Re: Goodbye N900. Hello N8!

That's your opinion. I happen to think the N8 is a really good "smartphone" - whatever that means. I would not consider any phone that does not send mms to be a smartphone.

ALL software has bugs. All hardware has bugs too. Most people don't realize how complicated these phones actually are and how much work it really takes to put one of these together.

Re: Topic of the Day: Should Nokia Drop Meego and roll with Android?

You meant to say, "Should google drop android and go with meego and symbian". In which case, yes.

Re: Official: No MeeGo for the N900

Actually, the people in Nokia DO care about people.

Just because Meego on n900 may not be "officially supported upgrade" does not mean it won't run on it.

But, besides, that did you ever think...

Re: [Leaked PR1.2 RC] Info and Discussion thread

ermmm... No. Because what you installed is not "PR1.2". Nor is it "PR1.2 RC". Nor is it even up to date. Why the heck would Nokia want users testing an old, broken image?

Re: Sync N900 With Macbook using Nokia Multimedia Transfer Tool

Songbird can sync with any folder (with a plugin), and you can put n900 into Mass Storage mode and sync your music that way.
It also runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Re: Here's a general idea of just how badly we're getting screwed

One other reason US mobile phone users get fleeced, is that they also pay for incoming calls and messages as well.

I believe most other parts of the only pay for outgoing voice, sms and mms.
