....doesn't mean that it is fully functional on the N97.
Software vendors are starting to list their products for the 5800 as being compatible for the N97.
After trying a number of them, I suggest that a criteria be established with regard to software being described as "working" on the N97:
1. Software must be operational in LANDSCAPE mode as a minimum and preferably be operation in both PORTRAIT and LANDSCAPE. It must auto-detect which orientation the N97 is in.
I just reviewed a scientific calculator program which only works in PORTRAIT mode and has keys so small that you must use a stylus on the touchscreen for all entry.
2. Input methods must support the use of the keyboard and the touchscreen. Keyboard key-mapping must ALL work as advertised.
I have tested a video player program and found that the keymapping displayed in the on-screen menu brought up (sometimes) by a touchscreen double-tap did not match the letters on the keyboard.
I wonder how long it is going to take for the software available for the N97 to be comparable to that available for the Series 80 phones? (my 9300 spoiled me!)
