Tablet-Suite Group Looking For Requests

screenshot-tabletsuite-300x278 One of the things that really bothered me about the earlier Tablets, such as the N800 and N810 was the lack of ability to communicate with my PC. Sure, I can connect the device via USB and have it show up as a mass storage device, but there’s no ability to synchronize photos, videos, or music, nor is there an ability to store a backup of my device’s memory on my computer.

Luckily, there’s a group of Maemo enthusiasts who feel the same way, and have started work on a new ‘Tablet-Suite’ application, currently for Linux-powered computers, that aims to do some of these things.

The current version of Tablet-Suite is quite unstable, but serves as a way to manage device backups on your PC. You can initiate a backup, and then store the resulting file safely on your computer, as well as make other copies and restore the backup.

It’s quite limited, obviously, but the team has high hopes for this much-needed application. They’re taking suggestions/requests for v0.2 of Tablet-Suite, so if you’ve got something you’d like to see this application do, you definitely want to swing over and chime in. You can also check it out at the Maemo Garage.
