I use Skype to make calls to other Skype users and land lines. I know Skype to Skype is supported in the contacts view and it looks very easy to launch, but is there a "button" to call a land line through Skype as opposed to cellular?

Got a UI question. When in application running view where you can see all running apps is it possible to close apps from there or do you have to enter each running app and close it?

Hands on review
Comparison Photos: N900 vs N800 vs N82 vs N95 vs N97
Though there is one thing i have to critizise
you write "Note the compass which isn’t listed in the official specs" while referring to a screenshot of ovi maps.
Are you sure it's a real compass? what made you write this? because to me it looks like the north-indicator of ovi maps, and not an actual compass functionality...
also, you should probably proofread the article again, i think there are a few times when you write "n97" but actually meant n900, and a few typos as well ("converned" f.ex.)

If only Nokia learns from Microsoft.. we would all have our N900 in our hands today:
http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/15/z...-and-hands-on/
Microsoft decided to hold on loading up any usable software until the new Zunes were out to market. What that means is that we have yet to do any serious testing with the new device -- despite having the gem sitting right here.
....
these devices are being sold to end users in the same condition our unit is in -- namely, without any real functioning software. It's a pretty unusual move for a company like Microsoft to put devices into the hands of consumers with no functionality at all, but it seems the Zune team was cranking till the last minute. Let's hope all the hard work pays off!
