Does the N900 have a decent GPS? I have yet jumped into the seas of smartphones and still have been trying to avoid the IPHONE because 'I'm a PC". Although, I have to admit .. the iphone is pretty badass just from playing around with it a few times.
Okay, back to my point. I want to get a N900 because I have a T-mobile plan. But I also want a good phone + gps + web access.
1. GPS question
I currently have a semi smartphone - nokia 5230 and it is a tease. What I need the smartphone the most is for finding places. I'm always lost when finding places or late to certain events. I know the Iphone is great at these type of situations and was wondering how the N900 is. I seriously hate the Ovi Maps for my nokia 5230 and hope it improves.
As for the n900 i hear it is the same. I just really want a gps that shows me where i am... then type in where i want to go from here. is that really that hard to ask???
2. Resistive screen
I know the n900 is a mobile computer first, then laptop. im no rocket scientist but i know how to use a pc. I just really want a good reason to buy the n900. the 5230 that i have right now uses resistive screen also, and there are times that i hate it because it is not always responsive.
3. Copy and Paste
How efficient and accurate is the copy and paste tool. i feel like i use this a lot on a pc but feel that it is fairly difficult on the n900 based on reviews. say that i find the address of a restaurant, and i want to copy and paste it to mapquest or google maps so that i can get directions.. is it difficult to accomplish this task???
