But in this case, whether it was trolling or stupidity (or both), bringing facts didn't change the results. But I believe this is why so many people tried.

I stand corrected :eek:
From casually browsing 9gag i had the impression those memes centered around being overly or awkwardly thankful to some situation or persons action.
This internet is growing complicated...

We should have a "maemoneans react to post 2010 world" kind of channel.

Ah, well, back "on topic", that could easily be the title for a feature length documentation movie about the Pro1 :D

Bit late then, we've had the same shipment status since last week, the 29th. i.e. shipping to fulfillment centers. We now just have order allocations, which can run parallel to shipping.

Noooooooo! My N900 died today. Or actually didn't die, but at least wounded deadly. I was charging it in my car bench and accidentally put my hand over it when trying to have a brace from the bench. The phone sank to the bench which made a nice craking sound when the whole usb port snipped off. :( I guess I'm going back to Sailfish while waiting the Pro1,

Consider me as being jealous of you having enjoyed your N900 ... for just short of ten years, not!?

Good that the Pro1s have started materializing. ;) Just imagine we were still that bit more in the unknown on that aspect.
Do recall Chen's final remark in Fxtec's recent video concerning the Pro1: "... hopefully you're satisfied with the quality ...". Chen being your fellow (ex-)N900-user ...

What OS were you hoping to run on the Pro1?

Too many people here have shown that they are unable to handle trolling, by continuously providing attention and feedback to the troll, which is primarily what drives a troll:
  • Replies to his postings
  • "Thanks!" votes

As I assume he is still around here (e.g. with his other TMO account) or other people with serious psychological distortions may show up,
  • conquering this thread with gossip again is still easily possible by the help of those "gossip multipliers".
  • nothing is structurally gained, as long as a couple of participants here cannot keep their fingers still (equivalent to "keep their mouths shut"), hence will happily act as a "gossip multiplier" at any time.

tl;dr: Trolling people do exist and hence will show up occasionally. The real bummer is, that a couple of those seemingly interested in a proper discussion were eagerly "feeding the troll" again and again, thus enabling, supporting and leveraging his efforts to suppress any other topic than the troll's own ones.

I agree with both points: this is an interesting case study, and (now that the storm has died down) it could usefully continue in a different thread, maybe "Talk > Off Topic"?

Re: Are you Ready? F(x)tec Pro 1 HW Keyboard Phone
 
While I've refrained from posting on this thread, since my last post was complained about for being off-topic ... even though I was trying to keep it tech centric. I chose to wait till the device came out instead of adding to the noise.

However I think that it inappropriate and off topic to post an image with such offensive offensive slurs and language directly in the threat. For people who just land here looking for device info, they have no choice if they want to see it or not. And will likely just run away.

I would strongly suggest HtheB to move it to another thread or put it behind a link please. I understand that you wanted to prove that shaihkritzer is sending abusive communications directly to you.

But for me this whole thing has left a bad feeling for me. That all we can focus on is complaints, negativity, accusations, and that people who share the love of a silly device call n900 ... could throw around such hateful word that shaihkritzer did ... sad.

If I would guess I would image that being that English is not his native language, he just chose what he thinks is the most offensive terms that would get under ones skin.

I look forward to when the pro1 comes out so we can close and lock or even delete this thread and move on.

Every day a little nerd innocences dies on this thread.

Not sure yet as loads of **** is going down here currently.

I think too this could be archived to some "experiments with live anxious creatures" section for scientific psychological case studies. I vote for new clean thread for the device - when the first ones have been delivered and received. Otherwise the start may not be so clean on the new thread.

Unfortunately the Internet and Social Media have given fools a platform to lash out at people while hiding behind a computer screen, but they are too afraid to say this to your face.

I feel sorry for Chen and others that have had to put up with people like this.

Now that people in the community will be getting their Pro1 phone, this should help with the development of SailfishOS for the Pro1.
I will help any way I can.

I don't see a point in starting a new thread then. When devices start arriving is the perfect point for discussion, and I don't think previous pages would taint that somehow.

Maybe(!) the start of a new clean thread could be linked to Fxtec delivering ...

I'm happy they are moving regardless... We can't speed them up anyway, seems like next week somewhere we should get first reports from people who received one :).

Re: Are you Ready? F(x)tec Pro 1 HW Keyboard Phone
 
The phone can't come soon enough, I've been fed up of my xz1 for 6+ months now. Running out of ram, losing cache in the browser, generally slow, apps not responding, I've never had this issue with previous phones or the Xperia X I had before this, and this current phone is supposed to be faster and better in every way, double the storage and faster (ufs compared to emmc), an extra gig of ram, lpDDR4x compared to ddr3l.

APAC users will likely get tracking code tomorrow (once final dispatch is made) US/EU user will likely* to receive code on Wednesday

New batch also being built.

*Should happen but not definitely, if not then Thursday

Sorry what's APAC?
Also I'm assuming you're referring to second batch being built and the tracking codes are referring to the first (much smaller) batch, right?

Re: Are you Ready? F(x)tec Pro 1 HW Keyboard Phone
 
Nice to have some news, thank you Chen :)
Is there any idea of when the third batch will be done and ready to be expedited from the factory ? I don't ask for an exact date or promise and I don't care if it's next month, but it's just for knowing around when should I sart to obsessively check my emails and the fxtec forum :)

From the context, it probably refers to "Asia Pacific and Australian Continent".
That's a term used in company when dividing operations across geographical zones, like "EMEA" which regroups "Europe Middle East and Africa".

Guess they'll just admit they didn't send anything directly to Asian customers, unlike what what was said by Erik on the official forums. Sure, it's since been known that pretty much only the emails are official information, but if that's to be believed the phones would've been delivered week 44, and we haven't heard anything since.
