congratulation over the 900MHz!!!!.....

note that im comparing between 800mhz and 900mhz
1. music player doesnt lag that much while it starts to load. (747 songs)
2. music player is faster when clicking on artist,b4 this when i click on any artist name,the song album will not appear immediately,means the music player is lagging,but at 900mhz it appears str8 away
3. file manager loads faster-no significant lag anymore (15gb left)
4. whole device runs faster (obviously)
5. photos loads faster...b4 this when i click "photos",it will lag a while to load my images (4xx images) ,but now it doesnt lag anymore

thats all i noticed until now,try it urself to experience the faster n900

yeah tis is the one...but need to log in then only can see.. cos if my desktop pc java was disable, i will not able to log in. it will only show my java application was not available something like this.

may i know if open chinese website, will it display the chinese words properly? and if chinese mp3, will it display the song title's in chinese? and i read some users saying it will crash if install chinese input application, so mean atm no chinese input available for tis phone??

after 4 days of using 800mhz OC, i flashed back to 900mhz back.. feels faster than 800mhz for me

I'm a programmer too, but when we design or write app, we should make the app user friendly and able to cater for even the most dumb users, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, we should also provide advance features for smarter users, where we allow them to do MORE.

iPhone did it "right" more normal users, but NOT for intermediate to advanced users. As I said, it's like giving "GUEST" account to to users, they have no access to the more advanced functionalities.

You cousin loves the iPhone, but what does he do with it? Just enjoy the apps and games. That doesn't justify the smartphones concept. A smartphone is supposed to work like a phone with mini-computer, where the iPhone lacks of. Unless it is JB, then it's like gaining "Administrators" account and you can do things that are "WORLDS APART" with the non JB version.

I did not say iPhone is only for novice users, but it's targeted for novice users and they omit or did not provide the advance features/options. It doesn't mean advance users cannot use it. A game can be build/develop for kids, but that doesn't mean adult cannot play it. Similarly, iPhone is build targeted for novice users, it doesn't mean Profesionals can't use it.
That's where iPhone shines, because they polished the part very well, it fits novice users very well, Pros can use it, but they will find many things "missing" and not available as an option, unless they JB it.

What I'm trying to say is, they did a good job with the stability of the device, but limiting the features is a NONO to a smartphone.

There's no right or wrong, I find the iPhone when launch is very advanced because back then, most popular devices are still non-touch screen model, and those with touch-screen have nothing special, but iPhone make the big scene to the market. I'm not talking about hardware specs, it's too obvious that the hardwares specs are not good, even with 3GS. But is their concept and what they do. It makes every smartphone manufacturer go back to their design board and start to come up with something new more competitive, and to price it competitively.
Look at Nokia 5800, I was totally shocked to find out it's launching price, I thought it would easily cost over RM2K. And there're so many smartphones pricing very competitively, now they're ditching Symbian ^2 and going for Symbian ^3. Ever since iPhone launched, the smartphone market is like going through a big change. That's what I see.

What UI ideas do you mean they steal from iPhone? I don't find the UI from iPhone interesting. The interesting part is the animation, slick and smooth transitions. They have made this part very well.

I don't know, but from past experience, Nokia support for its software have always been good. I can still find updates for my old Nokia phones. I personally believe, they will at least update the OS up to a certain standard and stability before they slow down the updates. But what I prefer is for them to release the updates more often than wait for long time before releasing one major update. The PR1.2 was known since late February, there's even videos on YouTube.

Anyway, if you know about Qt4.6, future apps/games develop with Qt4.6 and above will be supported for Symbian, Maemo, MeeGo 1st Instance (Harmattan - still deb packaging; basically a re-brand of Maemo6), MeeGo (rpm packaging), Windows Mobile, etc.
It's like Java concept, write once, run anywhere.

I personally believe the only selling point of the iPhone is that its COOL to have..

comparing the iPhone to the N900 is like comparing.... Megan Fox to.. uhh.. well.. your wife..

The iPhone, much like Megan Fox.. is nice to see.. nice to hold.. (nice to bang lol).. anyways.. yeah its all these visual aesthetic features that sells the iPhone.. but like Megan Fox.. who probably cant cook and doesnt know what a broom is.. the iPhone lacks the more advance features... which.. a wife would have..

the N900.. which you are married to... may not look as good as Megan Fox.. and is certainly ALOT fatter.. however your wife... lets you explore her all around inside out.. .she can cook.. clean.. sweep... she has all the advance features which the iPhone lacks...

So yea... while anyone with a million bucks can get a Megan Fox... only the lucky ones know the benefits of having a wife..


I have had the N900 for about 3 months now.. and I love my wife...

Like your post...wish this is facebook..haha

The best ever analogy.
Better put this in the front page.

I love my "wife" too

megan fox can't cook.... nice one dude..

I have a sudden urge to oc my phone from 800MHz to 900MHz..

omg. 3 days after oc to 800. here comes ppl who "seduce" me with 900. omg. LOL.

btw, how if my wife looks like jessica alba

This is the nicest post I found so far!!!!!!!

Anyway OC N900 didn't reduce phone lifespan?

huahua... actually i started OC to 900mhz.. then tried 800mhz for about 4 days.. i guess there's some noticeable difference between 800 & 900 for me.. so i OC back up to 900mhz.. all is good now . N900 running at 900mhz <--- shud be like dat rite? next wanna try the LV kernel from Titan.. wanna try if it's ok or not

Wahaha... i love this one, i have waiting official announce from nokia since 28 August 2009 and now it at my hand now .

Congratulations i waited this phone since it was announce and was so disappointed when i heard its not coming to Asia first. But look down its finally here. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Added on April 11, 2010, 7:27 pmCurrently i am kind of happy at 800mhz if i start to feel laggy ill try 900mhz too. Does the battery overheat fast when u r running video continously?

should be unless u have a proper cooling (like pc also perhaps) ..

Its so new so its very hard to know what's the life span until several phones fail due to OC.

agreed, btw how long the battery will tahan if oc?

a cozen of mine want to buy this hp mayb within this week ...
