The Mozilla based Maemo 5 browser is the only mobile browser to handle flash in a desktop fashion. And the recently announced Google Wave is probably the complete neo-communication platform. Combine the two together and you have just entered a tech geeks wet dream, the convergence will allow great things in terms of productivity and social networking, and will enable the world to connect in a way never before thought possible. The release of a standalone application by Google would not even be necessary. Certain aspects of the software can be optimized in order to make this work seamlessly. The N900 software is still in pre-production stages, so watch this space. Check out the video after the jump…

Nokia N900 delayed to mid November
November 12th, 2009 • maemo, news • No comments
When the Nokia N900 was first announced, the release date was planed for mid to end of October. As time passed by more and more sources hinted to a much later release date o the hot anticipated Maemo 5 handset. Unfortunately, Nokia announced that the N900 has been pushed back to mid November.
The Nokia N900 is a great example of what we and the open source community have been able to achieve with the Maemo software. We are working closely with open source developers and for example, at the Maemo Summit in October, we loaned pre-production units to get more feedback from the community. This feedback is extremely important to us and as such we also want to provide the best user experience with the Nokia N900. We expect it to start shipping during November.

Espoo, Finland – Nokia announced that it has today filed a complaint against Apple with the Federal District Court in Delaware, alleging that Apple’s iPhone infringes Nokia patents for GSM, UMTS and wireless LAN (WLAN) standards.

Much of this intellectual property, including the patents in suit, has been declared essential to industry standards. Nokia has already successfully entered into license agreements including these patents with approximately 40 companies, including virtually all the leading mobile device vendors, allowing the industry to benefit from Nokia’s innovation.
