Time to re-sell my N95.
 
Last time I put my N95 on craigslist, after I heard N900 will be release sept 27, I got an offer of $250 for it but was refused to let it got because, yeah, the date of the N900 release date kept on changing and of course, I don't want to be without phone :eek: Now that a fresh date has been set, I will be putting it again on the market. Hope I get a decent offer this time as previous time. Sweet.

I did it myself a month ago, and am device free at this time. I want to be craving the N900 ALOT, since I only use mobiles for my computing needs 90% of the time. It hurts, but the N900 will soothe all wounds.

You guys are brave. My N95 NAM sits on the side as a backup device. I like it too much to give or sell, and it was a prize from the MWS Competition last year. Such solid devices are hard to part with. Of course, if I were waiting for the N900 personally, I might have a different tune ;)

Hmm haven't even thought about selling it. I still have my n5110, n5140i and now the n95... I'll probably keep them around. One never knows when one needs a low-feature device for stealing/loosing purposes :)

I have to have two phones: one for me, and one to carry my work sim card. (The NHS kindly issue those bottom-of-the-range nokia candybars). My n95 (AKA Godot, because of the problems with the release date being set back... ) holds the NHS card. And there's no way I shall part with him till he's ready for a decent burial.

I shall, however, ditch the c905 asap!

I abuse my phones so usually there's not much left to sell. I still have my trusty N-Gage for playing ik+ on frodo :) I'm sure I'll find some nice use for my N95 too.

Re: Time to re-sell my N95.
 
I still have devices, just don't use them. I have N90s, N78s, etc., but I don't want to touch another phone until I have the N900 in hand. This is the biggest thing for me since the N95 was released, and I almost peed my pants the day I got that puppy. I got it as a gift after stupidly trading my N73 for an N80, and it was the best experience I've had other than my original N90, which I consider Nokia's best made device ever. Threw it out of my car going 65 mph down the highway embankment, went back, and the sucker was ringing! It was a tank.

"Now that a fresh date has been set..." What is that fresh date?

I approve of that.

I'm actually hoping that my N900 will prove so useful, and be so heavily used, that it will be worn out by the time the RX-71 is released.

If it isn't worn out, it won't have been as good a convergence device as I'm expecting it to be.

Regards,
Roger

I usually wind up buying two, one to keep, one to pass on. I've come to notice the outsides get banged up, but Nokia guts last pretty long. Just replace the exterior housing and pass it on or sell it.

Alright, I'm going to cancel my pre-order of the N900 so you can pass your second one to me.;)

I'm not even paying for this N900, a first for me, since I'm unemployed at the moment. A member of the Maemo/Symbian community has bought one for me. God bless him. What you could do is change your preorder delivery address to mine so I can have my usual two devices. That'd be greatly appreciated and earn you at least 30 cool points. :)
