We just recently signed up with T-Mobile on their special $100 for two
lines using unlimited data, text, whatever. My wife is doing fine with
her old Samsung Galaxy S 4G T595. Although it is an older model, hers
is working fine.
Anyway, I'm using or trying to use a Nokia N900 running Maemo 5 similar
to Fremantle 1.3 derived from Debian. I need to find the
wireless-tools package that used to be available for it, and I also
would like to find the Joikuspot Hotspot program that I used to have. I
have not been able to find the archives in the house where I hid that
stuff after I wore out my first Nokia N900 cellphone. I have
'ransacked' the Maemo.org website trying to find the actual packages and
even left a request on the Joiku Facebook page (I guess I need to speak
Finnish!). The Opera Store only serves the Nokia Symbian OS.
Thanks for any help to refine my efforts. I managed to get it working
well enough to tether my laptop through it to post this request.
Sincerely,
