Yeah. I want it before the year ends..

yes, they should be holding one by now, internal testing, normally teams that are involve would have already start using them as their daily device to determine if it is stable enough as a final version, if there is bug, they throw to software team to solve them

well, MS encourage the students with that by giving them dev units. Dev sets are unlocked though but you cant call.

MS dev program is not available in Malaysia, neither is Nokia's dev program, or at least, not that I know of. There's however a program catered for students, sadly, I'm too old for that.

in other words, its really need a strong 3g line to state it always on9..
rite?

Put it this way. When your phone goes on idle, your phone will automatically shut down its WiFi, the rationale, according to Microsoft, is to conserve battery (which I personally think is bullshit). So when your WiFi is down and you have no 3G available, WNS cannot "push" the notification to your phone. It's not a matter of 3G strength, it's more like you need to leave 3G on most of the time.

honestly its annoying. It shut off in less than 1 minute. Then there no notification until you touch your phone.

Meanwhile

The WiFi shutdown part will only happen when your screen goes black. So this depends on how long you set to keep your phone awake.

As for notifications, to be fair, it only happens to some vendors, most notably Whatsapp, since it's also the most used. This has got nothing to do with the OS. It functions just like the "push" you receive for Hotmails / Outlook. It's instant. The reason for delay in Whatsapp is like I explained before, server issue.

Get a paid account, problem solved (most of the time anyway).

nope even paid still there is a delay. Once i switch OS that problem practically disappear.

Noticed I said (most of the time)? This has got nothing to do with the OS. It is due to the servers. For Android, with the right protocols, any servers can do a "push". I'm not too sure about Apple, so I can't comment.

For Windows, to do a Push you need WNS, short for Windows Notification Services. It's only available / offered via Windows Azure, Microsoft's cloud servers. So, I presume that Whatsapp probably bought a lower end package, seeing that the market is too small to bother.

Do you use WPCentral? If you do, you'd realize that WPCentral's push is almost always on time. The technology behind is the same, no magic at play here.

hi guys..
ive settle the issue.. ive send back to the shop

Yah! Mind boggling as to why it's taking so long!

Refer above

Lots of reviews already out. These are some:

http://www.laptopmag.com/nokia-lumia-920.aspx

http://www.pocket-lint.com/review/6042/nok...ws-phone-review (Kinda negative review, all points about the phone were positive but somehow the reviewer gave it a low point for the weight)

Looks like notification center will be on the next update.

This is great! Swipe to the left pls.
Best case scenario is they give the update at the same time 920 is available in Malaysia.

And their sample photos are better than most samples I've seen so far.

Pocket lint review is stupid. Relegated to 3 stars just becaus of weight ALONE. My n93 was 180g and I had little problems then and now.
