Advertisements The N900, like the N97, has a homescreen which you can customize with LIVE widgets , contacts, bookmarks and app shortcuts. However, unlike the N97, the N900: has 4 homescreens (effectively making 1 big panoramic homescreen) the widgets/shortcuts are not locked into any specific position (like previous tablets)- customizing is very easy – delete, […]
Previously, the only way to make a call on a Maemo device was via skype. The Nokia N900 is the first Maemo PHONE so you can make your standard mobile/landline calls. [YOUTUBE=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eZu3nku2uM] What’s interesting with the current firmware in the N900 is HOW you make a call. There aren’t any hardware keys [Green/Red Call/End buttons]like […]
On Monday I got an email from WOMWorld inviting me to a “top secret” event happening in London and it’s supposedly taking place around 22nd/23rd October. [link – wordpress in chrome sucks] I wanted to wait until I knew more about what was happening, but even after the phone call from WOMWorld’s Katie this afternoon […]
Here’s a hands on demo of photo sharing via email on the N900. It’s very simple, fluid and very fast. Some things worth noticing are: Look how fast it opens up photos Check out the nifty transtitions – no laggy boring screen switches – you see visual transformations of one area of the phone (menu) […]
The calendar app on the N900 is the best iteration of a Nokia Calendar app on a Nokia Mobile Device. On its own merit, visually it looks pretty good; full screen with some slick transitions. Having a really crap calendar experience with S60 5th Edition makes this look even better for me (was that the […]
This video is in German, but don’t worry if you’re Anglophone-only. This is a hands on demo of the N900’s Mozilla Browser, and the alternative Fennec Browser Beta demonstrated via TV out. Compared to the default Mozilla Browser, Fennec has side loading tabs, different icons/buttons and it seems it doesn’t load flash content (at least […]
Senior Product Manager, Mikko Korpelainen demonstrates the Maemo 5 Web Browser on the Nokia N900 [Youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUCc2C4JPJE] Flash isn’t anything new on a Nokia, but 9.4 on the N900 looks really good. On previous Nseries (even tablets), flash was ok, but it would not render full flash heavy sites like your desktop. Especially not flash game […]
“Banner” is a scrolling LED Dot Matrix Display for S60 5th Edition devices like the Nokia N97, 5800, 5530, Samsung i8910 and Sony Ericsson Satio. You can change the message to whatever you like using the on screen keyboard or if you’ve got a proper keyboard (N97/N97 Mini) you could use that instead. It’s in […]
Michael Jerz from MySymbian has been testing the Nokia N900 for several weeks and has published a monster of a (p)review. This is, btw, of a Proto N900, so some findings may or may (have) change(d) with actual final production N900. [N900: Positively small compared to its ancestors] Skimming through the first page and it’s […]
