Re: I've converted an iPhone user to N900

I converted myself to an iPhone for day use. It's great for emails and regular work related connectedness. N900 sits at home for after hour chat as pidgin and multitasking are great.

Understanding a technical aspect of Linux, a piece of code... does it really make you that much smarter?

Wait... no... from what I gathered.. you seem to only know how to change userland settings or some configurable bits which were put there by the coder without a proper UI.

These are what's known as scr1pt k1dd1ez, way back when.

You are absolutely right. But then when you read this thread, you are confused if it is a good thing or a bad thing :p.

Well, I am happy with the current maemo experience considering the fact that I am from a technical background. However in this thread, I have felt like we are arguing over which is the best OS / Phone etc. However, we fail to realize the target market of these platforms. Apple I Phone 4 Vs Nokia N900 is going to be a long and unending war with both sides holding their strong cards and flashin each other. If you are a buiness user (calls, emails, social networking, etc) and a person who truly hates the thought of a downtime, IOS devices are your ideal choice. If you are a games lover, IMO Android and IOS are the first choice for most gaming companies and so, you must be there too. Now comes the thing. If you are the kinda guy who loves scripting, experimenting, bricking and reviving etc etc, also termed the geek or the nerd, preferably the technically aware :p (geek and nerd can be offensive to a few but i mean no offence :p) then N900 was intended for you.

So the target markets are quite different and comparing them actually wont go anywhere. NO platform is perfect as they cannot be perfect as everyone has different expectations and we cannot judge as to what the final outcome should be. Well I have converted around 3 people to get the N900. These were the high end users. All are LCP and OCP certified. One of them being my immediate manager. They are literally in love with this device (1 year up and still loving). One of them even gave up his IPhone 4 to get his N900 after seeing the potential in it. (N900 was provided by the company to him and as he has resigned, he has to return as a general corporate policy. So he sold his iphone for the N900 all over. Many will call him crazy but we geeks know why so shhh :p)

At the same time I cant recommend my CEO the N900. I don't wanna get fired or be sittin next to him the whole day teaching him somethin that he'd forget the next day. Obviously, I'd recommend an iPhone, and I did and he is enjoying the candle app, metal detector app, and god knows what... he seems to enjoy it... (Bonus Guaranteed this year :p).

Well this is utterly my Opinion as this topic actually won't go anywhere :p.
