I think that guy just like to see himself on video.

"few questions answered in a video, later..." or do I remember wrong?

How can you not have Twitter?

Re: Nokia exec Niklas Savander welcomes your questions on Twitter
 

I have some questions:

1. Will the N900 get support to make coffee?
2. Will the next update to Ovi Maps bring support to instant teleportation?
3. Will the N900 be able to turn water into wine?
4. Will the next update bring a cure for cancer?
5. Will the camera be able to take xrays?
6. Will PR1.3 include support for emulation of PS3 and Xbox 360 games?
7. Will the N900 enable me to fly?
8. Will the N900 be waterproof?
9. Will the N900 be upgraded to a quad core?
10. Will the N900 battery be able to replace my car battery?
11. Will the N900 be able to transform in a car/plane?
12. Will the N900 be able to shoot missiles?

Q: What can you tell us about USB ports falling out of N900s, and Nokia's spotty response to warranty?

Re: Nokia exec Niklas Savander welcomes your questions on Twitter
 

Btw, do you guys really think that there are other people apart from people on this forum prepared to ask questions? I mean, c'mon we are discussing this hardcore... loool... It's all bout the N900... :cool:

Re: Nokia exec Niklas Savander welcomes your questions on Twitter
 

OMG at all the people expecting answers to these questions. Have you never seen one of these online "interviews" before?

Here's a few hints:
- The guy is new and hardly knows everything about every product there is.
- The N900 was but a tiny part of what marketing do, probably just a sidekick for them.
- His job is Marketing which would include PR. What he's gotta be good at is defusing difficult questions with vague promises of big stuff later.
- If he's good at his job, you'll all be signing up to buy N9's and N10*'s at the end of the discussion. Without giving a single promise.

* Not the likely next model number

Re: Nokia exec Niklas Savander welcomes your questions on Twitter
 

If he gets a lot of questions about the N900 asking about long-term support like Android and iPhone get (more like a PC as a major investment than a throwaway phone), it may suggest there's an active community of cash-rich, technically excitable early adopters who it's worth keeping on side.

If he gets lot of smart-sounding questions about open source and its implications for making better devices, better system software and a great app market, he might take note that a not insiginificant set of intelligent developer-users around here. If he's smart he may realise Android is pretty good and advancing all the time, and Nokia can't catch up without getting - and keeping - enthusiastic good quality developers interested.

However if he gets a majority of questions asking for Flash 10.1, I despair :-)

Can someone ask him if anyone has ever provided a thoughtful and complete answer with just 160 characters?

More specifically, why don't they just recognize it's a hardware problem and do what Microsoft does. Replace it, no questions asked. Heck they even use to send you a box free of charge for you to put the device in and even pay for shipping.

Re: Nokia exec Niklas Savander welcomes your questions on Twitter
 

I know that Nokia is a bit different but their executives all look the same in their pictures. Kind of like Finnish estate agent pictures. They need a better photographer and a wardrobe stylist for their promo pics. These little touches add a lot.

On the questions, I think you guys have it covered so far.
