The filter by device feature is to try and utilize the compatible device data I've been slowly feeding in to Pierogi. It's going to take some time to build up a real database of what devices work with what keysets.

Pierogi's collection of keysets, while growing, is still far from complete.  If you have a device you would like to see supported by Pierogi, the easiest way to do so would be to add it to the bottom of the Device Compatibility List mentioned above.  You may also post a message containing the request on [http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=82243 talk.maemo.org Pierogi Thread]

* With the hope of extending the N900's range a bit, I'm setting all protocols to use a duty cycle of 50%, regardless of what the documentation says they should use. I hope this won't cause any problems.
