Re: Massive interactivity improvement under high I/O load!

Your work on improving interactivity is much appreciated but I want to make sure we're not missing an important point as well -- you're using your N900 as a wireless media server with Samba and...

Re: Nokia employees protest due to massive layoff

Excellent perspective. I hope we see a bounty of interesting new projects and companies from ex-Nokia employees.

Re: N950 will succeed N900

My N900 interface objects in order of frequency of use: fingernail, stylus, ignition key. :D

Re: N950 will succeed N900

Agreed on the larger battery.

I prefer the resistive screen. I still have an affinity for a stylus. I don't use it all the time but frequently enough that I'd miss it.

Re: N950 will succeed N900

After my experience with the N900 I probably will buy the MeeGo N950. I'd by an N900 v2 running the current version of Maemo (release 3 that is) if it offered two improvements over the original: 1)...

I can no longer sync. I installed version 1.0 before the recent system updates. Everything worked fine. Some time between then and now it quit working and I can no longer sync. I get the following...

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status

On the 11th pretty early in the day if I recall correctly.

Finally had some time to play with it last night. I'll post my thoughts later.

Edit: As you can see from my signature it was bricked....

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status

FedEx? Interesting. All my Amazon packages come UPS whether I choose 2nd day or next day. Did you have to do something really different to get FedEx?

BTW: Mine arrived today around 4 (CST). Too...

I didn't really have time to play with a new phone this weekend anyway. But I would have sacrificed to do so. :D

Re: N900 from Amazon: deals, availability, shipping status

I figured it was a brain cramp. On the Amazon search-result page the line-up of phone photos has N900 and N97 side-by-side. The N97 looks enough like the N900 they're easy to mistake.

Re: GNU Emacs 23.1.1 for Nokia N900

The answer for some of us is "Yes, emacs is great in general" and "Yes, it's for programming".

It's mostly for programmers and other bit-twiddling geeks.

Re: N900 custome APN's?

While carrier roaming is a small obstacle the real issue is the radio in the N900. It doesn't support AT&T's 3G frequencies. I have the same problem with my E71. It's 3G on AT&T networks but not on...

Re: Buy from Amazon $472.50 w/ payphrase cashback, In stock on Dec-16

Undoubtedly there are some trolls. I imagine some had unrealistic expectations, others didn't know what they were getting into and some are having real problems.

N900 Available on Amazon Again (12/12/09)
