Jurassic 3D Rollercoaster
jedi over at Maemo.org recently noticed Jurassic 3D Rollercoaster appear in the Ovi repos however its hidden and not yet in the Ovi store.
I proceeded to download this using the technique below.
Upon readin further it seemed that many users reported how badly performing this was, I've never really had any performance issue that others report and usually put this down to good housekeeping of my device, but this definatly has a problem or two. Playing this on my iPod touch 2nd gen is extremely responsive and quite wonderful, but on the N900 lags like crazy and its impossible to miss the fact that its running at a much slower framrate to the ipod, I have to put this down to bad programming of the game as the device is more than capable of murdering this game. Only time will tell, I hope that by the time this application is released its working properly.
See below for the command to download the game
Paste this into Terminal as one

PopOut Returns
Recently i posted with a workaround for the bbciplayer since the new style website removed the popout button, making it impossible to play content on the n900 via the bbc iplayer website.
Well good news! there is no longer a need to hack our user agents and regretfully pretend we are an android phone :/
The popout button is back, so now we can watch bbc iplayer content at decent quality again! check it out. and it seems that the BBC do listen to us when theres enough of us whinging.

Give Me TVCatchup !!
There are various ways of accessing TV Catchup on the N900.
The way I prefer is to visit http://m.tvcatchup.com/ and use the high quality stream, but its also possible to use an application called TVCplayer thats in extras-deval I believe.
Some people have advised its possible to use the full website now after some recent updates but even on the low quality setting I find this still abit jerky.
