It should open full pages by default? Some sites detect a mobile browser and redirect to WAP pages. Can you list some specific sites which are opening in WAP mode?

mail.yahoo.com it opens m.mail.yahoo.com or m.yahoo.com something like it but it is definitely not as it looks on my desktop which is *mail.yahoo.com So it is a WAP site isn't it ?

No.. m.yahoo.com is not a WAP site.. Its a mobile optimized site.. Anyway, at the bottom of the page you should have an option to go to the full yahoo.com site.

You don't have to root to take screenshot. Install Android SDK in your system and use ddms tool within SDK to click sceenshots.

^For home screen auto rotate, use two apps, LauncherPro+HomeChanger.
HomeChanger to change ur current home screen and LauncherPro is the home screen to select.

Its under wireless settings. Also, I hope you had a backup of your /efs folder. JPK changes the product code.

The Vote is on for the Best Smartphone ever.

Finally it will boil down between the Nokia N900 v/s Samsung Galaxy-S and as of Now the SGS is trailing with a Huge Margin. The whole Maemo community is backing the N900.

Where is the Android community?

Are they letting down their great OS just because of everyone not owning a SGS?

Maybe someone should just inform some Android developers forum so they can't call "stolen victory"?

Does it mean that the Android phones are so generic that it does not really matter which one you vote?

I have used the N900 and the SGS aswell. So My vote goes to N900 but to Maemo as well! (that N900 can run android is not being taken into account)

What exactly is your point? Where did you come from? Did you intend to post in some other thread? (Galaxy S vs N900 or what??)

Also,regarding your comments. Considering that Maemo is basically a dead platform, (with no further devices scheduled to run in it. AFAIK. Pls correct me if I am wrong) Android steadily increasing in both market and mind-share, I'd say it is not even a proper comparison.

Also, I'd wager that Galaxy S and its variants have probably outsell N900 by quite a large margin. (Though, partly it might be because of the relatively hype-free launch of N900. It was as if Nokia themselves were not too keen on promoting this powerful handset.)
