A popular magazin in sweden has made a video of n900 with Klas Ström, Scandinavian product manager at Nokia.

They are talking swedish and the n900 is swedish, but i thought this video was very good.
I would add subtitles but i donīt know how to download the vid, help anyone?

Link via google translate, click on the video linkto start the player.

Strange, tested the link several times.

According to the FAQ you need at least flash 10.0.32.18 and shockwave 11.5.1.601 installed.

Thanks for the link, however i canīt make it to record.

Seems that they have made a player thatīs very difficult to copy from :mad:

Its interesting to see that the nordic alphabets are not accessible via the Fn button, like presumed earlier. Instead the down and up keys are hidden behind the FN menu, thats strange for us Nordic users. Maybe I won't be using those keys too much anyways, except in the terminal of course :).

EDIT: I have to say that this is the best review so far, it really shows the device very closely :)

Interesting video, and the first time I've seen the new Application Manager with the Media Player-lookalike frontend icons.

Speaking of Media Player, I'm not sure I like the way the volume slider temporarily takes over the bottom bar, where the position indicator usually is, as I think the two could get confused. I think the volume slider short appear vertically above the volume button when pressed.

Using Orbit Downloader. Here is Mediafire (http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=5f019cd97fc3d3e7a0f2f20c509059d9e04e75f6 e8ebb871) link, for those interested
I didn't get it to play using Media Player Classic HC, so I'm not sure whether this is a right video or not,

Is there any truth to this compass business? I don't recall seeing it in the specs, but it may have been revealed in early fremantle builds.

it DOES have 1GB of ram^^ 256mb ram and something about 700mb virtual ram^^

i've downloaded it also with orbit. can't open it. tried to upload to youtube. youtube says the format is not supported...

No it doesn't, it has 256 MB of RAM and a 768 MB swap partition.

Edit: he specifically did not say 1 GB virtual memory, he said RAM.

as i said... xD: 256mb ram and something about 700mb virtual ram^^

edit: on every nokia site it is listed with 1GB ram. although it's only 256mb ram and 768mb virtual (swap) ram. so that he says, that it does have 1gb of ram is not a reason to say that it doesn't have a digital compass...

maemo.nokia.com: "Up to 1 GB of application memory (256 MB RAM, 768 MB virtual memory)". Yes, RAM just means Random Access Memory, and that could technically be anything, but it is not used when talking about swap.

I agree it doesn't mean he's guaranteed to be wrong about both features, but it does mean we should take his understanding of things with a grain of salt.

Note that my quote is also wrong in another way. The correct specs are 1 GB virtual memory, 256 MB RAM, 768 MB swap.

I have read about the digital compass from other sources on internet, and other vids. However we canīt be sure until someone actually tried it.

And that is strange to me, i mean for 2 days people visiting nokia world have gotten plenty of time to play with the n900. However almost 90 % of all videos alway shows the same stuff. (desktop, multi-T,video playback and so forth) I hope a "real" techie gets some hands on time with it soon.! We need answers!

Obviously the reporters should be better at it, but when I tried out the N900 I couldn't come up with anything smart to do and just did what we've seen in the videos. Something about the pressure of being in a hurry and not really being familiar with the UI messes with your head.

Good point, always easier to be the "backseat driver" :)
