Gadget freaks unite! Here's another chance to help make a Linux device a tool for Linux power-users. According to Linuxdevices, Nokia is looking for help from you guys.

At the show, Nokia and popular science magazine launched a contest revolving around applications, scripts, services, and hardware additions for the N800, the next step beyond Nokia's previously released N770.

Jaaksi told LinuxPlanet that contestants in the Popular Science Nokia N800 Reader Challenge don't need to be developers, necessarily. "[The contestants] don't have to actually write the applications. We're just looking for new ideas," he said.
