Re: New members say hello !
 
Hello there!
Didn't know there was a hello thread for new members, so I've been around and posting here and there already.

The name is Darkwolf. Long time Nokia fan and when I got one as my second cell phone, I never ever switched to anything else since then.
Was also right there on the spot when the first Symbian smartphone (7650) came out and from then on it was all Symbian for me.
When I had the Nokia N95 I noticed that Symbian was starting to get long in the tooth even for me and Nokia's competitors were starting to strive ahead in their own OS ventures and (hardware) features.
Although I was still happy with my "simple" Nokia N95, I was a bit worried about Nokia.

But then... out of the blue... there it was... the Nokia N900!

After a lot of reading and pondering or I should leave my trusty Nokia N95 behind with Symbian all together as it didn't have any short comings or missing features for me, I found out that my subscription was almost due and I jumped the fence.
And boy am I glad for making that move.
Being a tech freak I adapted in no time from my keypad plus text prediction input kung fu to the QWERTY keyboard on the Nokia N900, which was my only true worry.

I remember the pains with the initial release of the Nokia N95 and how many firmwares it took before it became speedy and long lasting battery wise, so here I am again. Back to where I started.
It's ok though, it has been over 3 years since I was part of the early adopters world and I am ready to play again and go through it all once more.

Now if you excuse me, I have a Maemo forum to read as I've become quite addicted to it... :p

Hello forum users!

I like this forum very much and explore it on a daily basis to learn about my beloved n900.

One thing I couldn't figure out until now is how to set a profile picture (Avatar) for my forum account. I searched and found the following post:

Unfortunately I can't find the "Edit Avatar" link and if I open the above mentioned link a page gets opened where I can't change anything (see attached screenshot).

Please can you give me hint what I'm doing wrong?

Hello
I live in Birmingham England and I got my nokia n900 about a month ago and i love it.

I have never really used Linux before so its been a bit of a learning curve with the xterminal etc but I am loving getting to know this new platform and i love the fact it is backed up by this great community.

Saying hello from Canada.

Got it last night jumping from N97 to N900. Much better except I can get the freaking Map Loader to work. :(

Hi all! just amazed with the n900 as all of you guys are. glad to be a part of the community!

Re: New members say hello !
 
I want to say hello here also from The Netherlands.

N900 is the best in my opinion!!
And the n900 community is the most helpfull and progressive that there is .

(hope it stays that way and there won't be any apple trolling or something like that )

No offence to apple or other device owners , everyone should have the phone that one finds the most compatible with ones needs,

I'm pretty desperate to replace my iPhone with an N900, but the USB port falling out scares me!! ARRGHH! Jumping ports!

Welcome guys, you really come in in big quantities!
Glad to have so many newcomers to the forum.

Hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do.
Please excuse for the troll you'll find here, there's still no solution for those.

But please, be part of this community, ask questions, answer to others questions, participate and be as much active as you can! :)

So again, Welcome!

Hi all,

Just registered. I'm in the UK and have had my N900 for a few weeks - and bricked it today :-( Think it's beyond repair, flashing didn't fix it.

New to maemo, and a bit of a noob on Linux with only 15 years experience. Slightly more on other Unix, about 23 years. Never stop learning eh?

Dave.
