Hello to all of you guys !

I'm a quite new member of the Maemo community ...and a fresh new onwner of the N900.

I bought this phone, even it is quite "new" because of the big potential of the harware, SW (Linux !!!), openess and most of all for the Incredible Community of Maemo !!!

I take the opportunity to WISH YOU ALL A MERRY XMAS and a wonderful Ney Year !!

Greetings from Italy,

Hi. New member here. I'm trying to figure out the N900 I got last week, and I find this forum very helpful, if a tad defensive about the N900's flaws. The device is far below expectations, so I may not be here long. I find it amusing that the standard defense on this site appears to be:" but it's not a smartphone, it's an internet tablet." For an internet-specific device, the N900's browser is very slow, it is more difficult to navigate even this maemo community page on the N900 than on my e71, and the there is massive lag when I try to play flash video from websites. It is obvious that so many of the lessons learned in Symbian over the years have somehow been lost in designing this phone and OS. Nokia should be embarrassed (and it's sagging share price shows that embarrassment) to have launched such a half-baked product. The innovation graveyard is littered with products that developers found cool, and the consumer found idiotic. The N900 appears to be headed that way. If you make me a decent offer for my N900, I'll ship it to you and buy a real phone/internet device :).

Hey, two weeks ago got my N900......... woowwwww!!!
I am not a newbe in linux, but even though not an expert.
But this device smashes!!!!
AND:: Love the posts here
Last but not least: Brought my N900 to the "nokia-super-doctor" here in town. because it (by serial nr.) was on the "black"-list for factory return. Mine had spontanious reboots which did the file-system no good
Now i get a new one within a few days. Lucky me!!!!

PS. The doctor himself in the shop checked his own N900 too. Guess what: his is on the blacklist too...... LOL

Hello Everyone... I am Tushar and I am an addict... its been 15 mins since i used my phone last time...

I am from india... and I got this baby after a lot of trouble.. ..Bought it from new egg and made a friend to bring it for me....I am a (u can say) gadget freak (i prefer buying some cool gadget over clothes).... My last phone was N97 and before that it was Htc TyTn II (i wont go into the story before that one)
I use fedora 12 on my regular workstation and i dont even try to touch a machine with windows with a 10 foot pole (you have no idea what it can do to you...)
This is a first time i am using debian (i know its strange) in any kind (n900) and trying to find my way through the differences in fedora and debian bases.....
i think this is enough for today.. will continue the story some other day :)

Re: New members say hello !
