Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

there arent even any video's of n900 in hongkong on youtube. Maybe once we have seen how minor 1.2 is we can finally put the thread to rest.

lets face it, we want the update because the n900 is buggy - it was hyped up and never really delivered.
we purchased the handset hoping it would do what we were lead to believe - and within weeks nokia drop maemo in favour of meego. ( i understand its a merger but support ceased )

we were guinypigs. i wouldnt be surprised to see meego on an android device before we see it.

the most upseting thing is
NOT ONLY HAVE NOKIA LET US DOWN, THEY HAVE LET CHUCK NORRIS DOWN

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

just went through the russian site nad found nice comment about n8-00. it's spec doesn't say about CPU and someone says it has no CPU at all and another person confirmed by saying 'yes, it works on electrolytes from the nozzle of virgins instead')

by the way, people on the site mentioned where not so crazy about waiting of pr1.2. they just now are saying, wow, its coming next week? really? awesome... could be better though but still.

are we really crazy?.. weird is the thing that we have overexpectations on pr1.2. we will get more craze when it comes and gives nothing in advance. but at least current-future QT stuff would be unblocked

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

how come they announce the hk n900 - and as seen on some videos they sell it - that one can not find the hk-1.2 firmware on nokia servers - neither navifirm nor tablets-dev.nokia.com show them ?!

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

Well mine ain't buggy - the web browser is awesome, terminal rocks, canola rocks, 4 home screens, plenty of widgets, even mms is working properly, 5megapixel camera with dual LED flash, ir port, fm transmitter, 4 different browsers to choose from (micro-b, fennec, chrome and midori), full open office suite, aircrack-ng, wireshark, support for ALL archive formats, all ebook support, rdesktop, vpn, ability to overclock, timed tasks (i.e. alarmed app), multiple profiles.

it even has limited java support. Most of the really cool stuff is under the hood - and I can do things on this I could only dream of on Android/Symbian.

It's the ultimate device IF you know how to use it.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

I usually follow this post every day, but at this point already reached my limit. There is a lack of consideration by users of the Nokia N900.
I had an idea, and if we collected all in and started to return the Nokia N900? I like him very much but there are other similar equipment on the market and frankly I do not have the patience to wait any longer.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

To be honest, this sort of comment is becoming more and more regular. And in all fairness, I agree.
The handset will never be welcomed by the masses, and only the true fans that "know" how to use the phone to its full potential will benefit.

However, remember that with such a small user base of "true fans" the handset will never gain the support it needs. I am glad that the phone is working well for some, but for others we were sold a phone in beta testing stages and the fix seems none existent at the moment. More and more users are defecting to other handsets, selling there n900's at a loss. Nokia have realy shot themselves in the foot this time.

We know Nokia read this thread, One response from them is all it takes, they have already receive emails enquiring about pr 1.2 and still no answers. Is it because they dont care? Probably!

Does your chrome work perfectly??? I thought it was buggy!

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

Let's collect all the tablets for me, I have patience to wait. As this device is very good now as it is imho. :)

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

friday is 30th, so only the most enthustiastic will skip work at fridays. oh, those people are already unemployed :S
(so pr could be released friday if it is due. finishing touches are good when done in flow vappu causes ;) )

heavy drinking will start at saturday, it seems to be raining so we finns only continue what we just did the whole winter weekends: sit inside and drink ;)

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

Like said many times N900 was unfortunately hyped by the internet. Nokia didn't do it looking at N900 release got no ads, it being 4th step in a 5 step plan (you don't see this being said in a announcement of the device too often) and N900 was done in a Korean factory that could not produce even the under 600 000 in 5 months.
Compared to N97 that sold 2 million in 2 months and had no shortage as it was made in bigger factories in Finland and China. Tells nicely as what kind of sailes was Nokia expecting for this device.

Harmattan was in the works pararell to Fremantel and talked here year before N900 release. It's the first OS to complete the long run plan with Qt that Nokia got from buying Trolltech in 2008. That Symbian will join in later(2011Q1). Nokia is expects/hopes MeeGo/Harmattan to take 20% of it's net sales already in 2011.

n900 HK thread says sales will start on Sat, May 1.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

I don't use it for browsing all the time because micro-b is quite good,

I don't think flash works in it, but thats buggy anyway, but it works fine and it's quite fast acutally - even faster than the N900 browser.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

Released or not??? :-(

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

...certainly not they day Nokia gonna release a PR1.2 for the rest of us.
Especially not this weekend -Finland is partying (and not only the N900 HK release) :D

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

We might end up hearing an official Nokia statement: "If you want 1.2 you must buy the HK version" :D. Im sure they`ll think of many more ways to rip us off...again :D.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

how come that for hk people the firmware is finished and for the rest of the world not? What is the diffrence?

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

Nokia is aligning themselves with HK due to the imminence of World War 3 and HK's superior phone operating skills

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

woah the thread is practically exploding, guess I'm not the only one who though today was going to be the day =/... but it still could be ... fingers crossed xD

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

don't think so, the 3000 marker isnt reached yet.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and its release date
 

1. Any company orientation is getting new users.
2. Any company orientation is being ready for marketing events.

that is normal product management roadmap. You will later see that pr1.x (1.3 or whatever it is) would be created for the Brazil even or something like that.

Nokia aligns their releases with events to balance between stability/feature list to obtain new users. And they are sure you would not sell n900 back. the person who knew what the n900 is and bought it, will never switch to... (there is even nothing to switch to yet!)

so, given above priorities, why do you think they should focus on pr1.2 for entire world and not on HK1.2, Brazil1.3_MeeGo, later 'Cross' QT framework?

Hmmm... you should be more careful... If Chuck Norris saw you writing his name in all lowercase, he'd make sure you'd never write anything ever again.

This thread? Dunno, can't be arsed to check. This forum? Yes, loads. I can think of at least half a dozen names OTTOMH.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and Chuck Norris
 

Thats correct, the last update is more then 12 weeks abo!

And PR1.2 is only a fixpack for some of the Bugs.

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and Chuck Norris
 

Came for Chuck Norris, left rather disappointed :/

Re: Speculation about the next firmware (PR1.2) and Chuck Norris
 

waiting for an update is like being on a long train ride. In time one accepts ones position and a calm decends.

On the train, this takes a few hours. Waiting for an update, a few weeks.

This is of course highly individual, but I for one am not that much bothered by the waiting anymore. Peace.
