If you think Kathy was saying that, you have a big problem with reading comprehension.

I agree with the rest of your comment.

Re: Firmware to be released Q1 of '10. MMS to be supported.

well she is whinging about not having mms that she wants to use- i obviously still have the comprehension problem, or perhaps its u with the comprehension problem..

i think the problem here is simple..

the n900 didnt advertise mms- therefore whats the problem, it didnt say it had it , it doesnt have it.. if you really wanted it get another phone- dont let fate decide your outcome..

THE N900 did however advertise full flash browser(it doesnt work to well- well the flash side- browser is still awesome)
the n900 does advertise being a good emial client- its not as good as lesser phones
the n900 shouldnt have power issues- this is standard and it shouldnt be buggy.-- NEEDS TO BE FIXED
the n900 doesnt work to well as a phone, it doesnt work in txting landscape, this is basic stuff that should be fixed(hoepfully will)

the n900 can be a great phone for all, at the mo its a great phone, but i wouldnt recommened it it many people-- not yet anyway.

I think you meant portrait mode for texting :D landscape works. Well I would recommending people to buy N900 over the N96, N97 or the Iphone 3gs. Seriously N900 is already way on top of N97 even with its firmware 2.0. :-)

May be I should recommending it over the N97-mini also but it's depending on the person though, if he is more like a simple phone user then I wouldn't :D

Re: Firmware to be released Q1 of '10. MMS to be supported.

yep lol

i dont know - i am bored with my iphone 3g, but i would still recommend the 3gs or hdc hero for the majority over this beast,, well for the mo anyway..

the two top phones with potential is the hd2 and the n900..

at least the n900 can be improved , a whole new os will need to be installed to make the hd2 do what it says on the tin.

Beside 3GS here in New Zealand is far too expensive comparing to N900 in USA. I got mine from US. For 480US after rebate. Which is pretty cheap. About 650NZD before Christmas. Whereas the 3GS here is Unlocked by Carrier is 1370NZD 32GB. So you get the point :D N900 is pure unlocked OS with price half of the 3GS why should I go with the Apple? Since I'm working with APPLE and PC everyday. I need something to keep my brain exercise and practicing my shell commandline :D

Well, that depends on your operator and package. If you are on pay-as-you-go (as Granny is) an MMs costs about 50p, whereas data is a minimum of £1/day. And it costs nothing to receive an MMS, whereas data costs to both send and receive.

It's time to change cellular operator then, both £1/day and 50p/message are ridiculous nonsense.

really, thats helpfull..

you know what lets just knock gps on the head then, its not needed is it.

NOW you get it. I don't use GPS so the whole thing should be knocked on the head, and nokia shouldn't waste any more energy or resources trying to make it nicer, because people who want GPS are just stupid fools who can't read a map and should have brought a TomTom.

That is precisely the equivalent of what you're saying: you don't use MMS so no-one else should care.

Actually, for the amount I need it, I don't give a rat's arse about MMS. I do care about members of this community being told that their needs are unimportant by people who can't see beyond their own preferences.

I'm far from whinging. I'm perfectly happy with the device, with Nokia and with the service I've received. Indeed, more than happy. I'm one of the few people here with nary a bad thing to say. And I'm utterly blown away by most of the people in the community who spend their time, effort and energy making the whole thing better for all of us.

The only thing I'm 'whinging' about is selfish brats who think that an entire company and development structure should be planned around them, so that if they personally don't want something then it's a waste of resources working on it.

With a good plan, that's still cheaper than MMS because good plans have unlimited SMS included in the monthly rental... ;)

In Soviet Russia SMS chains you!
There is no such thing as "good plan" here.
