Re: Some questions before I buy the N900
btw guys does YouTube work on this phone? Or does it not? In that case, is there a YouTube app?
How long do you think YouTube actually will work before they move to Flash 10?

Re: Some questions before I buy the N900
I'm most definitely a geek, however I realize that fundamentally I expect as much from the N900 as everyone else does. instead of thinking of it as a typical, average smartphone, I have to understand...

Re: Some questions before I buy the N900
Thanks for your input.
By the way, having used all of those devices, how do you feel about the screen size? Having the full web experience is useless without adequate screen size, so do you think...

Definitely not. The iPhone App Store is populated with dozens of flashlight and lightsabre apps. I just want functional, usable apps that bring the N900 closer to an actual computer (i.e. RAR...

Re: Some questions before I buy the N900
guys how long do you think is this device's lifetime? As in how long until Nokia pulls support for it and the community moves on to MeeGo? Since MeeGo's not coming to the N900, I guess Nokia will...
