Re: N900 Advice
 

It should be noted that if you're coming from an iPhone, you will not have access to an application that synchronizes your music, videos and contacts with your phone.

If you use methods to check/pay your bill via the phone, # or * followed by numbers, you're going to lack that feature as well.

But as far as the IM goes, you're well covered and none of that badly implemented stuff like on the iPhone. True multi-tasking, truly implemented into the OS... and done well.

Music, I'd say that if you're from the school of doing it yourself - I personally like to drag/drop my files as need be - then you're going to be happy there.

Is there anything you can't do with the N900?

I haven't figured out how to get it to do my laundry yet. :p

Re: N900 Advice
 

you cannot live without a charger everyday.

maybe maemo.org ist not the most unbiased place to ask about the N900 ;)

imho the most differences between iphone and N900:

N900
+ multitasking
+ opensource
+ camera
+ IM integration
+ hw-keyboard
+ screen resolution!
+ IR Transmitter
+ FM Transmitter!!!

Iphone 3GS:
+ weight
+ height
+ appstore
+ battery life

My iPhone is just about constantly connected to my laptop through the day for charging, thats why I have my E72!!!!!
I travel a lot so I'm kinda prepared for needing a charger / usb cable to keep it topped up.

Re: N900 Advice
 

I was able to open www.cnbc.com on my N900 in the same format like on my laptop. But in the past few days when I type in the url www.cnbc.com it now takes me to the mobile version and I don't like it.

How do I get the browsing back to the real cnbc.com web page??

Re: N900 Advice
 

Thanks for the replies folks, I will take a look round the site, want to get a feel for whats available on the N900 and what it can do!

Re: N900 Advice
 

Yep, to be honest, the ipod touch and iphone also pretty much suffer from 1 day death after being constantly used hehe.

But in layman, yes the N900 is definately worth it!

Re: N900 Advice
