You might still have the network issue mentioned in this post - the same fix will work. I’m busy developing a MXit connection manager for Telepathy/Empathy on Linux.

Download the mpp-sdk "mpowerplayer sdk for java" run the command as spesified "java -jar player.jar" this wil open the mpowerplayer. Download a jad file from www.mxit.co.za/wap open the jad file with mpowerplayer and voila. I’ve found an alternate solution.

Awesome find! I submitted a bug report here about this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/173126 Do you think this can be fixed by something in the application, i.e. Mpowerplayer, flushing the socket or something similar more frequently? The windows application to change some tcp settings is http://www.dslreports.com/drtcp OR http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php Cheers. Oh my word, you legend. Awesome find!

Not much, just procrastinating, really. ;) At the moment I'm using it to record stuff... the included sound recorder can only record 1 minute (why?!), the other sound recorders I found so far cost money (ah, so that these can be sold?). Why pay for a sound recorder when less than 50 lines of Python code does the job? AMR is far from perfect. The silence-detection is the most irritating thing at the moment: when there's clean silence between just about every word, it just sounds terrible. It is till okay for hand-transcribing things though. Raw wav takes too much space, and I don't feel like buying an MMC card that I will only ever use in my phone. (OTOH, if I use wav, I *might* be able to get some speech recognition working? Then I could "pay" for an MMC card with the time I save doing completely manual transcriptions?) As I'm just hacking together 50-liners, emacs is all I use at the moment. If my pipe-dreams ever come true (uh, finishing my M, as a first step, *sigh*), I might take a look at the S60 emulator in December or next year. With Python on my N70?

How difficult is it to run Python on the Nokia S60 emulator (somewhere on http://www.forum.nokia.com/main/platforms/s60/ ), or is that not the problem? I had to stop myself from installing Python on my 6120 the other day. :) What are you doing with Python on your N70? Hi there Hugo!

However, I find this post useful in inspiring me to try to get J2ME emulation going on my laptop. OTOH, right now, I'm more interested in emulating Python for Series60 on my laptop, so that I don't have to upload scripts and run them on my N70 in order to test them... ;) I’m no longer using mxit, Jabber/GoogleTalk and “fring” does the job for me.
