@Mara: Doesn't work on my 3GS. Maybe because I'm currently roaming (although I have data roaming on).

I can't believe some people.

When anything goes wrong on a Nokia (take the N97 or N900 for example) people are screaming from the rooftops about how S*it Nokia are etc

Apple releases a new product, A fault occurs and just accept it and buy a case or patch it up themselves.

Apple brainwashing at it's best

(Likely in dBm.) This may work on new iPhone too and would tell in much more details how much the signal is affectd by touching different spots on the antenna. Anyone with iPhone can check it out...

That was for first gen, it will now just say "USSD Test Response. Hi!" on 3G and higher. I think the codes now have changed.

This is the point => .





This is you => you


The point, you missed it. The USB port thing has been justified by tons on this forum. The lack of official mms has been justified by tons on this forum



Ps: I own an n900

How did this go from Apple, to Nokia... to America?

I wouldn't justify any faults.

If the USB port fell off my N900 I would take it back to be repaired.
I'm not the sort of person to go "oh well, I have a 5800. I can charge my battery in that"

The MMS argument isn't really valid.

When the iPhone was released without MMS Users responded with comments like "who really needs it, I have email etc"
Then when the iPhone received MMS functionality, it was hailed a revolution.
The N900 was released without MMS, What's the difference??
