Region specific hardware
Good afternoon/morning all!
Quick question which I can't seem to find a definite answer for, are their *any* variences in the hardware between N900's sold in the US and N900's sold in the UK for example? Looking to purchase an N900 whilst I'm out in the states, just wanted to make sure it'll be all good when I get back, for reference I'm on the UK o2 phone network. Benji |

No, the hardware is identical world-wide.

Re: Region specific hardware
I guess the only difference is the printing on the keyboard. also, when it come to Hong Kong (if it ever does) FM Transmitter will be likely to be disabled.

Re: Region specific hardware
Thank you! I'd imagine the charger will have a different plug but will probably support 230v anyway so that's easily sorted, if not, the chargers are cheap I'd guess!

Also anyone know about the extra WIFI channels (e.g. 12, 13, 14) issue? Do N900's sold outside the US have these WIFI channels enabled by HW/SW? Or by setting the N900's language/region? |
Re: Region specific hardware
Actually the hardware/software could differ worldwide.
From the hardware side, the keyboard is very different from country to country. E.g: I'm italian, the Nokia Italia site showed me a normal keyboard while I was buying my N900 online but I've received an N900 with italian keyboard (it lacks of up/down arrows, they are in secondary functions). From the software site, lots of people from certain countries have received "limited" N900 (a guy from Serbia had GPS feature disabled, another has fm transmitter disabled) because of local laws. I don't think there are limitations/differences in USA and UK's N900. |

Just checked and realised my N900 (UK) has UKP (£) USD ($) and EUR
