Re: Android ph0wns Nokia N900!

Why do they have a JAVA app instead of say PHP app? I honestly don't understand why people write apps rather than websites. Maybe for 3D gaming, you need a native app. For everything else, especially...

I haven't kept track with N900 for the last while. So what's the big deal about this? I remember when N900 first came out, people were comparing its browser speed to Nexus One and Iphone 3gs. The...

Re: N900 vs. Motorola Droid (Verizon Android device)

Gmail really isn't all that good. It's necessary, however, simply because you need an account to access the rest of the google cloud. I would imagine Amazon's cloud system could be a massive threat...

Re: N900 vs. Motorola Droid (Verizon Android device)

The new Google navigator is definitely a differentiate app. Real time traffic + google street view, simply sweet. More importantly, it can not be emulated by another company any time soon. If Apple...

Re: A Message To Nokia, Peter, & Maemo Staff

To be honest, I can never understand why people pre-order any electronic products (wii probably being the only exception). I mean it's not like it's a limited edition collectibles or something. No...

Re: Bad news: This review will make you want the N900 more

It's not "that important", but it's still useful.

GPS is not all that important if you got a good map with some planning done, it's merely useful at times.

BTW, N900 doesn't even have Garmin...

Re: Bad news: This review will make you want the N900 more

So let me correct my original assessment. The last time I checked, a GPS would not work more than "2 to 3 meters from a window" whereas a magnetometer would probably work fine in a fallout shelter....

Re: Bad news: This review will make you want the N900 more

Your GPS is much better than the one used by the US government then since they still haven't figure out how to position their soldiers in urban warfare very accurately using GPS. :)

Re: Bad news: This review will make you want the N900 more

The last time I checked GPS does not work in doors. And if my N95 is any reference, it takes about 5-10 minutes to get any sort of GPS signal anyway.

Re: N900 shipping delayed

Unfortunately, delays usually mean a much more buggy system. Nobody likes delays, it impacts revenue, sales people lose commissions and partners get grumpy. Therefore, corner cutting is always...

Re: Another Iphone fanatic with N900 review

It seems a lot of people are angered by the 6/10 score and the comments left on his blog wasn't helpful. The score is a bit tough, but the review was pretty balanced. He said plenty good things about...
