Re: What have been your 'wow' moments with the N900 so far?
 

The phone itself a BIG "WoW" ... so every moment with is nothing but a "WOW"

p.s. made 8 of my friends sell of their iPhone 3GS and buy the N900 - this can be a wow moment for me.

Same here... Nearly every moment is a WOW moment. Especially the first minutes after unboxing it.

Special wow moments:
Lately we needed to setup a rather complex network but none of the Machines have been plugged yet and we needed the plan. So I downloaded the plan with the N900 and attached it to a beamer to display it to everyone.

This week I was driving to a meeting and a friend of mine was in the car behind me. When we arrived he told me that he was listening to a cool radio station on 88.1 :D

I've had a lot of WOW moments, the last one was....
phone rings, I pick up the call, and start having a conversation *then* realise this was a skype call inbound, and only because the other person told me.
They then pinged me a link in skype IM, I put them on speaker, opened the link to amazon, discussed the item (a proposed present). flipped back to phone and off speaker. finished conversation.

freakin' awesome.

I've had my N900 since before Launch Day (dev loaner - yay), but while I've gotten used to it, it still makes me smile all the time. I knew some of what to expect, but I still got some big WOWs from a few particular things:

WOW...
- The browser is smooth... really smooth. I like my N810, but this makes using it seem horrible in comparison - the Maemo 5 browser is a dream.
- Standard-def movie playback without conversion (when your primary desktop is a dual-core Atom, converting is a pain)
- Finishing up coding a demo app for a presentation *in* the presentation room *on* the phone, compiling on a remote server, and then scp'ing it back to test. A laptop is better if you have one available, but that is undeniably awesome.
- A phone made by a company who's VP says (paraphrased) "people are hacking it, and I think that's awesome!"

Sarcastic-WOW... (not complaining, just raising my eyebrow a bit)
- how did the world clock pass QA when a city in Venezuala ended up in Italy, as well as a fair few other messed up cities like that? The answer I got when I asked was "I shouldn't comment on that"... XD

I have tried multiple sites for streaming and not one has worked. The audio is there but the picture is a mile behind and stutters like hell. Can i ask which version of flash you have, as it says mine is not 9.4.

sshfs root@192.168.1.108:/home/user /home/eric/n900

WOW!
And practical too, since it transfers much faster than bluetooth. Now we just need a dynamic DNS client...

It was wow when I connected the N900 to the laptop via USB and could use it as a 3G modem without any additional configuration. It just worked (Ubuntu 9.10). :D

The other wow moment was when I first got audio out of the FM receiver hardware in September. :D

My wife and I putting up a couple of tv shows onto the N900, then watching through our living room tv via the cables from the N900. :D

Like a tiny dvd player. So awesome.
