[vox] [fwd] SVLUG General Meeting, September 5th, Nokia's maemo development platform for handhelds

[Ruben Safir]

I just missed this meeting by a few days but I must say that I've had a
lot of trouble with the Nokia N800 which was given to us to test.  In
fact, its not booting.  Maybe I should bring it with me and someone can
get it to boot.
