Therefor it is understandable that Nokia don't want to ship support for it if they have not cleared it.

You can mix C and C++ easily. You can recompile your C code with a C++ compiler[1]. Hub [1] possibly with a few changes that will keep the code compilable with a C compiler. This was part of the C++ design. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Bonus points if it understands two and > three column > layouts as well. PDF reading on small devices is the sux0rs. The real problem is that PDF is not a format for electronic books. Because it hardcodes paper size and layout, it is not independant of the media. PDF is a format for digital rendering of printouts. As long as this will not be understood, then the problem will stick. (and this also applies to people who think PDF is also for the web) And to fall back on the subject of Maemo, this problem shows when the "User's Manual" for the N800 is provided as a PDF on the device... and the inline help tries to refer to it.

If the repository is for mistral, then it should run on mistral, aka 2.0. I tried myself on sirocco, aka 2.1.

What's the reasoning for that? 1/ you could still port maemomm to maemo 2.0. It is free software after all. 2/ you can still use C++ even if the API itself are not. AbiWord is a good example of C++ application for maemo (and plain Gtk) It is not like you got forbidden to do it.

After all since the {Canadian,insert_your_local} store does not even know about the N800 it is not competing with them, right? The fact that I can't use the code in Europe also prevents me from going through my parents. And no I'm not asking to have my code exchanged for a EU one I know the "maemo coupon team" do their best, and I thank them for that as much as I am grateful for them to have put me on the list, but it is just very sad and disappointing that business bureaucracy[1] just kill all the good ideas. I think I should invite all the people with a coupon that can't order to contact both the closest Nokia store and their local Nokia store to inquire about that issue. I have already contacted the Nokia store in the USA to inquire about buying from them, but haven't gotten a reply so far. I'm willing to be patient with that.

The Canadian Nokia store does not list it. Will the US store accept and order to Canada? Their contact form already proved that it was not suited for Canada (they expect a 5 digit Zip code, we have 6 alphanum postal code here).
