No. Basically, none of the phone features you're used to from S60 phones are there. You have simple voice calls and text messages. That's it. Pretty much what the Nokia 1200 does for €25,-.
Don't think of it as a smartphone. Think of it as the mini version of a tablet that got basic telephony features because 3G data was already built in.
Are you serious??? Its sold as a smart phone (even on Nokias own site).
I wish you people would stop accepting these and many more shortcomings and use the strength of numbers on these forums to proactively encourage Nokia to make the changes we need instead of accepting its a half baked prototype for future phones/devices (which btw its NOT sold as - unlike some seem to suggest on here).
Do you just accept problems/faults in everything you buy??
Its hardly suprising there are so many negative posts.
Just a notice for those that would like this feature - I have started working on it, but there are a couple blockers - one which I made an own thread for: here
Maybe some of you can be of help and we can get this nice feature to work on our devices!
I pushed flite to extras-devel some time ago, so it should be reasonably straight-forward to implement once we know how to use/about the phone API.
First, thanks for doing this! But I have an question. Does it work on your N900? I installed the flite and libflite packages for use with maemo-mapper, and when text is played via the internal player it sounds very off. Almost like it's sped up about 20x. If I output to wave (or standard out) and use play-sound or media player to play the stream/file, it works fine.
Is there a setting maybe that didn't make it into the package?
