n900 HK thread says sales will start on Sat, May 1.

I don't use it for browsing all the time because micro-b is quite good,

I don't think flash works in it, but thats buggy anyway, but it works fine and it's quite fast acutally - even faster than the N900 browser.

Released or not??? :-(

...certainly not they day Nokia gonna release a PR1.2 for the rest of us.
Especially not this weekend -Finland is partying (and not only the N900 HK release)

We might end up hearing an official Nokia statement: "If you want 1.2 you must buy the HK version" . Im sure they`ll think of many more ways to rip us off...again .

how come that for hk people the firmware is finished and for the rest of the world not? What is the diffrence?

Nokia is aligning themselves with HK due to the imminence of World War 3 and HK's superior phone operating skills

woah the thread is practically exploding, guess I'm not the only one who though today was going to be the day =/... but it still could be ... fingers crossed xD

don't think so, the 3000 marker isnt reached yet.

1. Any company orientation is getting new users.
2. Any company orientation is being ready for marketing events.

that is normal product management roadmap. You will later see that pr1.x (1.3 or whatever it is) would be created for the Brazil even or something like that.

Nokia aligns their releases with events to balance between stability/feature list to obtain new users. And they are sure you would not sell n900 back. the person who knew what the n900 is and bought it, will never switch to... (there is even nothing to switch to yet!)

so, given above priorities, why do you think they should focus on pr1.2 for entire world and not on HK1.2, Brazil1.3_MeeGo, later 'Cross' QT framework?
