Until its available via NSU or FOTA, I don't think end users should get excited.. and that may never happen

fingers crossed, though!

nope. all tmo here. got an android dev phone, touch pro 2, n97, and what used to be an n900... plenty to fall back on but the n900 was the best of them by far... to me anyway]]>Mar 4th 2010 8:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 5th 2010 8:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/

I'm sending my N900 back tomorrow, actually. Not because of the device itself or its OS, but because of the T-Mobile coverage and lack of a worthwhile Ovi Maps app. We supposedly have 3G coverage here in Raleigh on T-Mobile, but good luck trying to get anything above a couple of bars of GSM inside a building. ]]>Mar 4th 2010 7:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 5th 2010 3:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/

yes. I have a Pre that I got on launch day but currently use an N900 most of the time (the Pre is my work phone). I love both operating systems, but they each have their strengths. webOS strengths include synergy, the notification system, etc. I feel as though Maemo is a better OS but it's far too "linuxy" for the average user out there (not that I care, at all). Nokia and Palm are my two fav mobile companies so if they were to combine forces it would be something out of a dream for me.]]>Mar 4th 2010 9:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/
Though WebOS is good, Nokia'd be more interested in Palm's patent portfolio then another OS to spend resources on.]]>Mar 4th 2010 10:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/

I kinda dont understand what you mean with, "let's see what will remain from Maemo after the merger". Python and Qt? Check. Ovi? Check. Clutter? Check. All other Apps but ported to MeeGo? Check.

The underlying OS will be MeeGo, what services sit on top of it and what apps will run will be decided by the vendor and the user.]]>Mar 5th 2010 1:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXK9XFolwTM

Around 4:00]]>Mar 5th 2010 4:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 5th 2010 6:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/I had an iPhone, prior to N900, and when my wife uses both she much prefers the N900's screen. Also you cant use iPhone with gloves, N900 you can.

About the device thickness, yes you are totally right. Some people might think that I am always... hm... "happy", when I put in my front pocket. Again for me, not a problem since I just HATE not having a keyboard. I hated inputing text in iPhone and I barely use the virtual keyboard in N900...

The screen makes it barely unusable? Sorry mate but, do you love screens or what? The device is very capable (heck, it even runs Mac OSX) It is like me saying that Nexus One is shit just because it doesnt have a keyboard. Gotta look beyond that dude...]]>Mar 5th 2010 10:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 5th 2010 11:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/
I mean that you really do seem to like the interaction with the screen, and as you stated before, is a matter of personal taste. I would prefer a less sensitive screen, like in the N900 that not every little mistaken gesture is computed, but that would give me the crispiness of an AMOLED or Super AMOLED (dunno the names).

I suppose you are North American, and it strikes me a lot that you guys love capacitive (with some exceptions) and here in EU I see the opposite (exceptions applied).

Pay attention to the next Nokia device, it will have a capacitive (yuck!). ;) It will blow your mind if this is what you dig.

Peace :)]]>Mar 5th 2010 12:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 5th 2010 1:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/
Again man, touchscreen does not suck :) They made a very good job in actually making a decent resistive touchscreen.

But besides this debacle of whether the touchscreen is good or not, thickness of device and so on... Nokia has made very good impression with the geek community, you know, the kind of guys that actually build apps, letting them have total control over the hardware. The amount of tinkering with this device is huge and gave Nokia back its momentum. Again, just wait and see what forgeries. ;) You WILL be surprised.]]>Mar 5th 2010 1:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 4th 2010 8:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 4th 2010 8:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 4th 2010 9:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/meego-repository-going-public-later-this-month-coming-to-nokia/Mar 5th 2010 6:15AM
