Been a while

Hi all (anyone?)

I've been abscent from this site for quite a while now. Both me and my girlfriend have been through a very rough time recently, due to our newly born daughter Elma's passing away at birth.

Needless to say, I haven't been hacking much on maemo due to this. And to top it off, I switched from Ubuntu 64-bits to 32-bits (no java plugin in 64-bits, many packages missing etc.), and in doing so, I forgot to backup the sources of the hildonized port of Buoh. So it's gone, and I haven't found the strength and time yet to redo it.

So there you have it, that's how my life's been for the past 6 months.

Anyway, I've been following the news coming from OSiM and the Maemo Summit recently, and I must say that it all sounds really promising. _Except_ for the fact that there's been no announcement yet from Nokia if the upcoming Fremantle (maemo 5) platform will support the N800 and N810 devices.

If they do drop them, then... Wow. My N810 is just 9 months old. Short lifespan, eh? Not that it would suddenly stop working or anything, but it just wouldn't be as _supported_ as any new device would be. But I guess it's just a matter of Nokia wanting to sell more devices, and not wanting users clinging on to "old" hardware when they can have shiny new bling-bling with exciting features.

And that's just how the world works. We'll see how it pans out. Here's one hoping for the best.
