Re: Nokia N900 vs. Motorola Droid / Milestone

I am running both N900 and a Nexus One (not Droid, but maybe relevant to this discussion) with Froyo (Android 2.2) for a few weeks to decide which to keep. I am running the Nexus One for about 2...

Re: N900 Vs Nexus One

Hi, resurrecting this thread for two reasons: (1) Froyo was just released (at least a near final release candidate) and (2) I recently bought a Nexus One and flashed with Froyo and intend to use both...

Re: Joiku for n900 available :)

Bought it, working great so far (1 day), will report later if problems emerge. Hopefully they sell a lot, would like to see N900 emerge as a target platform for more commercial developers as well.

Re: Recommendation for a second phone

Re: Universal Inbox and One Button Access to Inbox

Agree with need for shortcuts (on the desktop, from within any given inbox) to a particular inbox. It takes way too many clicks to get to an inbox or, especially, to change between inboxes.

Re: Why Is Skype 2 Skype clearer than Skypeout

I don't think there is anything you can do about it, if the person on the other end is using a landline or mobile, the conversation voice quality will be limited by the codecs on the their side.

Re: Why Is Skype 2 Skype clearer than Skypeout

It is probably due to the audio codecs used. Skype-to-Skype calls use SILK, their proprietary audio codec, which I think is close to a wideband codec.

Good comments above. I have both E71 and N900. Got a second SIM and now tend to carry both devices. I hope to converge on just the N900 based on future firmware and application availability, but for...

For me, MfE is working OK, perhaps because I have it configured to sync only previous 30 days.

Re: N900 Camera Images Hazy

I got similar results with a back on / back off comparison shot today. Crap. Maybe there's a market for a third party replacement back. Or maybe Nokia will retool the production n900 to address this...
