Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
I've seen the N900 a couple of times on people and sold the phone to about 5-6 people. Maybe it has an effect that I live in Finland? :)

Quite surprisingly, I've sold the device to people in the age category 20-29 and 40-50, at least two and two in those categories, not sure what I did with the sixth. Sold it to someone though.

EDIT: D'oh I sold it to myself. :D I'm 23.

I saw my first fellow n900er last night on the train home - at least it was my train home. We were busily comparing notes on what we'd downloaded etc when I commented that I'd not seen him on that train before - turned out it was because he'd caught the wrong train. Ooops. At least that still makes me the only n900er in t'village :-D

Have not seen a single other n900 here in SE Florida, and I work in the tech field. Almost all my friends and coworkers I've shown it to have been really impressed (except for a couple iPhone die hards) but they all have smartphones already.

Nokia has also done a very poor job of getting the word out, when I was shopping for a service provider, none of the phone sales people had heard of it.

Not seen any out and about, my local Vodafone shop doesn't have one out on display or any posters up. Don't really go into any other phone shops to have a look, nice to know that the handset isn't as popular as the iPhone I suppose!!

Just saw first one yesterday evening. As I was coming back from office and was in my apartment lift. Another guy came inside and took out his shiny N900.
I smiled and thought, another N900 and that too in same apartment :-) May be I will visit him someday to share each other mod and hack.

Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
Only last week I have spotted the first N900 other than mine in the hands of a woman obviously busy playing a game in portret mode while hold of a toddler reaching out for it with sticky pawns.

The husband was sitting in front of them with a white Nokia E71 laying on the table. Then I looked at my wife sitting next to me playing Mahjong on my N900 and because of the funny resemblance only people on this forum may observe I felt less bored having to surf on her white E71.

No others in Brisbane, Australia... The N97 mini is being advertised as the cool new Nokia smartphone :D

Why do I have to live in such a backwards part of the world :confused: Some days it's like stepping back in time.

Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
Kuopio - Finland, haven't seen any other users, but it gives me plenty of room to brag about being on the edge and having a superawesome internet tablet. I also heard that my uncle has one, he's a salesman and uses it when he's working. I've heard that many people especially when doing a job that requires travelling uses n900 as a work "phone". I wonder why.

Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
Haven't seen any N900 where I hang out in London but I work in the shallow music/media industry so as you can imagine everyone either has an Iphone or one of the many Blackberrys on the market.

Whenever I meet people who have snartphones that aren't one of the two brands I mentioned above they are always geeky/tech savvy people like myself. It seems there aren't many of us around.

I've seen a few Htc Android/winmo phones dotted about, I myself have I900 Omnia which is a winmo phone. Will be getting my N900 in a couple of weeks - can't wait!!!!

I thought I was all alone with my N900 here, but I guess not :D

I went up and spoke to him too without even thinking ... I was too excited ... he bought it to upgrade from his iPhone!

Does this mean as soon as I get my N900 I can expect random folks just coming up to me:confused:


Alright, cool:D

I watched a report on German TV ("Stern TV" on RTL) last night showing the former German spokesman of wikileaks.org Daniel Domscheit-Berg, a.k.a. Daniel Schmitt was using a N900. Just in case someone is interested in this ;-)

Reporting from Malaysia:

Have not seen another N900 in the open.

Looks like;
7/10 using iPhone
3/10 others

Still keeping a look out for the ultra rare N900! We should do one of the "spot me" contest!

:p

I know two other people besides me that have on. One is a new employee at my work, it was a pleasant surprise and ice breaker.

I live in Madrid (Spain) and I have seen only 2 N900 in the underground.

Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
I know of only one other guy who has one.

But anyway, he is the uncontested top-wizard of our local Linux User Group, so this might not come as a surprise.

I seem to be the second one in our Linux User Group to buy a N900. When I brought it to our regular meeting the first time, I was the center of attention of the evening :cool:

As also other friends (all of them highly techie-geeky) were very interested when I showed them my beloved N900, it might be that in the next time, I will know a lot more people who own one :)

Re: Spotted, other N900 users....
 
Meh, haven't seen one. Only two showed interest in mine, one thought it was an N97 and the other was working in a Nokia store.

Then again, I've only ever seen like two-three Iphones so I guess I'm not into the whole interacting with people because of an object they carry game.
