Say what you will about the pitfalls of the debated N900, but I just had a cool "Nokia" moment: sitting in the bar in San Diego Sheraton with a Skype video call to Taiwan so I can wave good morning to my 15mo-old girl. Cheesy, yes, but the slogan "Connecting People" actually worked.

You may continue with your scheduled programming.



edit: you may share your rainbows-n-unicorns "Nokia" moment.

Nice work! I had a great "Connecting People" moment recently with my (beloved) N900 - Skyping from New York to London, and then a stranger said to me, "oh, is that the new iphone?" haha. What happened next was THOROUGHLY enjoyable!

got a ride from a new friend the other day in his beater. the radio reception was terrible for normal stations, but picked up the signal just fine from my n900, so we could cruise with some tunes,

Everyday I hammer out IM's with people on Facebook who are usually the type I don't much talk to. So its a bit easier to keep in touch w/ everyone. I'm a lazy bastard and don't want to fiddle and fart about to get my phone in a wifi and use Skype. :c
