Bug Description
I'm the developer of Conboy[1] a Tomboy clone for Maemo[2] devices. It's running on the Nokia N800, N810 and N900.
The current development version is able to sync to Ubuntu One. Basically it's working on all 3 devices, but only on the N900 the authentication process works without problems.
On the older platforms (N800, N810) the browser seems to be too old to support the redirect method which is used in Ubuntu One. This leads to the problem, that after authenticating on the Ubuntu One website the redirect back to the local application is not working. Therefore the local application does not realize that the login was successful.
Tests have shown that if Mobile Firefox[3] is used instead of the building browser the authentication does correctly work on the N800 and N810. However this requires to install an alternative browser and copying URL between build-in browser and Mobile Firefox.
It would be great if the redirection to the OAuth callback URL could be done in a manner that older browsers can handle.
If you need additional information, I'll happily provide them.

I'm not sure what a redirect method "that older browsers can handle" is -- can you give a few more details on exactly what you'd like the Ubuntu One servers to do?
Also: Conboy syncing with Ubuntu One! Sweet. :-)
