anyone here using digi 3g package on n97 mini before, i just signed up the 3g package, whenever i connect my n97 mini to the internet, the upper left corner displays letter 'E', and the connection speed is rather slow, even KL area. and i use digi internet as my access point, is it phone configuration problem, or the network operator problem, pls help!

DiGi have a very limited 3G coverage.But they have great 2.5G(EDGE) coverage.
In case you're outside of 3G coverage area,your connection will be automatically be downgraded to 2.5G(EDGE) hence the symbol E in your phone.
It's not a major problem because EDGE's speed is quite ok.Around 25kbps.

Use mobile version or turn off loading images in Opera.

For N900's users we can install W3M browse the sites with text only.Good when out of 3G/2.5G area.
Don't know id the same thing can be done for N97.

i7??lol...ARM and Snapdragon hold the mobile phone processor market so strong...intel hard la.

There is a catch in Intel's plan on entering the mobile plan market.
One of the their R&D Engineer claimed that their mobile processor will have around 7 days of standby time as opposed of ARM's 3 days(usually)
I don't know about you guys but if Intel did managed to make a processor with this kind of low power consumption I'll go for it even if the OS is little crappy.

Another advantage of Intel mobile processor is the ability to run x86 application.It should be possible to run desktop class application directly in the mobile phone depending on the OS.
MeeGo 1.2(Handset version) should be supporting x86 execution.

This is why MeeGo have two testing device;N900 & Aava Mobile
N900 is the testing device for ARM based device & it should be released 1st.
Aava mobile is the testing device for the Intel Moorestown based device.No idea on Intel processor powered MeeGo device.The guys at MeeGo IRC channel are very tight lipped on this.

Frankly speaking Snapdragon is overated.Just wait till TI's Cortex A9 used widely.

ARM Cortex-A15 is even awesome thumbup.gif

Far from ready for end user devices.Plus it'll be too expensive.

But power users wants full blown desktop class OS like Maemo.We do need faster processor in future.
Unconfirmed report stated that N9 will have Cortex A9 processor hmm.gif

alright. There's no way any of the current Symbian^1 Devices by Nokia get Symbian^3 due to hardware limitation. The hardware in Nokia Symbian^1 devices are too weak in hardware. And haven't you realise even the newer phone with resistive screen comes with Symbian^1. So maybe, all resistive will stick back to Symbian^1.
There's one more point too. Nokia stated there's no more N Series devices with Symbian OS already.
With all that factors, I would call a 0% for N97 Mini to get Symbian^3. notworthy.gif

Simplest reason why N97 will never get Symbian^3 - Lack of decent graphics

Symbian^ needs a good graphic chip to accelerate the whole graphic process.It also helps reducing the CPU load.
Lack of the decent graphic chip is the hardware limitation of N97 from getting Symbian3.
