Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

Great, you've just described your laptop... What is the tablet doing there in your luggage? (also pls tell us if you really rely on third party app support what OS is there, just for kicks, or is it wined)
Nothing personal man, but if I carried a laptop everywhere I go, I'd take the 3310 in case of nuclear blast.

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

Actually... I described my tablet. My XOOM has all of that for the most part. Flash 11.x, a way to code/test out AS3 apps, Adobe AIR... but not more RAM (1gb) but quite a few more apps that help me in my daily operation(s)... and a seriously good browser (I've had better) and I'm good there.

And I can also publish from Unity3D to Android as well. Can't do that to Maemo.

But to go back over how "ridiculous" (implicit) it is to carry a laptop, I have to host and share website builds, MySQL and run versions on a screen that can be shared at 720p on our 50" LCD screen in our presentation room.

I do business. I need a phone that will facilitate that. I use a laptop to accomplish things in my business. I have a tablet that I tinker with - and if need be, display my prototypes (as above) via HDMI to that aforementioned LCD screen and if need be, can view other sites with Flash when they (the client) have other links they want to share.

I use a phone. I need a laptop. I entertain a tablet. I'm not talking about just using it to be using it - which, I do that too. I read comic books on my tablet too (way addicted from childhood to comic books)

Wow didn't expect grammar nazi jab, I sincerely apologize english is not my native language (just hope you b*tches will have same experience once chinese replaces your glorious moment, nah, jk couldn't care less)
Still missing your description on creativity of tablet, except as another gadget to haul. Sounds bit dickish. N900 for me almost replaces desktop, but sure hasn't all the kill-features

P.S:. Love your sense of humour and would hate to personally jab you, just for me sincerely N900 fulfills most needs. Maybe try gcc 4.6 on device? One-two less garbage to carry around

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

gai si de...

naw... no grammar nazi going on man. I couldn't do that if I wanted to - I'm way too often on the wrong side of the grammar rules to correct anybody.

My tablet has almost replaced a laptop. Almost.

At my home, I default to my tablet. N900 didn't do that for me - note: I need 3G on AT&T, was screwed out of that. The N900 was great, but it just didn't get the job done.

Dude... feel free to jab. Heck, stick around, I usually end up making a fool of myself.

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

Glad it wasn't the case, you have no 3G on N900??? Got 3.5 in backwards country, maybe we're talking about different subjects here, but if your laptop/tablet give you faster net... move to europe (or abandon at&t whichever suits you)

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

That's the problem with the US. The so-called "competition" has landed AT&T and other networks to operate on non-standard frequencies. Simply stated, we get screwed if a phone comes and supports only the standards.

I didn't switch to T-Mobile in the US, mainly because they have next to zero presence and coverage in my area.

Sad part, and I just thought of this... ever since I had an Android phone or my N9, I didn't pay for a tethered data account. Now... while on Windows Phone 7, I will have to pay for it.

Damn.

I was using my 3G access to get my tablet and my laptop on the internet for "the cheap". Crap. Didn't think of the fact I was doing it because I "owned" the phones (root on Android or minor tweak to start wi-fi hotspot in the US on MeeGo)

Anyway, competition in the US is different than anywhere in the world where competition is allowed. It's... really screwed up and the consumers are the loser.

Crap. Cannot believe that I didn't think on how I've been tethering for the last couple of years without paying for it. ****.

Bit out of topic, but... wtf. You are the pushers for free market for capitalism. Skip your pushing 'democracy' in Iraq and taliban countries... no wonder lumiaman sees taliban whenever someone tells him the truth (aside from torturing(waterboarding), internet censorship(SOPA/PIPA/CISPA), having used the A bomb against a civilian object... just my anti-US side speaking pls ignore it, it will degrade/diminish soon)

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

The zune never quite made it in Europe let alone greece so I haven't used or seen it much it completely slipped my mind but I agree with you


Nokia transport is an application not a change in the source code. Are you suggesting that Nokias advantage over other WP manufacturers is creating apps???

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

No, but creating a killer app with proper background (remember Nokia's position in geo) is an interesting development. Will Nokia write drivers/kernel parts only? They got paid quite a lot with no soft of their own which makes me believe 1.3b is more like -0.3 and still some 10b to shed. But naysayers will say nay and their month-to-month predictions of Nokia going bankrupt have so far been fruitless. Give it a month. How about 50 months?

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!
 

come on, you know how reality is, close bugtracker, etc etc, app developer have no interest anymore, thats true, but i can live with that, same like my n900, it just refuse to die, :)
