must contact the local service centers of Nokia. The same guarantee applies not only atot Nokia N900, but also to other Nokia devices. We apologize for any inconvenience.”

600 megapixel processor and 256 megabytes of RAM of Nokia N900 smartphone should be enough to run nearly all operating systems, including Windows XP and the majority of Linux distributions. But until recently there was a possibility to run only Windows NT 4.0 and a few Linux-assemblies.

Now we have progress. You can find online descriptions of the ways to start Windows 95; this operating system works quite fast and stable on the N900. And you do not even need to remove the existing N900 in the Maemo default distribution for its installation.

The developers of Mozilla Company presented the first official version of their Firefox browser for Maemo OS mobile operating system and for Nokia N900 devices.

The function of viewing Web sites considering the location of the user (Location-Aware Browsing) helps to produce maps and other information about the place where you are.
