- how many good Free apps are there in the app store ?<br></div></blockquote><div><br>not that much.. It is not open source mentality here. it is busness as android and appstore. so if you do like me (ie restricting to free/floss) then<br>
there is not lot of apps. <br>I will see how to build existing floss app for it.<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<div>
- and .. is there a shell (i.e. how open is it) ?<br></div></blockquote><div><br>You can enable a dev mod that permit to novacom( a bit like an ssh connection but by usb and without encryption and network interface) which you can use to<br>
install openssh or dropbears and then enable usbnet mode (like with the Freerunner) <br>and install preware( a communotary app catalog ) in which you can find( and install ) terminal emulators( don't know if it is the good term) but<br>
those I have tried did not work here with the pre 2 . I think they need to be updated.<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
