Just so I understand this:

All the energy being expended in this thread is because someone reported what some guy, at some Nokia, some where said, and offered no collaborating information to back this up?

***

To put this in perspective and it being Sunday and all, I wanted to spend some time at church.

I called the local congregation to find out what time services would be today and a guy answered the phone there. He told me what time services would be held but then he added that todays sermon was about death and beyond, and how we should all prepare for this eventuality.

:eek: WTF???

This is the first I'm hearing about this "death" thing and needles to say, I am very disappointed. :mad:

I will never go to church again!
...What's the point if we are all going to die anyway?

:p

YoDude,

You are cluttering this very, very serious thread. It would be nice if you could open a new one about your omnipotence-module not working. While you're at it, perhaps you could open a second one (or two) in competition, so we could actually have a comparison at hand between n900 and the iPhone and the way they perceive death.

Sorry about that. :o

I guess I need to find "Godzilla" and report this "death" bug thing. It certainly wasn't my expected outcome and I'm hoping one of Life's developers will be working on some sort of update.

Boot loading a new image may be problematic though.

We need a new sub forum. It should be called

WTF???

And this thread could be first.

As far as I can tell, the OP owned an n900 for a few months, and then he/she

WTF were you enquiring about? Please don't ask why, but for some strange reason this thread reminds me of this.

Re: bad news from nokia today
 
what "news" is this ?

Anyone with half a brain and a teaspoon of common sense knew this was the case when Nokia announced there will be no official Meego for N900 (or even earlier when Nokia REFUSED to specify an official position until PR1.2)

It was plain as day at that point that Nokia has decided that the N900 was not worth further investment.

If this is "news" to you, then you are remarkably naive. Hell I was naive to believe that Nokia may officially support Meego on N900 when Meego was initially announced.

Continued and official support though? Different beast altogether.

Good luck on that last one. Mine should be here in a week.

Yep. NokiaUSA said they'd give me that $199 price even despite the probs ordering one earlier during that promotion.

Gerbick. Good that you are going to get a n900. Finally you can practically understand why everyone likes maemo 5 & the N900 so much.

If you PM me, I can put you in touch with a guy I know who has figured a work-around for the Death bug. It's quite resource-heavy and requires a bit of commitment from the user to run, but I'm reassured the UX will be amazing in the end.
