Re: Nokia Customer service sucks....or "why my next phone will be running Android"

Maybe my issue was too easy, but when my USB port stopped working I called Nokia and had a new phone, with no cost to me, within one week.

Re: Great so my phone won't charge anymore

You can get the phone number from the nokiausa.com website. This happened to me as well. I got a brand new phone (but no new battery or accessories) and it took about a week to turn it around. It was...

Re: Stuttering of sound everywhere!

I have constant stuttering of sound as well. I use Panucci a lot and the audio stutters as the screen brightness changes first to dim then to off. Notification sounds from incoming messages interrupt...

Re: Help - Web Page Load Time

Could it be the web browser starting up? There is definitely, at least on my N900, a rather long delay while MicroB loads but subsequent pages loads are pretty snappy.

Re: what do you drive? (pics pls)

The A8 is rated at 330hp, but governed at around 135mph. I have had it up around 130mph and it was still pulling strong. My wife drives an '02 A6 Avant with the 3.2L 6-cylinder. No one will accuse...

Re: microb blank

Re: Can't find qmake in ARMEL target

Re: Online HD Videos

It won't be able to play the HD YouTube videos until Flash 10 for the mobile devices is released. I've heard Jan 2010 as the anticipated timeframe for that.

Re: Did Your N900 Ship Today?

The date in the email is just another 30 days out. Has nothing to do with expected delivery time.
