Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

About AV jack... it should be possible to use component cable to transfer HD material but it would be complicated cable. i am 99% sure it wont end in standard hdmi. Maybe trough USB, but that is a different story.

Just because it's not using hdmi-out is irrelevant....

If it's a composite signal, like the 3.5mm AV jack on the N900 and other devices, the best it will do it 480i (NTSC) or 576i (PAL).

Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

so, some swedish carrier is saying September.

but zap and koa were talking about nokia wanting a much shorter time between launch and availability; "weeks not months".

the phone itself seems smooth, unlike the buggy mess that was the N8.

when can we expect to have one of these in our hands?

I was told that it will be released in Germany in September as well...
If you're a dev and get approval you can expect to hold a N950 in your hands next week.

Any source about this? I thought the same, but on the premise that the N9 has the wl1271 chip, which is not confirmed (only mentioned on a leaked list of packages).

OK, confirmed my guess:

sorry, i never can remember the spellings of your names. :)

cheers for the info.

i suppose sept will still be better than the n900 debacle; i didn't get an n900 in my hands until the start of december, and i preordered as soon as it was possible to do so in the UK.

cheers for the info.

I'd be amazed if it's composite signal...
Why give it no ability to do 720p out, when it can capture in 720p?
Utterly dumb if you ask me....

Or it is AV-out via 3.5mm but they've implemented MHL for 720p out?
If there's no support at all for 720p out, that's soooo dumb.

If it's that bloody long away...
It better be a decent freakin price, & it better be a simultaneous worldwide release.
Not some strung-out thing, over the course of 9mths+, to every part of the world.
In Australia the n900 wasn't available officially for something like 6mth+ after the US/UK!

Thread closing soon or what? :confused:

Not that I know of. I agree it would be a nice feature.

Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

^ it is an option in some vbulletin forums, oh well.
Thread close mods?
