More s h i t on NOKIA N9.....sad...muy sad

http://blog.gsmarena.com/nokia-n9-fw...res-the-proof/

If you wanna REALLY want to see MILF:s go get a windows phone instead. I am sure WP will support video calls...

having a release date target of Q2 cut short to Q4 is a hell of a task.
on projects i've worked on we had our planning and workload set with a tight deadline. we had it knocked short by 2months due to unforeseen circumstances and because of this it wasn't up to scratch. we had to focus on core tasks and anything that was deemed small risk had to be pushed back in the queue. on the product rollout with the software and hardware did as it was intended but had bugs and features that were planned weren't implemented. but by our original deadline we had it as originally planned. Changing a date on a product release to an earlier one is a massive pain in the hole and given that the original deadlines are nearly always set to be tight it's even worse.

again this may not be the case but it holds as much weight as the other theories and perspectives.

Why should I? The N900 already supports Video Calling

Do WP videocall support MILF:s?

Only if they happen to be Mike's mom.

*runs*

This beauty arrive today!

if you take a closer look at it theyr not that different. the share same git repository too. and i think they have to differentiate cause of different ui. I dont see that as a big issue. it waz WAY worse when n900 used gtk+ and symbian its own crap sdk. now all share core stuff.

omg I actually realisd i am writting this message on n9 bit slow but vkb is awesome as vkbd

Since when was that news, known for ages...

Yep it's Pentile AMOLED (what Samsung calls Super AMOLED*) + Nokia's CBD tech.
Unfortunately it's not Super AMOLED "Plus"...
So only 8x RG-BG-RG-BG sub-pixels, Vs SAMOLED+'s 12x RGB-RGB-RGB-RGB.
So 50% more sub-pixels, as Samsung likes to boast!
But this only matters for some warmer colours, they're sometimes a tiny bit more grainy/pixelated.
And some text, particularly very small text....
But at the pixel level the N9 does have about 15% more density, plus Nokia's CBD brings some improvements.

Worthwhile reading the 1st 6-posts (and links) here:

It's also brighter than the SGSII's, one person's anecdotal claims:
Jakimans comparo....

One issue is that adjustment of brightness isn't quite as granular as the SGSII.
So one can't get it just a tad brighter w/o reaching the pink tinge issue** at top brightness.
But hopefully that will be rectified with a hack...

It's a shame they couldn't have gone with SAMOLED+, & kept the res. at approx. 854x480.
That would've made the N9 better than many phones out now, except for beast phones on the way.
I hope they upgrade the panel later, but now that they've thrown all their chips in with MS.
I doubt that the N9 will ever get any hw refreshes, even very minor ones...

*the sub-pixel config. is exactly the same, but it may be more than a marketing name
**not confirmed if that's a wide-spread issue yet.

I use them every day, so I like to think that I know what I'm talking about. There is no need for the differentiation when working at such a high level. That's the whole point of it, to abstract away the differences in low-level APIs. Of course the low-level code will be different, but the declarative components can, and should, be the same. The bigger problem is that there are many basic features in Symbian that don't work unless you resort to native Symbian C++ code. You can't even use the hardware volume keys in Qt.

Come back when you've tried developing some Qt applications for Meego-Harmattan, Freemantle and Symbian.
