Re: N950 with MeeGo this year, but who trusts Nokia anymore?

I think the key thing is that I won't buy a nokia device until it has everything in the first release. The N900 was deliveried with a pile of **** version of maps and they never provided what cheaper...

Re: How Dual Mode Works

Dual mode means in idle the phone has to measure neighbour cells in the serving cell list - this eats into the battery. 3g does take more juice in idle compared to 2g. Big difference is 3g on hspa in...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

Re: What Nokia should have done with maemo/meego

Nokia had another project program after the N900 called columbus. From my understanding it was the next generation for maemo, however they canned it suggesting that they wanted to focus on the N900;...

Smile Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego?

We were sold in December - even after that we still have access to Nokia intranet. Or should I say had in my case. I saw Elops speech last week - just before I walked.
Don't blame me man - I'm just...

Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego?

I lost my N900 when I left my job. I miss it cos I'm now back on a POS symbian E71. However at the same time the N900 was limited - unfinished. I'm looking forward to maybe getting an android.

Re: N9 scrapped according to Eldar.

Another rumour was that N9 (***i) was canned because it was very late - a possible reason it was so late was that it was rumoured that something in the graphics subsystem was completely respec'd...

Re: N9 scrapped according to Eldar.

Heard that the N9 had been canned unofficially earlier this week. Aparently it'll exist as an internal dev platform. News from inside nokia is strangely silent on this, I get the general feeling that...

Re: Will we see something mobile MeeGo related at Mobile World Congress 2011?

I suspect their might be something. However my suspiction is that Nokia are desperate to get it right so if its anything other than 90% they won't blow it. All I'll say is that after using and...

Re: Symbian boss quited

I was walking along a canal once and I saw a dead fish on the path. Its guts had been pecked out. I think the parallels with symbian are uncanny.
That is all.

Re: NYT: Internal politics doomed Nokia

Read the article. Have to agree with it 100%.

Re: Nokia CEO Resigns

Gerbick - OPK didn't have anything to do with the linux open source work - that was all OPK's predecessor Jorma Ollila. I suspect OPK had very little to do with Meego (the partnership with intel).

Re: Bullish analysts: N8 will save Nokia

The N8 will be another mass seller. But it won't save Nokia. Nokia's software creation process isn't about striving for the best like Apple, it always defaults to "good enough". Coupled with the fact...

Re: N900 - GSM/UMTS gives up

The H3G network is a real mess. They have a fair 3g coverage map but the problem is that every voice call or data unit that occurs on the 'borrowed' 2g network costs 3. They get no money and its...
