Re: N950 will succeed N900
 

Well, they'll be hard pressed to support it less than the N900. Unless of course it it's bug ridden when launched, which seems all too likely.

Re: N950 will succeed N900
 

For the record, I suggested a hot-swappable battery way before the N900 was born. We had one of those superlong threads about the N900 and there was never a sign that Nokia even read it.

Re: N950 will succeed N900
 

Ah, hot swappable would be nice. But not being swappable at all, like, say the N8... or iToy.

Talking Big, Talking Bug
 

One of the most nice features of this forum is the Talking Bug, that is, the Talking Big of some users.

I'm a happy N900 user for 12+ months now, and my next phone will be an N900 (not only because I don't want to familiarize with a new GUI every time I buy a phone).

QWERTY: I did never have problems. What do you mean by "dust/grease resistant"? I would have my entire home furniture to be dust/grease resistant.

SEAL DEVICE: you seem to ignore that blocking even the last bit of airflow eases overheating.

OMAP44xx or MEDFIELD: yes, a bit of extra computing power is always welcome. But it has a price (money and battery and possible hardware/software problems). Did you overclock your N900, didn't you? What about 1150MHz vs 600MHz? Did the "almost doubling" double your "user experience"?

SGX554MP4: please, first let's talk about drivers and usage, then let's talk about GPUs. 99% of software ignores 2D/3D acceleration.

128-256Gb: I stored my entire MP3 collection on the N900 and still have some gigabytes for placing movies and anime (which I delete after watching: do I actually need already-seen movies on my phone every day?)

HDMI, DACs, SPDIF: how many times in a day you *need* video output capabilities from the N900?

MicroUSB 3.0: how many times in a day you *need* USB3 peripherals?

MicroSHXC UHS-1: how many N900 owners bought a microSD to enlarge those 32Gb internal flash?

Wifi-N, HSPA+: what is the medium file size that you transfer on your N900 (except for movies)?

Screen resolution: did you ever feel that 800 horizontal pixels are way too little? Are you able to distinguish between two consecutive pixels?

...
Stop, stop, stop.

The only problem with the N900 is that the 256Mb RAM are good only until you don't install memory-hungry software.

Most people will like a better battery. Not surprisingly, I am very happy with the standard battery. How much time are you far from an USB port? In my everyday life -work or holiday- I'm never far from an USB port or USB charger more than a few hours.

Re: N950 will succeed N900
 

i AM often away from usb ports...
cause i use my n900 at places "as a pc" where i even dont have a subnote, f.e. when with the boat. or in the garage. or at my relatives. or or or...
i often load the battery in my car when i drive to such places. but it would be really fine to be sure that one can use(!) the n900 for more than 4 hours before battery goes low.
And when battery is low, the n900 refuses some times to load in the car or even at home - so a low battery is a really annoying thing.

[QUOTE=SirTurbo;957188]
I started to uese a solar powered charger: brand name: Solar Mobile Phone Charger (?, not very telling I agree). You can use this one as an extra battery and charge it from the laptop

Re: Talking Big, Talking Bug
 

a rugged device is a must for many people. just because YOU don't want doesn't mean others need it.

yes. let's not use better and newer components, with that mentality your N900 could have a 1Mhz cpu. There's a reason why manufacturers actually improve the devices with more computing power.

My entire MP3 collection has 372Gb. Just because your collection is small doesn't mean others want more storage. Also if you don't need movies others will want that.

4 times a day for me. I want that capability. I'm sure many others want it too.

at least 3 times a day. work related.

I've 2 32gb micro sdhc plus 2 16gb sdhc.

6mb, often transferring +100 files.


STOP. don't be narrowminded. just because you don't need doesn't mean others want. If we all acted like you we would still have black and white TV's and 286 cpus.
Stick with your N900. Me and many others will buy the N950. don't rant about it.

Re: N950 will succeed N900
 

Yeah, just put in everything you can for abou 600 € and ill buy it.
N900 is great. A redesigned N900 may be better if nokia doesnt loose any features (like the HW Keyboard and the Stylus (i know, its not the latest fashion to use this, but it realy allows good browsing experience and stuff)
The next device should have a native USB-Host. But thats all i miss.

Edit: Who is responsible for this nice Tags crushing my wet dreams?

Re: Talking Big, Talking Bug
 

It wasn't that he didn't need it. He pointed out the justification that having a completely seal and 'rugged' device would be very hard to implement as it would cause internal problems such as over heating.

Your entire list is asking too much in my opinion. You seem to forget the limitations of building an embedded device and love buzzwords and want the biggest, fastest things and claiming "SHUT UR FAEC, EVERY1 WANTS A 34753498256Ghz, USB3, 10Tb, DESTRUCTION PROOF, MAGIC PHONE. I WILL BUY IT. IT R THE FUTURE, LUDDITES."
