I've criticized Ovi for needless failures myself but Nokia still has a chance to make it succeed-- although the window is quickly getting smaller.

The best way to make it happen (after fixing embarassing flaws, which is actually taking place) is to make the service so damned attarctive that customers loudly demand it from their providers. But of course success is more up to Nokia's execution than anything... so far not so good.

One word: Blackberry.

It isn't so much about market size at the high end (ie, business) as it is about margins + loyalty. You should know that.

There is no "jailbraking" in N900 case.
I was just too bored to write anything more than that. :)
BTW I'm 4 years old. :P

Officially unsupported customisation of an open system is the same thing as jailbreaking, only legal.

I dont said that i activate debug mode on my devices :) dont see any reason, I have to check how they work in normal modes

Either the binaries come with support for that or not. Check you exec file /usr/bin/file does it say stripped or not stripped?

Did you run PowerTOP?
Think no, what's that?
Software to analyse power usage of specific drivers and binaries.

i wont say that but at this moment OVI is failed, not completely but Nokia have to think about re-launch it in future

It hasn't been doing too well, unfortunately. I don't understand how it's taken them this long to get it working, and still don't have any really useful features.

Ngage is dead again (second time)
Maybe, but games can still be sold on Ovi along with everything else if the store gets more popular.

Quote:


OVI Share wont be develop strongly
A lot of development come to integrate Facebook, Twitter and some others non Nokia services. It means that own services are failed (again, not completely)
I don't understand this, either. Supporting third party services is good, but Ovi Contacts should be under much more heavy development (maybe it is, in secret?).

You're right, but this crap makes me sick :mad:

I remember that one of the apps froze once, but it was just that app, not the entire system; it was enough to shortly press the Power button and select "Close current task" from the menu. That's it.

It's one of the most stable devices I've ever used, even in its current proto state.

:confused:

I'm not as concerned about the hardware (there's enough hardware makers out there that make interesting and powerful hardware). It's more the software or operating system of the phone that I'm interested in. For example, what will Samsung use as their OS? A closed OS only limited to their phones like Apple? Android, already running on several devices with more always being announced Heck maybe even Maemo.

looks like chat :)

netbooks are dying, they are moved to normal notebooks segment (at least in terms of price). It was a good move to market but now game are changing again. The same story was on handset market before.

So netbooks take some market share, but wont be dominante power on it.

Corporate market is so small. You are kidding me. Story behind Eseries (first 2 year) wasnt successfull, the same for BB devices (they have sales only for 1 year - in volumes). From the point when they make more mass market devices...

You're somewhat right about the netbooks, but on the other hand that wouldn't be the only product category. Maemo will be able to do both the basic phone tasks and the general purpose computing tasks, which will increase the user base and... HANG ON, why am I trying to explain this. I'll just quote the RX-51 first look article:

"The market will require vertical OS, which can be applied in cell phones, communicators, laptops and MID devices, i.e. various device types with different architectures, performance levels and so on."
