One guy 3 hate messages to the iPhone ???.. Listen.. I've had the n900 its not for the casual user. You really need to be a Geek to understand this phone.. Thats why the phone will never sell as much like the n95 which I also have.. the n95 is still better than the n900. the iPhone is just perfect once you jailbreak it.. Face it!!!! Me to kept defending this phone but it failed...

Another post for the Whine cellar...

What is wrong with you posting ANOTHER totally useless posts like this?
Stop sobbing and sell the damn phone and buy something that would meet your needs better *sigh.

Seriously, the phone hasnīt been out for lets say just over 2 months worldwide and all you miserable posters nagging and whine about feeling tricked or cheated in some way or the other is a mystery.

It sure beats my old N95 in every possible way, and the N81/82/85/86 and 20 phones of various brands (mostly Nokia) I have had for the last 10 years or so.
Donīt know how old you are but back in the days when the iphone came out I got my hands on one in Newyork and well, lets just say I wasnīt impressed with the right-out-of-the-box functionality it had to offer. it was probably the most useless phone ever (you get tired pretty quick playing the pinch game with you crappy photos...)

Look at it today, one of the top sellers with a ton of gadgets BUT thats THREE years after initial release, you are nagging and crying about a phone thats not even been out in the stores for THREE months.

Some phones been utter crap right out of the box up till they gave up some just broke down, some messy OS that were REALLY buggy.
I either returned it, sold it or put in a drawer but never cried like a baby like you people.

So sell your phone, should be pretty easy since Nokia canīt deliver fast enough as it is at this point since they miscalculated the huge demand worldwide.

Goodluck :)

(Although i suspect your a troll)

Maybe he was hoping for some more positive news regarding his issues with the N900 instead of being told to shove off and go buy something else? He did point out that he's been faithful to the brand and feels disappointed by the current offerings.

I propose this thread for locking. It has ceased (or never really did) contributing positively to this forums and has regressed to basically a crapflood.

How about proposing some solutions to his complaints? Particularly the software complaints, since software is something that can be improved in an already-released product, rather than squelching the conversation about it. Just a thought to help progress things instead of censoring complaints.

Admittedly, though, there are MANY posts here which are not helping the discussion in any way.

Fine, list them up and we can look at them elsewhere. -THIS thread-, much like the one from yesterday, has ceased being useful.

that turned it into a 'crapflood'?

Those weren't even clips out of larger posts..that was the entire content in two of your 'posts' here. Maybe think twice before calling someone else a troll?

The second comment was regarding the arrival of Guber99 who has no real business hanging around, as he has apparently returned his N900 in exchange for an iPhone.

My first was basically regarding the spate of threads that start out with rather grating titles. Then they proceed bring up issues that are not unheard of, or are known issues, or are things that are Nokia's responsibility. Hell the 6th post in the thread -finished it-. We know the issues. We've heard them before. Harping on them again and again and again will not help speed things along.

A few moments with the search button, or just browsing the forum for a bit, would tell people this.

This type of thread pops up 3 times a farking day or more. Do we really need a new thread every single time some tosser decides he no longer wants the phone?

I don't create a new thread every day I wake up and decide to keep it.

If no one would reply, the threads would just die. Fact is, they have an audience on this board.

Bingo! Well said

You have a philosophical problem with that concept, I'm guessing. Okay, that's your right.

But it's also the right of others to be perfectly happy with providing that goodwill. So if you are unsatisfied and wish to look elsewhere for a device to meet your particular needs, I wish you sincere success. But please don't begrudge those who don't mind the pitfalls of early adoption and the responsibility of community coding.

EDIT: I don't get a sense of malicious intent from your posts, and I appreciate that.

Re: After years of great experiences with Nokia, I got an N97 and a N900. Sadly.
 
well i love my n900

it was clearly known what the device was going to be , waht features were missing , what to expect

iam not dissapointed with it , build qaultiy on mine is good (touch wood) , hardware is nice , everything works , no reboots , nice features , evolving everyday , 6 new apps have made it to extras today

yeah there are things i would like it to do better but i defo knew what to expect when i bought it and didnt expect anything for granted as it was clearly a new device with a new o/s

even the mighty iphone took ages to implement mms users here have it up and running in a matter of weeks/months which was alot quicker then apple could manage with all their money etc

everything i own , my car , my stereo , my house , my tv , i could say ''but yeah if it done that'' or ''it should do this that one does'' but id rather enjoy my purchase rather then grumble about it

the last device that made me moan was the n97 due to gps and camera i got a brand new replacement and sold it and bought the omnia hd

if you hate it go back to a more original phone or one that suits your tastes better

big shout to the forum for helping/supporting the n900 with all the apps guides etc really appreciated and making my n900 expereince even better

peace peeps :-)

as more people buy this device and look for answers to same uncorrected problems you will get threads that raise same issues over and over again.........and how will these threads disappear: simply by having NOKIA DELIVER AND FIX ALL THE BUGS ! UNTIL THEN YOU WILL BE GETTING SAME POSTS OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

have u been reading these forums? I dont know if anything is going to get solved by proposing solutions for majority of the people who have been complainig .. a) the first phone with maemo, b) ,they were spending ~600$ on it; these 2 facts alone demands doing research ... this cell phone is not going to become what it is not in the next few months so no one can promise or propose anything like that. The *problems* that are there, most of them are here to stay on n900 because they really are not problems, they are perspectives.

n900 is a different kind of device, i am sorry for people for whome it came as a shock. They should now learn something from it. There are people, like me, for whome this device is superb. I dont drop $600 on anything easily, i did so much research when i had to spend $250 on nvidias's gtx 260 you have no idea (i could list and compare all the good graphics cards out there in detail). When it came to N900, $600 ws like a huge investment into the future whose returns were guaranteed (i was although worried that I may not get a defected unit bcuz i had read the forums alot). 2 months and it has exceeded my expectations. You have to also understand this that when I express my positive thoughts about n900 I do not at all mean thats its flawless, I do wish everyday that the battery life was 3 times more than it is. For me the good things exceed the bad so i dont come running to forums with "do u regret", "i hate this i hate that" posts.

hope this helps ....

It also delivers on keeping you confined to its jail. Sweet opression - gotta love it.

Came from N97 two, after a few firmware updated it was a great phone imo, sometimes a little slow yes, but expected with the smaller cpu.

N900 is imo the best mobile computer phone out there (call it smartphone if you like), all the os out there has shortcomings when they come out, but with time these will be sorted out. Better to get a functional phone, than allot of functions that does not work right.

Speed is fine two, can handle multiple multitasking, without really slowing down much, and if you are used to the internet tablets, you can really feel the extra power here.

Enjoy your phone, and be patient, all features will come in the future,

Ok, thank you very much for your words.
At first I thought that what I got is what I will get, and that I can only rely in good will coders.
I will wait a few months and spend a little time posting brainstorms or ideas.
Regards.
