I am planning to by N900 but I dont trust nokia,

we have developed a aplication for n97, so we tested it a lot, its hardware was good, but the software looks like a unfinished os, and it will never finished becouse n97 will stay at most one year in market,

so i think n900 have a unfinished os to,
there must be a lot of developments on it,
so if nokia give n900 at least 2-3 years, yes n900 would win the match,
dont forget, iphone os had a lot of problems first, it had copy paste capability 2-3 years later, this is the must important difference of iphone, its stays in market more than 3 year, and you can install same software for all iphone,

so conclusion,
what is nokia plan,
if they are planning n920 or another new model with in 2-3 year, iPhone would be the only king of the market,
but if nokia is planning to sell n900 at least 2-3 years in markets, and the give all importance to developt its software yes there will be a new king,

what you think ,
what would nokia ,
with a year there will be a new model,
if a new model, n900 and nokia will lose the match
iphone is the only phone in my life that i bought 2 year ago, and its still in the market

sory about my english

Your post doesnt make alot of sense. Firstly, The N97 is running Symbian, while the N900 is running Maemo. The big difference is that Maemo is open source. Its not comparable to Symbian.

Secondly, the iPhone that was released 3 years ago is not the same iPhone thats being sold today. Remember that we first got the iPhone, then the iPhone 3G, then the iPhone 3GS. They are technically three different devices, so saying that the original iPhone is "still on the market" is wrong.

Finally, the N900 doesnt compete with the N900 as they are geared towards two completely different type of users. So if you are after an iPhone competitor, I dont think the N900 will be for you. I believe Maemo is what will keep the N900 alive for quite some time to come.

Qt is the "one ring". By early next year it will enable extended lives of all Nokia communications products.

And no, iPhone is not the king of any market... Its geared towards design oriented teenagers and people who want a stylish, yet very easy to use, simple phone. Its good at what it does, but its not the same kind of device as say the N900, HTC Touch Pro's, etc..

Its not just one market..

if you ask someone, what was the biggest event in the phone market,95% will say iPhone, so it is the king i think. I used HTC Diamond, it was to slow, but iphone is fast and its exchange aplication is very good,so email is important. But for me example its screen is small, in web, ebooks its problem, and videos is an another problem for iphone. İts time for a new king iPhone brought its OS a good level with years, i have iPhone 3g, and it still in the market. And when a new software for iPhone 3gs, i can download and use it. This is important i think. My idea is if nokia gives 2-3 years n900, it will have a very good OS, but it will need time.

I give N97 example, i know its sybian, but its a device, good device, but conclusion its os isnt optimized for the phone, my think nokia doesnt give enough importance to software, good software needs time,

A developer that doesnt understand the difference between development platform and a device?

Now I understand why you app looks "unfinished"...

But the conclusion still stands, the N900 and the iPhone doesnt compete in the same market. if you think the iPhone is the best phone in the world, then thats great for you, but that also probably means you're not going to enjoy the N900 for what it is.

For me, the iPhone is the worst phone I could get. It cant multi-task (without jailbreaking it and getting a panic attack each time Apple rolls out an update) which means I cant run any IM apps, and SSH'ing my servers would be a nightmare.

SERIOUSLY, stop comparing a mobile computer to the iPhone, its pathetic and useless waste of this forum's database. :/

So, enjoy your iPhone, you should probably stick to it, considering you think of it as the "king". Just dont come here and tell me that 95% of all mobile phone users out there share your love..

Becouse of language problem i couldnt explain,
nokia send us a n97 for developing widget aplication, our aplication was giving a lot of errors, but in nokia 5800 no error, they have same OS, same, but in 5800 no problem, in n97 abnormal error. We see a lot of problems in n97 os, we think its software needs a lot of adjustments. You can look forum nokia about problems.
