Hopefully they finally fixed the crashing music player. I'm tired of having to restart the caanoo multiple times when I try to use it as an mp3-player.

"4. Removal of noise from the motor"

Pardon me?
I don't get the meaning of this one...

they most likely mean they reduced the buzz sound from the haptic (vibration) motor

Wow, 1.5.0 is quite a jump from 1.0.6.

I wonder if the wifi improvements include additional drivers for more adapters...? That'd be nice.

Just tried my EDiMAX nano and still not working so i dont think they will have updated the drivers for wifi.

hmm first time i tried to update it failed and got stuck on the caanoo loading screen after a brief update screen, installed 1.06 then tried 1.50 again without problem.

The Wifi "improvements" were only to restore its original functionality found in the original firmware, in other words it restores the ability to save network logon information. I wish their changlogs were a bit more detailed.

WPA2 still doesnt work with the official GPH dongle. What a waste of money. Upside is that nothing uses wifi right now anyways

I first thought it was stuck at the Caanoo loading screen too, but after I waited a little while a new update screen appeared.

Neither for me and I have 2 official wifi sticks from GPH.

Music player seems to be stable now though (testing still pending...).

I know its not as small but maybe this one

Still small though

Ruffnuts that Micronext adapter wont work because it uses a Realtek chipset. I believe the caanoo only supports certain Ralink chipsets.

thats what you asked for

 

[ruffnutts]

Ok well I will keep searching for a small adapter - I mean who wants one that sticks out loads @ the bottom

 

[CKeichel]

I just tried an AVI containing an XVid, still get the message, this format isn't supported. It would be nice of GPH to say which formats the Caanoo plays, trying the various different formats is rather annoying (but then, the movie capabilities of the Caanoo aren't this great anyway).

I believe that one is also realtek, so a no no.

EDIT: Btw, i don't think GPH will add support for other wifi modules, as this would mean less sales for their own module.
