Three devices are listed above the heading -- was the N810 Wimax Edition added later and the heading after it not changed? This could read "For all three devices" or "For N800, N810 and N810we" and there would be no confusion then.

The information that it has been successfully tested on an N810we seems parenthetical, and shouldn't be put first, I think. Is this equivalent and correct?

Or could the information about having been tested be made bold ''and'' italic, so that it's more easily seen as a datapoint and not the beginning of the next step?

Here's where my real stumble occurs -- are those three separate commands to complete or just one really long command? If it's one really long command, may I suggest a note indicating that; and if it's three commands then indicate that by saying "continue by running the following commands"? I know that as someone with little experience, I would be reassured to have this spelled out explicitly before I proceed.  [[User:rsperberg|rsperberg]] 19:31, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

On review, I see this line near the top:

:There are two slightly different sets of packages for the N800 and the N810, so follow the appropriate steps for your device.

Since there are three different packages that might be specified, surely this should say "three" instead of "two"? Oh, I'm going to go ahead and make this correction, since it's obvious even to me :-) [[User:rsperberg|rsperberg]] 19:31, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Does anybody have required *.deb packages in his backups? Looks like http://outpo.st/ not providing them anymore. Does it makes sense to put all the staff into more safe place so it will be available for the community?

Thanks in advance, Andrey.
