Something else: could you guys, do something about sendings files? I mean it'd be very usefull to see a status of the beamed file. Something like when sending pictures, or some percentage, or time remaining. It'd be real usefull

I speak for P800, although I guess P900 is the same from this point of view: I go to "pictures" folder. I view a picture, and choose to send it. When the other push "accept", I see a status bar, and percent above that bar. That's really usefull, cause I know how much I have to wait.

there's actually another thread somewhere in this forums where i explain why sman doesn't have the progress bar when beaming files (bluetooth or irda). i'll attempt to explain it again!
the built-in classes that are used by all other apps i've seen so far (including the built-in apps on the phone) will pop-up a dialog box that has a progress bar. unfortunately, these built-in classes have a thing i don't like: in order for you to beam a file across, you must first make a copy of the file in C: drive (under the mail folder if i recall correctly). this presents 2 problems:
1) if you don't have enough disk space on C: to make a copy, you will not be able to beam your file. you can test this easily.
2) if your file is big, you have to wait a loooooooooooong time before the beaming starts because of the disk i/o overhead of copying the file.
sman overcomes these by using slightly lower-level APIs and classes for doing file beaming. so, beaming starts faster in sman and you don't have the disk space limitation.
the drawback is these APIs do not have any publicly available progress information at all. SE *may* have functions built into these lower-level APIs for monitoring progress. if they do, they haven't documented them at all.

thank you for details, i'm happy with sman as it is, and you are right with the c drive.
and thank you for the filesearch module. And network too...
Hmmmmm, a little request, is possible to enter a bigger text in the blujack message? now is pretty limited...

Any ideas of practical uses for the Cell Events? I know how to make it work, I just don't know for what reason.

what would you like to be reminded of when you enter or leave a particular area? some uses i've seen:
1) someone had a homer simpson saying something about beer when he steps into the pub
2) someone had a warning sound played when he drives near a speed-trap zone
3) someone had a wake-up sound played when he reaches a particular train station (it's a long journey and he sleeps....)
4) record your own voicenote then get sman to play this back as a reminder such as when you reach home, you could get it to play "Remember to do the laundry!"
use your imagination.
