Hi, my name is Kurt Bihler. I just joined Maemotalk. I have had many Symbian Nokia phones, as well as an N770, N800, and now an N900 which I won at the Chicago N900 Meetup.

I have along history in the computer field going back to the early 1980's when I worked for a small Japanese computer company called SORD Computer.

I used to host the Joliet Linux Users Group on my company servers.

I am really impressed with the N900, the conglomerated communication theme is a true milestone.

Once the iPhone loving reviewers are finished saying the N900 isn't exactly like an iPhone, and people dig a little deeper, I predict it will be a milestone in computer history.

Cheers

Welcome, Kurt555gs, when you have the time I would like to know how the N900 gps compares to an N800 with a bluetooth gps.

My N900 GPS doesn't work at all. Neither the network, or the internal. I have tried one or the other separately, No dice, just searching. The Location Server is supl.nokia.com

My geotagged videos on Qik show me being in Spain ...

I have a Nokia bluetooth GPS unit that I will try to pair with the N900 today. We will then see if it is hardware or software.

I wonder is none of the N900s have "out of box" gps.

I just tried pairing the N900 with a Nokia LD-3W GPS unit. It will pair, but it shows it as an "un-categorized device" . when I select the LD-3W in the location program, and save it, it never actually connects.

So, No GPS for the N900 that I have, not internal, not network, and not bluetooth.

Hello~ Just here to learn stuff about maemo. I'm in the market for smartphones but haven't particularly decided which yet. :)
