After fixing your youtube link I tried it for myself.

It lost two bars... and apparently boosted power because it regained full signal in seconds. Make the video again with longer footage.

Why do people get so irrate?

If you like Apple then buy Apple products.

If you like Nokia then buy Nokia. Done.

No need to b****

So if thats what Nokia is proud of this days i must say it is pathetic.

Its never about the mass of error effected devices but about the popularity of that certain device. If the iphone 3g and 3gs wouldnt have got crutial updates to fix some bugs, we would have read about it everywhere. however, nokia kept the n900 in this talk.maemo.org "cage" and we are like "survival" participents who actually have to take care of our own and no one will ever get their 1m$.
So since the n900 and the maemo platform in general sold around 100k products, we cant make the same "wave" that is bound to hit Finland's shores and hurt Nokia's Image. And thats what its all about - IMAGE.

In conclusion, i have to say that i have been faithful to Nokia, but following their behavior with the n900, this might be my last nokia ever.
So would it have been better if Nokia never released the n900 at all? I agree they don't have their act together and its total bs how they have treated the n900 but I'm glad that it got released.

So much potential completely wasted.

"they made a fair offer"

or they are obliged by law to refund if a product is not fit for purpose....

Reason why it's so out there is because Apple uses the media alot so of course news like this is big news too. It goes both ways.

To me the weirdest thing is how Apple reacts to something like this and openly makes the event about bashing other brands. Trying to make all this seem just like what the OP fell too, Apple vs all others.

Simply put there is a problem that is acknowledged by consumer reports in it's test and by others, but somehow when it's Apple we talk about everything else that got nothing to do with the problem. Admit it, fix it and move on.

It is easy to tell people "if you don't like it return it for a full refund" when most of their customers are "stuck" with apple because of all the money wasted in the app store.

I have workmates that would have changed to the N900 a few months ago, but never did because they have 100's of dollars invested in apps and games.

So if you bought an iPhone4 and you are not happy with it, what are you going to do? Go back to the 3Gs? Or just get an iPod touch so you can still use all the apps you invested on?
Either way most Apple customers are stuck.

You say it like its a bad thing. Updates are free better than having to buy a new version of a product.

Anyway, trolling on Maemo.org will yield no results for anyone, so please move on.

come 12 months i guarantee most of you would be holding (no pun intended) n900 as a fantastic device. true that might be because we will have to go through meego's maturity (slow too i would guess) but n900/maemo 5 will be missed.


as for the OP. steve loves attention thats why he talked to his slaves. even then after weeks of ignoring the problem.

True or not its a shame so many people had to suffer and ended up selling it over this year (not to mention a bitter Nokia aftertaste as well).

Largely because Nokia couldn't be bothered to spend any decent money on its development and progression.
