Re: Going to Mexico...
Skype still works, but Gizmo5 is gone. They were bought up by Google and their servers were finally pulled earlier this year, around April 2011.

Re: A few Nokia 770 questions
I'm not familiar with the term "GM tool". Please define.
The main Achilles' heel with the N770 is that, either due to an N-wifi nearby or too many wifi hotspots, the N770 won't list /any/...

Re: Elops oh s**t moment for Meego
If Nokia doesn't have the resources to maintain 3 OS's, then yes, they need to choose something to drop. WP7 and Android wouldn't require the same OS resources as Symbian and MeeGo, as they're being...

Re: Elops oh s**t moment for Meego

Re: Elops oh s**t moment for Meego
How's this for a conspiracy theory:
1. MS encourages Nokia to hire Elop.

Having problems logging into secure sites, like https://mail.google.com. Can't log onto bank sites either.
Google, Skype, Gizmo5 work.

From the blog, it sounds like Nokia just wants its phone back, which in turn, they could use to discover the inside source. It doesn't sound like they're going after Eldar or his blog, though as a...

Re: The case for a wifi-only device
It would certainly be attractive to me. The N770 price point was around $350 when it debut. The N900 set the bar at $600! For my purposes (traveling device), the N900 was priced just too high. ...

Re: Nokia N900 Counter-Arguments for Complaints
