Hi, guys!

I'm gonna buy a N900 and hope it will be as nice as I imagine. Of course I will participate in the community if I like the my little friend ;) That's why I'm saying: HELLO EVERYONE! =)

I wrote a few programs for Windows using .NET but never wrote anything for Linux. I just hope it's not too hard and I can make some cool apps :cool:

Hi I'm Hass from the UK, been a Nokia fan for a long time and have been blown away by what maemo is all about, never had one of the Tablets featuring Maemo so this is all new to me.

Looking forward to receiving my Nokia N900 at the end of the month, for those of you in the Uk who want a cheap sim free N900 check out the N900 UK Networks thread, I have added a post on how to get the N900 for £310.61

A Swedish guy here, who'd heard a bit about the previous tablets but didn't care much until the N900 came up. It'll be my first smartphone.

Hello!

registered today. Awaiting my preordered N900. Want to code a little again. Coded some bluetooth sailtracker in midp in 04/05, but was not satisfied with the performance. As much as I like java on a desktop I hate it on a phone. I started fiddling a little with qt.

Hope that it comes soon. Considering switching to android...

Re: New members say hello !
 
Just thought I'd say "hi" as a new member.

I've been a UIQ and S60 (currently using a Nokia e90 communicator) user for a number of years on my PDA/smart phones and am a big Linux user on my desktops but am new to the world of Nokia tablets.

The N900 looks to be a good combination of the above so I thought I'd take the plunge - although the relatively poor IMAP support and the lack of syncML over HTTP are going to cause me a big headache until I find a work around.

I'm from a development back ground although I don't get to do as much coding nowadays as I do more management of other devs. Hopefully the n900 and maemo community will give me a chance to do some useful coding in my spare time again though.

Hi.

A new face to this forum, though I've been lurking around for months already before registering. I decided to do it now, before the "N900 meet" in Helsinki, hoping that I could update something about the launch schedules as/when/if we hear anything about them on Wednesday eve.

Otherwise, I'm a "technology enthusiast", but a "bisness user" for the new N900.

Hola!

Decided to grab an account here at last, been lurking the place for a while.

I'm currently doing some game development for handheld devices, trying to piece up a SDL+OpenGL ES framework that I could easily simultaneously develop on both Maemo and iPhone (shhh).

Too bad I'm such a noob on linux and having a hard time figuring out how to add libraries such as SDL into scratchbox and get the thing running. Maybe some day.

Compiled and ran my maemo helloworld on the emulator, that's a start, right?

Cheers,

Believe me ... I'm one of the 300 luky guys that have a free N900 for 6 month. In my hands the N900 it's AMAZING !!

Hi everyone,
I'm from Poland. N900 will be my first device with maemo. I hope it will become my friend.

Hi there.

I'm a few days old now, but let me introduce myself anyway.

I'm from the UK, I'm a strong OSS advocate and coder in just about any language you can imagine. I've been hovering around the Mer project for a long while and recently decided to take the plunge and get my feet a bit wet in things, so here I am.

(My N900 is also preordered. :D)

Rushmore here in the great state of Kentucky, where 3G coverage from Tmo is about as good as a remote polar outpost :(

Heavy duty gamer, music and movie fan hoping that the N900 is the Holy Grail of an all-in-one. My G1 is great as a phone, but the lack of app memory on the platform and resource draining Java has made me look to the N900 and Maemo.

Sure hope they fix the portrait mode issue quickly, or at least provide a wrist lanyard kit ;)

Good morning, Rushmore, welcome to the forum. I have the same problem with T-Moble here in Southern California.

If I ever get back to Texas I will take you up on that offer! Because of the economy I stayed around home this year, no out of state road trips.

Hey everyone,

I'm already here for a couple of days posted some stuff registered to the garage and submitted some ideas to the sandbox.

the N900 will be my first internet tablet (I dare you to call it phone!) and my second nokia device. I have Debian stable on my desktop PC and testing on my laptop, router runs dd-wrt and some ded. servers out in nowhere run stable aswell.

I'm a helping hand on scripting and artwork if needed.

echo "hello world"

I invite you to Poland. We will drink some bottles of Polish vodka.

Hey Everyone,

I'm new to the community and work for a major audio equipment company here in the US. I'm a Web Developer and have never owned a Nokia device. I'm looking forward to leaving iPhone for a n900 as soon as they become available over here.

I'm also interested in getting my feet wet with software development on maemo. The community seems like a great place to get started.

Thanks,

Hello, I'm joppu, I live in Finland and I'm looking forward to get hands on my n900! I am interrested in graphics design, and I already have 3 different themes underway for Maemo 5. I also might get into developing some simplistic apps for the device,

Nice to meet you all!

Hi everyone,

Much like a number of others, the n900 brought me to this site. I thought I would see what this maemo thing was all about. And, if I decide to purchase said super phone, the community will be vital. So here I am.
