Really?
Because I do that everyday and it performs great, even with more apps open.

Maybe your device is defective, or you are responsible for it being "defective".

I have windows 7 and mass storage works perfectly for me

Interesting, i'm using W7 64 pro, and it seems it fails to install the driver?

Will try again and report my findings. (Y).

Edit: Your right, interesting, prehaps its working after the firmware update. :S

Thanks for that, i'd lost faith in mass storage mode lol.

What driver? Since when does mass storage require a driver?

Since it's over USB: http://www.google.com/search?q=usb+%...rlz=1I7GFRC_en

Well since this seems to be the /rant thread here. For some reason my device as become extremelly slow... I've reflashed several times today to no avail, it is laggy as hell, and I can't even turn the damn thing on when it's plugged to the charger... WTF is that?! I can't wait for NITDroid to be 100% complete, at least that will give me an alternative to the annoyance that maemo is slowly becoming to me.

Since N900 is being Compared to so called Iphone.

Disadvantages of iphone 4
• No Flash support in the web browser
• No true multitasking for all applications
• No quick switches for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or 3G on the homescreen
• No social networking integration in the contact list
• No lockscreen or homescreen info widgets or plugins
• No new ringtones or SMS tones
• SMS,,email, and calendar tones are still not customizable
• No proper file browser or access to the file system
• No USB mass storage mode
• Screen has no vibrating haptic feedback
• No Bluetooth file transfers to other mobile phones
• Contacts lack a swipe-to-delete or mass delete feature
• No SMS/MMS delivery notifications
• No smart dialing
• No DivX or XviD video support and no official third-party application to play that
• The whole iPhone is too iTunes dependent and you’re also limited to syncing particular types of content only with ONE computer..
• Signal bars drop – and rather fast too – when your palm and fingers fold around the bottom left side of the handset. Contact with skin most certainly interferes with the antenna and the phone is effectively losing signal and call gets dropped.
• Video Call works only on Wi-Fi


And i Think many of these features are already there in N900 which was released much before.

Many of those features were available on my n73, looong time ago

I don't know iPhone4 lacks that many things. Thanks for the list.

Man, why'd someone have to dig this thread up from the depths.
