Re: [Announce] Linguine - News & Politics from around the world

For someone reading foreign language news, Linguine has one big advantage over the built-in rss reader: the convenient copy-paste function. I am using this together with QStarDict to read several...

Re: How many of you still use N900 as main phone?

About Tagesschau: my N900 is at home, so can't confirm at this moment. But I can tell you that I was able to watch it regularly on CuteTube (note: in addition to the regular program, there is a...

Re: 128GB micro SD

Re: 128GB micro SD

I would also like to know the brand, as I have wasted quite a bit of money on supposedly 128GB micro SD cards. None worked. The Samsung 64GB EVO micro SD SDXC does work on my N900.

I made the same offer on July 1. Asked the guy to give me name and address so I can pay him via Paypal. Still waiting for a reply--I guess he doesn't visit this site much.

Re: Will 64GB microSD fit in N900?

I bought a Samsung 128GB micro sd card for $50. It worked on my N900. But because I lost (or can't locate) the N900, it is currently in my Sony Xperia Z Ultra. I had to do a reformat, but it works.

Re: Latest And Greatest!

I may get a Sony Xperia Z Ultra. 6.44" full HD screen; Snapdragon 800; MicroSD slot. The only feature missing is a removable battery (3050mAh though).

Re: New N9 or not?

The built-in apps may be there for a particular region. My brand new N9 came with some Vietnamese apps, because it was made in Vietnam. I had to delete them manually.

Re: N900 best phone I've ever had!

It's definitely not the best phone, but it's the best micro computer ever made--I put up with the poor phone features every day only for this reason.

Re: LUMIA 900 only $449?

I own N770, N800, N810 and N900 (haven't sold any of them), but also own at least 5 other computers with Win 7. Is it a sin to show some interest in Microsoft OS? What if it is good?
