I don't know why would anyone take off the back cover several times a day, but that's besides the point.

Yes I lost that point until people start posting that they managed to break those flaps. This desing on the N900 is almost as bad as the one on the Razr V3.

Re: N900 vs Iphone.
 
the ui, is what its all about- iphone created a phone with functions that the n95 had- but made them all usable(i had the n95 and although it browsed it had email gps etc. it was to fiddliy and slow.. it was like trying to run crysis on a netbook

and dont forget the multitouch either..

yep your right creative and i think even archos were b4 apple in the portable hard drive player stakes, but apple make things so well and usable.. if it wasnt for apple we wouldnt have probally had android or maemo on mobiles

To be exact: everyone is suing everyone else in the telecom sector. Nokia (having the wells dried up in the recession) is the hungriest for blood in the bunch.

I think you knew the answer, you were just being an optimist.
Actually, I read somewhere that this could go either way - that these days the frequency bands are not exclusively hardware anymore. That's why I posted the question here. But, yeah - I must admit; some wishful thinking was involved :)

Have you looked at the world market? Nokia isn't a big player in the USA and to be honest I am not sure that they ever intend or will be.

Yeah yeah, he gave '2 of 10' to Maemo, '9 of 10' to iPhone OS. So in my book, it means "I'm completely idiot, who doesnt have any idea about neither Maemo, nor GNU/Linux. Give me a simple user interface, its enough." Sorry, I'm honest about it.

Sounds to me as though the guy didn't like anything that wasn't the same as the iPhone, despite the other devices that have been around for years. He also seems to have missed the point that the development repositories are there with a caviate too. Shame as some of the stuff seemed considered.

this reviewer obviously has no idea about certain things:

I don't think many software development houses will invest time and money developing novel software products for this device, when the open-source community will try to reverse engineer and redistribute your intellectual property for free
that hurts, it really does.
i don't have a problem with him saying the device is for enthusiasts, but to throw the OSS community in one big pile with warez criminals, is just NOT ok.

I wish this guy could address real issues with the n900, and not give it such a poor review only out of his lack of knowledge and/or patience.

A few parts of his blog touched sensitive spots with the n900, but most of his posts just expressed his frustration.

This is specially useful for location aware applications. Ovi maps also includes local weather and the weather is updated using the gps location to show the current weather in your current location.
.
false. Maps are not pre-loaded and you do need an active connection to use the gps for routing. Once the maps are downloaded, they stay in the cache.

As far as i know this is the only advantage of the iphone compared to the n900 and of course the other being the app store. But both of these can be expected in the near future with more developers flocking to maemo due to its open nature.
LOL havnt seen to much of this lately.

Reviewing the N8 now would probably land you in the same place as Eldar is looking at now. And the next gen Nokia with MeeGo has yet to come or even be announced.

Hard to review items that aren't released yet.

Why did you bump a 2year old thread?

Re: N900 vs Iphone.
 
Maybe because n900 has smacked the last few iPhone generations into submission ;) and he wanted to know if ip5 could finally bring it to the legend that is ‘the N900’ ;))
