Re: Turn by turn directions on the N900?

So, another step down from the N8x0 then? Android looks more appealing all the time (coPilot is only £26)

Re: Is it possible to enjoy the n900 web experience with a pay-as-you-go sim in the U

Give three a go on PAYG. That's what I did about 3 years ago, figuring worst case I lose £10. I'm still with them, paying about £6-7 per month

Re: Is it possible to enjoy the n900 web experience with a pay-as-you-go sim in the U

Skype is "Voice Over Internet Protocol" protocol, therefore IS VOIP. It also closed, proprietary and cr4p. VOIP doesn't define the protocol used. Cisco use their own closed protocol, which isn't...

Apart from three, where I regularly stream from last.fm, and have made MANY phone calls over both Skype (which they actually encourage you to do) and SIP.

Re: Now it's official: Maemo 5 and the N900 launch!

Unforuntately, explaining it doesn't make it any more palatable. My n800 was under £300 - it's going to be hard to convince the missus to let me drop £500 (500 E + 15% VAT). It needs to be closer...

Re: Is it possible to enjoy the n900 web experience with a pay-as-you-go sim in the U

REMFwhoopitydo, you top up as a regular PAYG phone, then use their mobile web site to active the 30 day internet add-on.

They also offer a "mobile broadband" add-on for £10 for 30 days/1GB, but...

Re: Is it possible to enjoy the n900 web experience with a pay-as-you-go sim in the U

I use the £5 deal Jaffa mentioned, works great. I actually use it to tether my n800 to my phone. I make hardly any phone calls, and few texts, so it costs me about £6 per month. Oh, and three now...

Re: Perfect time to release Maemo 5.

Re: N900 specs revealed

Re: Losing the best-res title

Yes. I can't walk down the street holding using a netbook, and a phone is (generally) too small to be very useful when browsing the news while lying on the sofa. 4-5" can be the best of both worlds.

Re: "Fixed in Fremantle"

if I log a software bug on my n800, and you tell me that it will be fixed if I buy an n900, then you ARE NOT fixing that bug for ME.
