Re: Apple's antenna problem press conference reaction thread

Agreed but by putting a case on the iPhone4, this issue is moot and the same as with any other cell phone.

There is no question that Nokia does a better job with RF than most, and that is one of...

I have a similar problem because I am located in an area with very poor coverage. When I force a search for providers I find that there are 3 in range, two being very weak and the third much...

Re: Phone wont turn on. Solid orange light when USB charger connected

This happened to me as well after the battery died, try popping the battery out with no cable attached, then put it back together. Mine then powered up just fine.

Re: Bluetooth

Re: Nokia CEO not happy being beaten by the iPhone (was: Nodia CEO...)

The key to success is clearly finding a way to make sure developers can get paid or they will not be interested. Not sure how it works on Symbian but with the N900 the Ovi store is still weak, if...

Re: calls not received

The N900 will not work on the AT&T 3G network. It has 3 bands of 3G coverage, kbps (DL/UL) WCDMA 900/1700/2100, and AT&T uses 1900. T-Mobile uses 1700 so that works in the US.

Re: Edit MS Office documents - my solution

I am hoping KOffice will be real soon because I don't trust the cloud, so google docs is not an option for me. For now, I use my Mac for this but that won't hold for ever.
