Nokia N800 Update Available

Post by jaz » Wed Mar 28, 2007 10:20 am

OS 2007 update is available for download/installation. Flash away if you are feeling lucky.
I hope it adds Ogg support, a device with an open source OS should support open source codecs "out of the box".
Why be like everybody else?

Agreed - at the very least it should be easy to add codec support yourself. It's simply absurd to have to dowload an entirely separate player to play ogg on a linux-based device. I would have thought they would have tried to leverage ogg.
