Yep, the voice recognition on my Dell Venue Pro also quite impressive. But it sure have problems in detecting accents, something that you will get the hang of it, if you use it more and more.

One great thing about TellMe feature in WP7, if I connected to my phone via Bluetooth, as soon as I receive a text message, the phone will read it to me, and I can reply and send messages (Only short ones, as longer message will definitely have problems to be transcribed into text. Our Malaysian accent sure not the easiest to decipher ) without even getting my phone outta my pocket. Very convenient IMHO.

Thanks!

Been a Maemo user since N810 days, still kicking myself for choosing the craptastic N97 over the uber-awesome N900 and definitely not going to miss out on the N9

glad to hear it maybe u can teach some tips/trick here

Wait till hands on the Lumnia, the wallpaper also same like N9, you'll be double-tapping and swiping

lol, so irrelevant lol

add me 16gb black..really proud!

You should really consider getting a second-hand N900; It's still the best to date, offering more PC like experience; No replacement to date; got an Android qwerty, despite better specs and latest Flash support, it's not giving even close experience; My productivity and what I can do all went down... No true multi-tasking is a painful experience, despite there's so many web browser available, the chrome-like Dolphin, Firefox, Opera, none offer as good experience as Maemo dinosaur-aging browser with Flash 9.
With N900, it's truely like having a mini-computer in your hand, you can use short-cut keys just like a PC, ctrl+A, ctrl+v, shift+cursor, etc. We can also activate the mouse cursor by swiping from outside the screen. Doing such in Android is such a pain and annoying, worst without the true-multitasking capability.
The N900 is still there to stay, despite the age and how old it is, it's still the best internet tablet smartphone available to date, plus, with mplayer, the codecs, it's one of the device which can play almost any video files (except those in high resolution/bitrate). With other OS, there's just so many issue and limitations.

RM40 only? Here penang most shops are selling at RM60++

hi,anyone of u can confirm with me weather this phone got chinese input or interface?

if you can't find it in stock version, just update to pr1.1

on PR1.1 yes

Yes, but does it have whatsapp, fruit ninja and angry birds? How about dropbox, skype or sports tracker? The N900 is for geeks and hackers, general users should not think it can replace their Android or iphone. It is still a good device but a dead end.

if you own a Nokia N900 and fully utlize you can see the difference. Only thing its lack is update and apps.

Nah, I never recommend for general users. From the start of N900 thread, I always tell people what is N900 about and warn people, I even show them the videos and tell them it may not suit everyone; During its time, many people were saying how great the phone is, so many people just buy without understanding whether it suits them. There's many definition in terms of a good phone, to people who emphasize on camera, will prioritize on camera, so any phone with poor camera will become a not good phone.

As for the apps, Angry Birds sure have since it's Nokia. Skype is also one of the major integrated social network, then Facebook; which now brought to MeeGo. There is dropbox app actually, an pretty powerful one. In terms of apps, actually, there's A LOT of apps in the repositories.... For those users who rely on OVI Store, will see... pretty empty. One major difference in terms of apps between Maemo and MeeGo is, Maemo has this "App Manager" which you can browse apps and manage apps, you can also add more "repositories" for other sources of apps; Means, no need to browse to those apps website and download. It's sort of like Cydia in iOS.
Perhaps this "App Manager/Repository" thing can be develop and made available on the MeeGo?

With MeeGo, another issue, seems they have control over what type of file you can download from the browser, kinda of annoying. If not wrong, using FireFox seems can bypass it.

The person I recommend to, is senior Maemo user; he's been using N810. He mentioned he skip N900 and went for N97. Now, he got himself a N9. I'm just suggesting to him, he should consider getting a second-hand N900.

This is one of my favourite N900 review video, which also shows/explain to people that it's not for everyone:
