We will see WP and Swipe phones coming.
Then if it's done without Qt, Nokia can kiss goodbye to even more power in the software sphere.
If true, MS's getting far more out of the deal LT....

And the opposite of FUD--the stuff of Apple faithful: blind faith in the face of facts and the evident. Nokia has sidled themselves with a losing horse, a provable loser so far.

Do you think 1080p would be feasible when using 802.11an + DLNA?
e.g. uncompressed high-profile MKV's w/"HD" audio. (basically BD rips)
I know in-theory (so long as one has a good WiFi set-up) the bandwidth should be there for 1x "HD" stream.
Just not sure exactly how DLNA comes into play, & how smooth/reliable it'd be in practice.

Isn't Nokia an international company?
They should tap their whole distribution network before they offer a different OS based phone, in my opinion.
Even when OQO was going out of business, they still found a brand new OQO 01+ to send to me upon not being able to fix it. And it came from Japan - sealed up.
Simply stated, not even 1 year - check the posts about alternate phones being offered - look at how they were offering that as early as 1 year after N900 delivery.
And it's becoming more widespread. That's not cool at all.
There's anecdotal evidence to prove they're sometimes being offered, instead of waiting.
And in come cases, sometimes being offered without asking!
But is there hard data to suggest that it really has been increasing since Sept 2010?
And even if it has, wouldn't one expect that to be the case, given the poor push/sales the N900 had?
And is such a practice truly unique to Nokia, or is it something that all vendors sometimes do?
I imagine many other major vendors have had to do this with certain lines/models.
Except with other vendors, users are usually offered the nextgen equivalent for free or some extra $.
In Nokia's situation it still didn't/doesn't have a nextgen equivalent, so the N8/E7 was/is the next best thing.
Anyway we're at the point now, where they're not really obligated any more.
The N900 was first launched in Sept 2009...
But I'd love to know the official RMA figures, & replacements stats since the launch!

See here (search for "USB")

Surely he only meant slave functionality?
i.e. N9 can act as a mass-storage device.
and for the record, I was the guy they all laughed at when i asked wether it had fmtx/rx and respective antennas or not, in the 2nd row...
Read this thread starting from here...

I can't recall what their findings about TX are, don't think they've focussed on it yet.
And it's prolly best waiting until more people can test w/a N9 anyway.
