I'll let you know and post the auction here. HEY! Win-win.

You can't depend on Nokia as a vendor of a device your business depends on. This would be an immediate deal-killer in any business relationship with a device manufacturer, as far as I'm concerned, and a big reason why I cannot recommend it to the associated, friends and family that I talk to either.

I am waiting for the nitdroid project to complete their work. I am really tired of n900's keyboard though and might switch to the first handset with a decent qwerty keyboard and android. Need good calendar and e-mail functionality. A browser that doesn't suck is just a plus.

after playing with HTC hero in the weekend I just ordered Nokia C5 a hour ago.... (good old 6630 might have dropped to water once too much...) I copied my friend who switched from iPhone 3GS and he said that nothing has yet appeared that he could do with iPhone but not with C5. And flash is cool in internets he said
the biggest clitch with HTC was with android market and insane "no paid apps" -restriction. wtf. Plans for Galaxy S were flushed in a split second after learning that.
So now I'll be waiting what kind of meego handset there will be (and as I've said million times before: if it isn't good in my opinion, I'll buy another n900)

If you put the cursor at the beginning of the section of text you wish to copy, just hold the "Shift" key, will pressing the right directional key, to highlight the selection. Once you have the selection, pres Ctrl+C to copy, Ctrl+V to paste. No issues copying and pasting for me.
I just shorted the backlight on my 900's screen (sink
) and I'm looking at alternatives that support Sling. Wanting a hard keyboard/slider, and not being a fan of iPhone, I don't see anything really compelling that will support AT&T 3G (I'd get a Torch but want a bigger screen). I'll probably just hold for a Milestone 2 or pick up the Verizon Droid 2/Pro if it supports AT&T's 3G with its "World Roaming" capability.

Calendar and email work SPLENDIDLY in Android, too, I might add.

Fennec = Micro B?
On a side note, all of these 4in+ screens are all 480x800 pixels, ex. HTC Evo 4G & Samsung Galaxy. Does that mean pixels per square inch or for the whole screen?

Ok thats a little disappointing...Well September 15th is the day when hopefully alot of questions will be answered by not only Nokia but also HTC...Still kinda rooting for Nokia to pull off a miracle, but also willing to accept the possibility of getting an Android phone.

Naw, near as I can tell, Nokia's burned a lot of bridges and ruined the experience even if they got things right. I'd rather hold to see what Intel does, myself.
