Re: N900 November
 

I think Nokia is trying to extending the sale of N97 and N97 mini and also fixes the firmware bugs before decide to release the N900 into the wild so we can catch it later. I'm holding on to my decision to stay waiting for N900 though. I'm waiting for it to come to ASIA.

Do you guys read the posts ? :)

Re: N900 November
 

The N97 mini isn't even out yet.

Re: N900 November
 

iPhone 3GS instead? iPhone and N900 aren't comparable! :)

Re: N900 November
 

I thin the best course of action is to wait - and dont come and check thread every day or this forum for that matter (as everybody here WITH an N900 is on a NDA and hence nothing new to know and rest is all speculative stuff).

So much of wasteful speculation and frustrating discussions over rumours will just wear all out and bring on N900-burn-out even before we get our hands on the device.

Re: N900 November
 

Thats right... I'll just lay back now and don't think about that anymore ... there are so many things to do.

Re: N900 November
 

I would agree with that. If you would "settle" for an IPhone, why would you even be interested in the N900?

Kinda Like Apple Users and LINUX users ehhh? And I mean Apple users pre OSX here. There was not much overlap between those two groups. Of course since Apple did UNIX that has changed.

iPhone won't cut it for me. I have no interest in it. I was interested and excited about Android till it came out and looked like nothing. But this is the phone I've wanted ever since I bought my first MONOchrome communicator.

Abso-bricking-lutely!! :D

Would that be the original 9000 brick?
What a piece of art! :cool:

I've been a Communicator user for over 10 years now (9000i, 9210, 9500, E90) and it looks like the N900 will be putting an end to this! Finally, a single mobile device, computer first, but makes calls too!! Thank you Nokia!!

Somehow I managed to fight the urge to pre-order and the more I see what the N900 represents, the more I think may actually be OK waiting a few more weeks...maybe.. :)

Re: N900 November
 

Yeah, it's long gone. I could have kept them all, kinda like a museum, but that's kinda crazy! After time though, I hated the clamshell. I always had hinges breaking. The N97 came out and I was skeptical of the longevity of that Rube Goldberg engineering. The slider looks to be more robust. I won't do any more clamshells though.

Funny thing though. I was thinking of ordering the N97 a few weeks ago and stumbled on the 900 which I didn't know anything about! There has been NO advertising about it. I broke out in a cold sweat just thinking about how unhappy I would have been getting the N97 and then finding out about the 900 later!

Re: N900 November
 

Speaking on communicator museums. I've got 2x9500 sitting here collecting dust. I've often thought about if it would be possible to put a light Linux kernal on that 80MB native memory and use a MMC card for storage. I mean in all reality its more a novelty than a practical portable wifi terminal. But I hate not being able to have them around to house in the kitchen, living room or whatever. Since I'm not real up on my TI Chipsets, does anyone out there have any thoughts on the ability to port Maemo to the OMAP chipset?


Thought this might be a more positive distraction from our collective depression about the N900 release date.
