Am I the only one that thinks than being tied up is wrong?
Using jabber (gtalk for example) and I can use whatever the h*** I want to talk with someone. I can be talking on my phone, get home and go on talking on my computer with a nice keybooard; can't do that with whatsup!
The older I get, the more I hate being tied up to a company's software, whichever it is.
Just my two cents
I agree with your rant, unfortunately there are still plenty of reasons those closed standards thrive:
- Better UI/UX
- More features
- Faster development
- Bigger (locked up) user base
Etc.
well, the way it can really be done, is if you Port android on your n900.
Nitdroid.com
i did it, whatsapp works on android, but wont work on the n900 just yet. Nitdroid needs a little bit more work. but yeh, of u want whats app, get nitdorid on your n900;
i have installed nitdroid on my phone its really gud pretty stable not perfect but usuable but even through nitdroid and using market many apps and games are not available such as whatsapp just yet!

quoted for truth. using this app is like going in the 90s when msn and yahoo couldnt talk to each other.
i know what you mean
many people do have this app .
and this app is a mind game.
people think that you can send free sms with this app.
The truth is that this app is like Skype or any other app because you have to be online via mobile network or wlan to use it.
And people keep asking me if i do have this app because they want to contact me via this app.
********.
true what's app requires internet connection, but u can send, photos, voice clips, messages, i think even group messages to people's what's app on their phones....it's more like a threaded conversation type app...and it's pretty neat.
I see android, BB, symbian users using it...would be nice to have N900 connect via apps to such phones as well.
that's the thing, lot's of people have the ishit, and android, and they all have whatsapp, they get used to using it so they kind of refuse going "online" and logging in on another service.
