Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

needless to say, a quick bit of dividing means this is an extra cost of only €18 ($25) per device on a batch of 200 phones. money that nervous people like me would be very glad to hand over.

Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

so if calibration is the problem, is it an LTE specific issue, or do all smaller modem chipsets regardless of LTE need to have this done?

edit: a quick google shows the phrase 'self calibration'...

I voted to buy it at €1000. The trolls and naysayers in this thread strike me as suspicious. Who are they? What are they afraid of?

Re: How many of you still use N900 as main phone?

I don't own an n9, and use the n900 as my only phone and desktop replacement. But can I ask why you consider the n9 garbage?

Re: Sailfish(Jolla): Ideas/Qns & Concerns/Criticisms

Let me play devil's advocate here and add 'why not android'

if you port your app to android instead of jolla, then:
1. you've probably learned valuable(literally) dev skills
2. there's a good...

Re: Sailfish(Jolla): Ideas/Qns & Concerns/Criticisms

I don't know if you read all of that, as it clearly states they're keeping X11 for backward compatibility. They're not stupid. Just keep in mind the gnome fiasco (everybody including Linus himself...

Re: Sailfish(Jolla): Ideas/Qns & Concerns/Criticisms

dropping X means jolla has a large time horizon, far longer than 2 years. 2 years is a long time in the mobile world.

Re: How many of you still use N900 as main phone?
