Re: I upgraded phone from N9 to N900 and I'm happy
 

I recently used my N900 for a day--just to see. It still holds up. I do love that device, and if something happened to my N9 I would go back to it and stay with it. But I have a working N9, so I don't. The big drawbacks for me (N900) are the less than vibrant screen, the 3G seems slightly slower, the stock browser is just old and Opera/Firefox are not better, the slow processor, & the lack of or half-assed portrait support.
But Maemo just makes more sense than Meego, the UI is perfect. And it's so flexible. I really miss some things. I almost wish I was forced to go back. I know--stupid. What I really want is a 7-inch tablet with the Maemo OS. I really do.

I have to agree on that. With hildon-desktop you could just view the running windows with Ctrl + backspace. I really miss that feature on harmattan. And n900 had tons of applications, hacks, tweaks. That fm transmitter feature was truly amazing. Harmattan has not that much to offer in therms of apps. Maemo was an open system harmattan is an isolated one (unless you have open-mode).

Not to harp on this, but that right there is one of the things I miss from the N800. In Diablo you can see all running programs without pressing a button if you're not running full screen, and if you're running full screen you have a button on the face of the screen that will pull up your list of running applications over the top of whatever program you're currently running.

With the N900 I have to pull out the keyboard, press two buttons on opposite sides of the keyboard, and then many times either nothing happens at all, or there is a big delay before the grid of running apps is displayed.

You may want to install shortcutd ;)

Yes. It seems like that would be a very nice thing for me to install. :)

Thanks!

Don't make the mistake to underestimate the power this device (n900) has :P .

Well, it's well proven and known fact, that n900 does circles around N9/N950 in terms of real usability. Sure, it's ncie to have 1GB RAM - many people would sell they kindley to have it on N900 - but in terms of software/OS, N9/N950 hides ashamed.

Maybe, just maybe, it will change if qwazix & co will succeed with Fremantle compatibility layer in Harmattan (some programs are working already, they're also trying to run hildon-desktop on Harm) - availability of both super-big Fremantle programs base, and super-small Harm one, at the same time, with 1GB of RAM would be something worth considering...

But, some flaws - like lack of microSD slot (unforgivable!), existing, but unconnected to antenna (and, probably, impossible to connect via DIY) FMTX, and crappy capacitive screen (applies only to N9) are non-fixable.

Not to mention other - non critical, but irritating - things, like non-easily replaceable battery and goddamn monoblock body, or lack of hardware keyboard (both N9 only), forcing people to use bulky Iphone'ish bluetooth slide-out keyboards...

Summarizing - welcome back to the world of livings :) Maybe, just maybe (again) Jolla won't fail to provide, but currently, N900 is unchallenged.

you cant even imagine what N900 is capable of ..It is something they call ''rare '' .N9 is just an other way around.
