so if got n9 i wan touch touch XD

Hopefully this Friday can try.

>.<

Any chance they'll invite me?
Got bunch of things I want to test in MeeGo Harmattan

follow me?lol.
approximately end of september.

Sneak me in?

I'm wondering how many people can sneak in together.

come la.maybe can bring 1 partner.

Sifu heng,faster go win n9.

I tried whole day also WRONG!
haih, no luck. Nokia hates me.

i not even try.will get it free eventually.

I doubt that we'll get it free. We'll see afterwards, but surely, this is hard

Anyway, its such a pity today that we haven't got the chance to play with N9 yesterday.

Thats to be said, Nokia's commitment towards N9 really showed there!

stay optimistic.

I'm terribly disappointed that I came sooo far from JB to KL, arrived in KL around 6pm, lost about 3 hours in KL, and im 2 hours + late and finally got to know that there isn't N9 to HANDS-ON

only a discussions about the N9.

My suggestion to Nokia, just follow the hardware trend la, now everything dual core quad core. Focus on the smoothness of MeeGo, swipe2, multitasking, browsing, social networking. And don't abandon MeeGo for god sake . N9 got highest daily hit so far in GSMArena, it got the world attentions. Means people are anticipating the phone and the OS.

nokia wont read this.u should speak it out yesterday.email thomas..

I doubt this will happen.There's a blockhead working as Nokia's CEO & he's making decision like retard.
Nokia already outsourced/sell their major softwares.Also number of important employees (from MeeGo team) already left or wants leave.
Without these it'll be impossible to go back to MeeGo as primary OS.

Anyway can anyone give full details of the event yesterday?

Hope so!

Well, to their defence, N9 hands on really wasn't there in the tentative originally. Its quite surprising for me, seeing them trying to cater our N9 curiousity.

That to be said, yah, its a pity we didn't have a hands on. Or even eyes on moment

You should email that to Prakash at the very least. They're dying for our ideas

Saddening but true. Its hard to go back to Meego after this. Especially when lots of the employees responsible for it being booted out from the company. Haih.

Nokia do reassures us yesterday that N9 will be supported for years to come. But for how long? Its still left unanswered. (or using their terms, they could not quantify it)

Details of the event? Its mostly more on the E6 and the X7, plus Symbian Anna as a whole. Not to mention, some brainstorming on N9 marketing in Malaysia.

Sent from my Nokia E6-00

Rather than hoping that the Nokia will continue provide software support you better hope that MeeGo/Maemo community still interested in this device.As long as there are still interest in this community they will continue with their version of software support.
N900 now have almost complete landscape/portrait support thanks to community software support.

Those who were working in Maemo/MeeGo was not booted out.Most of them quit because of disagreement with Nokia Management on the OS support issue.
It's a wonder Nokia managed to keep stskeeps after MeeGo fiasco.
But it was a good move to support the OS with the 250 unit of N950 to independent developers.

Let's just say the hardware already fix, nothing can be done, although we all hope it can get better hardware. True that as long as the OS well optimized, smooth, can handle multi-tasking well, etc. The hardware isn't important.... but something that is also important; Nowadays, it's about HD and Full HD capability, the N9 would most probably have trouble playing Full HD, by the time it's launch, especially next year, the requirements from people will go even higher due to the standards is changing and moving forward everyday, thus it is crucial not to delay too long. This device, I believe was suppose to launch early this year (if not last year), but there was lots of delay.
Look at the N900, it was delayed, even though it's still a good device and promising OS, but due to the hardware limitation, it causes many limitation to the OS for the community to improve it. As for end user, during the day it was launch, it was still OK, but now, YouTube supports 480p, 720p,... many videos are in HD quality, websites are more complicated than ever.

One thing tough, it's good to know that the N9 is generous with 1GB RAM. That's indeed a shocking, especially from Nokia.

Just stating that hardware is still important, at least as a feedback to Nokia for future devices; They may have provide a decent or good hardware spec, but by the time they launch it, it might be outdated as technology moves too fast.

Anyway, honestly speaking, whether it's the FIRST and/or LAST MeeGo device from Nokia, it's not really important, especially nowadays... How many people actually use the phone for like maybe 2 or 3 years. In the coming years, probably people will change phones is shorter interval, with phones getting cheaper, technology moving faster, and also telcos offering this and that plan. People would be tempted to change their phone.

So, I think as long as this N9 and it's MeeGo OS, can fullfill the requirements of the user during it's time, it's good enough. More important, how good it is compared to others, what it can do that others can't offer during it's time. Just like N900, when it's launch, there's so many things/features that it have that NO competitor has. It was UNIQUE and people who KNOW about these stuffs, sees your device, they will be amazed and wonder WHY their phone can't do it. This is what makes people interested, want to change. It's similar like iPhone, what is can do, it attracts people who want 'smoothness', 'simplicity'.
This N9 selling point is even better I would say, it has smoothness and simplicity, yet its very powerful and flexible; Something that, probably no other mobile OS currently can offer? (but can soon catch up; so the key is to not to delay too long)


Basically, Nokia is really looking forward to market the N9 and get more people interested; One reason I was told is they need to convince that Malaysia has a lot of interested owners so they can bring in this device or maybe more volume or something like that. Remember that N900 was originally not plan to be launch in Malaysia, but due to overwhelming demands, it was finally launch here; Then again, the sale response I think wasn't that good? I think, probably due to this, they need to convince the N9 market for Malaysia? No idea, just my speculations based on N900 response; After all, if they bring many units here and it didn't sell well, then they might as well market this device in those countries that really looking forward for this device (the N9 will not be launch in several country, plus, India and HK, I think the have many enthusiast/interested people, look at the response for N900 and their amazing launching for N900)

One of the reason why the N900 wasnt that celebrated here was also when the devices came here it was so damn late. Most people already bought their AP sets and the publicity was close to none. Then again i was kinda interested in the N900 for a long period till they say they will not be launching here and i moved on.
