Its a bit harsh to give this guy abuse for commenting on how he's feeling.
Sure he's getting rid of the phone we like with the replacement being the equivalent of Hitlers SS but thats not a reason to abuse him.
After looking at the iPhone4 its not for me and the iPhone never has been, but theres a reason its destroying everything else and that is purely down to simplicity, I can't knock a product that offers that.

However, do be aware what your getting when you by the iPhone4:
- iAds
- VideoCall only supports WiFi
- Products hardware is fairly mediocre
- Apple are against you doing what you want with their product

Either way, good luck fella

It's perfectly fine that people voice their opinions about the equipment they paid hard earned money for. If you prefer the iphone 4 then good luck to you. Though personally I feel the thread should be in the competitors section, or maybe comblned with others into a leaving thread.

Who I would ban are the people who hide behind tags, if you're not man enough to write it under your name then writing "op is a douche" in a tag says everything about you and not the op.

Moderation here is just facepalm all the way. After reading really informative and good forums like hydrogenaudio and Doom9 where discussion is quite moderated this place looks terrible. Itīs just unbearable amount of noise coming every direction to every discussion. I would not be amazed if so called productive users or people who are able to have good discussion hide in developers mail list and irc. This place is just sometimes horror-show of human stupidity.

this place used to be a constructive and interesting environment for me. However, the influx of clueless endusers "masses" has negatively affected the mood and content of this place. Time for a strict policy and heavy moderation.

Isn't it ironic that the major features of iOS4 are:
- multitasking
- video calling

What is just what I can do for months on my N900...

I love the inclusion of the gyroscope, it will add to gaming a great deal, and apple has the presence to see the feature used.

I am disappointed that the screen is still so small, that high-res will be great for media, but unusable for productivity apps because it is so small:

Apple products "just work" (apart from the early ipad wifi failure)
Nokia has video calling *great* - My wife (who is not an apple fan) asked me for my opinion on the iPhone 4 (I am an Apple hater). My response. Well it is good. I would buy it right away for USD 400 (without having to get a contract). The thing that I am sure the video calling will "just work"

I told her I have video calling on my N900 too. But my guess is that it will NOT "just work" I opened her XP machine - checked that she has the latest version of skype. Called her from the N900 with video. It rang - she answered with video - nada - nothing - only audio. The reverse - she called me with video from her xp machine my computer was ringing - not my N900. Went to logg of skype from my computer - then she called me again with video transferred to voicemail. Rebooted my N900 - nothing nada - no video call no audio call. Once I tried the gtalk video call and the image quality was substandard to say the least

I am pretty sure we would have been able to get it going. but it does not "just work".

This is typical Nokia. I had the N95-8GB which I loved to bits and pieces. But the video in high res would not record properly because the mass storage was too slow (WTF!?!)

It took me almost half a day to get the map loader working

When I got my N900 one of the things I was really looking forward to was the UPNP and TV out. It took Nokia 6 months to make it work.

I love my N900* - My next phone will probably be another Nokia - perhaps the N8 or the next Meego or both - but I can understand why people buy Apple products

*The things I love:
* SIP calling
* plays almost all videos
* TV out
* now mostly works with UPNP
* full skype integration (perhaps in 6 months video will "just work")
* cool programms that go deep in to the heart of the device

Mine is completely dead. USB port not working so can't charge it. Sent it in for repairs and they claim it has moisture damage. Sounds like an excuse not to fix it. Never had mositure damage on any other device and there have been many reports of faulty usb ports. $625 thrown down the drain. Don't think I will be getting another Nokia device ever unless the meego device is the most amazing thing ever (and even then I doubt I will be getting it).

77h, try to disable and enable skype account in n900 and after enabling it check that you have "display video calling option" enabled in contacts settings(from top menubar)
