Re: What phone are you going to get after the N900 ??
 

I get a bit more than one day of my battery but if i use it very hard then the battery may need more recharging, just like yours.

But i once bought a zte blade, which i later gave to a friend since i found out that i really hated android and bouht a second N900 instead, but i kept the charger from it which is extremly small, and which i always bring with me in my pocket.

Unfoutunately, there wont be a worthy replacement for the n900 before Kubuntu, plasma, windows xp or something similar gets onto a decent gsm/4G-hardware.And that will probably thake a while ;(

you are right of course . I should've written it properly: it isn'T available from my phone provider (I think either 3 or tmobile have it )

"Problem" is that I like to use the pen with my N900. the N9 doesn't have a pen anymore and - correct me if I'm wrong- is finger optimized and won'T work well with pens -- or does it?

Having looked at a Samsung Note in a shop I do like the feel of it - unfortunately it was one of those without battery so you can'T bu tit on but whatever - and the fact it has a pressure sensitive pen! now If that could run Maemo or Meego .. hmm that would be cool

Ask yourself - Is your phone a tool or a toy ?

Because when the "hardcore" speak, many treat theirs as a toy for recreational tinkering rather then for functionality - hence insistence on full open source. Face it - unless you are a sysadmin of some type or work in unix env full time (and some do on here), terminal and FOSS is not going to increase your productivity.

if your phone is a tool, then there are a myriad of phones out there for you. You dont have to love your tool, as long as it does its job, who gives a flying fvck whether its open or not.

3 and T-Mobile both had it back in October when the N9 was released. Now three months later both dropped it in favor of the Lumia 800... :(

Seeing that quick drop of availability of the N9 (in Australia Vodafone also doesn't offer it anymore after three months), I decided to buy me a second unlocked N9 to be safe.

Not sure about tizen with the html5 app stuff .. gotta see how that actually works out ..

Similar here in Austria :(

Apart from that I am thinking along the lines of .. should I really be giving a company, that didn't just screw over the Community once but does it again with a new product (with it having been clear quite a while before the N9 was even out, that it will be the *first and last* MeeGo phone), money or rather try out something different..

Re: What phone are you going to get after the N900 ??
 

That is of course a valid point. For me it is both, as I am a long time Linux user, admin and developer. I was overjoyed to find a Shell pre-installed on my device and all the python modules needed either installed or easily installable!
So for me it does make a difference ;)

Which is why I haven'T gone out and bought an Android device so far. I'm gonna try some battery saving tips from the forums here and/or maybe get a battery off ebay (but who knows how long those last ..) - if everything else fails and I "have to" retire my N900 (at least as a phone - I'd keep it as internet tablet and as FCamera cam ;))

I do wonder if you could put maemo/meego on a Samsung Galaxy note as I really like the hardware from what I've seen ;)
