Hacker saves Linux tablet owners thousands!


This guy:
http://ywwg.com/wordpress/?p=438
saved Nokia Linux tablet's elite from thousands of dollars in App Store
download costs by posting I-Am-Free.

An open source, not a big secret app costing $999 per license, the source
code tar file is also available so those learning to program can see his
code and how he did it.

Greatful Linux users are sending him huge piles of Monopoly play money,
Charmin, gag gifts from Spencers you can't take to church, etc. to show
their appreciation.

The gem is beautiful on the N800's high resolution 800 pixel wide screen.
Looks 3D. Being a useless app similar to the $999 "I Am Rich" from the
iPhone's App Store, it only has one control "QUIT" by clicking its menu
button.

Application Manager will do automatic updates to the software, free of
course, as soon as they are released, unlike App Store who drag their feet
weeks angering developers and users, alike.

---------------------------------------------Tongue-In-Cheek - OFF

Upgraded Maemo 3 to Maemo 4 "Diablo" operating system, tonight. It
incorporates many major revisions the open source user base has been asking
for. Extended functions I haven't had time to discover as I was loading it
with new Diablo-enhanced versions of my old software.....

Sure works much faster installing in Application manager....

The browser is Firefox 3 with a Hildon interface....FAST!
