Advertisements I thought I would give you guys a bit of a heads up about installing applications as a few people (my self included) have got to the point where applications just seem to stop installing or the phone crashes. First thing first, before you install applications you are not sure of or just want […]

James Burland's N900 Video Sample Compilation

| December 30, 2009 | Reply

James Burland of Nokia Creative [and MNB :)] has put together a beautiful video compilation he’s shot on his N900. Quality wise the N900 is very good (I’m guessing youtube/video editor may have degraded slightly from original but it’s still very good). As well as being the highest resolution video from Nokia at 848X480, it’s […]

15 hardware changes that would have made N900 physically irresistible – [15 essential hardware features for its successor]

The N900 is a great phone, but it is (as Nokia themselves have more or less said) a work in progress. I’ll say it again, it’s step 4 of 5 to Maemo glory. Software evolution to one side (see firmware update wishlist for N900),  understandably, this early adopter product isn’t physically “perfect” for mass market. I.E. […]

N900 as a home media centre: Best Nseries TV-out experience

This makes the N900 a serious contender as a […]

Video: 9 homescreens on the N900 – all accessible in one swipe

Nokia totally got me hooked on their concept of homescreens and “alwaysonlineasithappens” with the N97. I found it extremely useful but wanted more of it than the one homescreen + blank screen that the N97 has. With the N900 we had four homscreens! At last! I’m able to have a main desktop for things I […]
