Excellent summary of smartphone os, Andy. If one wants a simple os which works smoothly, go for iphone and benefit from the huge number of apps, if one wants power and customization go for Android. MeeGo is a sort of hybrid with the best of both worlds - simple yet optionally powerful with developer mode. As for WP I don't see what segment it occupies unless one wants a simple os but can't afford an iphone.

Apps for MeeGo will keep on improving. It's only 4 months since N9 hit the shelves and it is already quite good. I think most users will be able to find 80%-90% of apps they need now. Give another 4 months and I don't think apps will be a factor any more.

Thanks~
yes, want simple OS but can't afford iPhone; Or don't need those apps/games, but into social networking, the People Hub will be an interesting and nice feature.

Still, MeeGo is still the best, it has social integration, smooth as well, and simple yet powerful and best of all have TRUE multi-tasking. The new PR1.2 really is gives much better experience with the notifications plus the upload feature is the best so far, so many options and ability to post to album and creating albums. PR1.2 incorporates face tagging recognition as well.
For those not really care much about apps, N9 is still the best, it's just lacking WhatsApp as it's like something widely used now (some people will not reply normal SMS, till this extend; or you won't get updates from them cause they only send to WhatsApp contacts.)

Anyway, as for apps; As long as it have the good and popular ones, it's good enough. For me, I installed many apps on the Android, I can say that I hardly touch any of those apps, but you know human, we see we install, but do we really need it?
So, I believe most people also same. As long they bring those important and popular apps/games, it should be enough.

finally updated to 1.2! lost most of my n9qtweak stuff and msn any way to get them back? scared to use it because someone mentioned a few pages back that it will cause damage to the device

edit: tried to update my applications but it still keeps saying device is up to date :/

yeppp 1.2 rocks.. but guys, any news bout video call? cant find any option for front camera

So you're going to keep your N9?

Tried the continous shutter. Not bad, fast and clear, as long as hand dont shake. Can move it around the room also. Considering my photography taking skills is so so,this will compensate. More pro description of course wait for sifu aspire's pics.

it felt smoother even without performance tweak inside the developer mode..

Added on March 1, 2012, 7:41 pmHi Kenny..most probably yes since it looks like impossible to sell it though..hahaha

It's a good phone anyway..

With more development I must say it will be a better phone in the future

PR1.3 is coming soon right?

should produce a good enough panorama
however gotta go do the stitching manually :/

PR1.3 coming soon? Aiyah...you are too greedy la!

If a Whatsapp clone is developed for N9 and if Android 4 successfully ported you won't regret your decision. Both projects are in an advanced stage.

does everyone's manage applications>check for updates work? mine is still not working :/

what do u mean not working?
did u flash ur PR1.1 to some other variant?

do check back on our earlier discussion. you'll need to download the plugin from Nokia Store first. Download Gtalk Video Call by Nokia. For the time being only Gtalk Video Call are allowed.

I couldnt get OTA updates so I used NSU instead. It updated and I have PR1.2 but I still cant detect app updates

only on OTA u can see update for apps..since u update via NSU i think i come in pakage...

guys check it out there a media sharing with DLNA devices cool

hmm...so i have to revert back to 1.1 and update via OTA to be able to get OTA app updates?

I also notice the qwerty keyboard is more accurate now on PR1.2

Are trying on wi-fi or 3G? It may not work on 3G.
