@mike

When people here say support what they mean is that they want updates, more features. Bug fixes are important yes but minor in the grand scheme of things. You're trying to be technical but you know that's what people want and YOU know that's what people are talking about when they say support.

The n900 could've been better, would've been better if it had TRUE support as apple does with it's phones. The hardware of n900 was before it's time. I don't think anyone had a processor like that for instance. It was largely abandoned in the grand scheme of things.

Eventually of course support can only last so long, which is why the first apple iphone cannot get the apple updates (limited by hardware)
n900 did not have this hardware limitation

NOONE WANTS the n9 to fail. MOST EXPECT it to fail due to nokia's bad decision making and track record. It won't if Nokia is determined to not make it fail...which as you can see is not happening, because of Elop.

What? so you are not a kid?

might be that english isn't his first language. Have that ever hit your brain? Or are your brain working overtime to come up with the line of ****?

Go and pre-order n9 insead and save me some time please.

abill_uk feels nice when people agree with you dont it?

Especially when you cant give a good response yourself and instead continue trolling.

I'm sorry mate, but you srsly must learn to pay attention much more.
I actually don't mind Dan/Gerbick's input, even if it's constantly very negative.
Because they deliver it with some reason/knowledge, &or wit.

And you keep accusing people of being childish, & "stirring the pot".
When that's all you ever seem to do...
I don't think I've seen you make one post, that's actually interesting/informative.

The stuff you've posted in the past 48hrs has had zilch informative value, & merely highlights how uninformed you are.
At least when Gerbick/Dan try to make an argument, they back-it-up with some logic/rationale.
I'm sorry... but sometimes it's best to think, think, & think again, before posting.



Since when does Nokia have anything to do with when retailers/carriers release the N9?
Except for how soon the 1st country/retailers/carriers release it.
It'll vary immensely from region to region, & country to country, Nokia has little impact on that.

Given all the anecdotal evidence, & using basic reasoning/powers-of-deduction.
The best "guesstimates" so far...
Are that it may be as soon as late August for some countries, & the very end of Sept for others.
And can you tell me of anybody that has official information ?.

This whole thread is based on thoughts with nothing to back anything up but when someone comes in and stated the N900 IS being supported then you begin to wonder !.

Hence the reason i have been asking for official rather than hearsay or empty links.

Have you been like this your whole life?

try out the n9 before you start *****ing about it like you do. There is no official information. It's the same as all other brands. You always have to wait and see until its time for release.

Tad bit of contradiction here. N8x0 is now 3.5 years old. Qt not being supported on it will invariably happen to the N900; lack of interest.

N900 is almost 2 years old, lack of interest is already there. The folks with the N950 are largely gone, never to come back. This place, the council has all but stated this place will stop receiving funding sooner than later from Nokia.

And projects are shifting from the N900 to the N9. The Community editions tend to be the very last hurrah - that's if you consider the Hacker Editions the same as the Community Editions. Nothing came after them in terms of official support.

Support is basically over. Any updates to anything going forward is due to enthusiast support because they still use the device. And almost all of the N900 devs have N950's now.

Sad part, the 2 year old iPhone 3GS will get iOS 5. Officially.

The 20 month old N900 will not get official support. The community edition is supported by the community that's quickly going away. Sad.

Honestly i find this imo useless discussion every 7-8 page to just go circles.
We all know N9 isn't going to sell amount that matters to Nokia or to the industry. Nokia isn't fully committed to it, like it wasn't for N900.

I could give a sh1t about support if the device works and i got access to xterminal. I did not ever recommend N900 to anybody over at MR forums, but if you like what you see NOW and know where you are jumping in, go for it.

Totally agree with you. We have a few members keep pumping out the same questions and statments over and over again. That is why

And the worst thing about all of this is, Nokia will go down, it is just a matter of time.

Apple, SE have been in alot worse positions and they comeback pretty strong. But that is to hard for you to understand I guess. The were not market leaders, but even so, they were in alot more trouble than nokia is now. Nokia will be fine, just not with the same marketshare.
