Good man. :)

Such as the opening of the video driver, and the MeeGo hardware adaptation? I find it quite impressive for a device that far past its prime.

I'll believe it when I see it running. Opening of the N800 video drivers? As I recall, it wasn't opened per se.

I think it was. At least TI made a press release about it. But I don't know what happened to it. :confused:

one for two years just suits me fine
e.g. my N78 still runs smoothily after two years since my graduation from senior school

It's out of stock and no deal as described in the first post is being offered -- correct? (Bummer, I skipped the thread this morning thinking it was spam :( )

So, am I right that the deal no longer exists, or am I doing something wrong?

don't know if the deal is over or not but the n900 is listed as "temporally out of stock" on the site.

i was unsuccessful in purchasing. nokia said my card would not process even though my bank showed the charge and said no problem. now its out of stock. i called and spent an hour on hold on the phone, only to have them tell me they would call me back. no call back. just a 'your order has been canceled' from a noreply email. eat a dick, nokia

Appears that the deal page formerly linked here:
http://www.nokiausa.com/nokia-deals/...n900sumsavings
Doesn't show up anymore... Does anyone else know if the deal is off now?

The promo still lives here, but appears to be disabled. Perhaps they will re-activate the promo when/if they have more stock available!?

Edit: Promo has been removed from Nokia site.
