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

| December 27, 2009 | Reply

Advertisements 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. […]

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

| December 26, 2009 | Reply

A major strength of the nearly all Nseries range is their ability to hook up to a TV screen via the 3.5mm jack [and CA-75U cable-included].  The N900 is the first Nokia tablet that allows this and amongst all other Nseries provides the best TV-out experience. This makes the N900 a serious contender as a […]

How to: Tethering your N900 to your PC – One Touch Access

| December 23, 2009 | Reply

Out of the box, the N900 supports data tethering. No settings to endure or subscriptions to pay. This means you can connect your N900 to your computer should you need to connect to the internet other than ethernet/WiFi. [Though you must check you’ve got a data plan and your network supports this] This has been […]

Firmware update wishlist for the N900: 35 things that need sorting in the Nokia N900 (software wise)

We all know that the N900 is a work in progress. Nokia famously proclaimed the N900 to only be “step 4” of a 5 step route to Maemo glory and smartphone perfection. Well words to that effect anyway. Hardware wise -I won’t go into this too heavily though there are three main aspects that resonate […]

Liqflow on the N900 – simple visual delight

Liqflow on the N900 – simple visual delight

| December 20, 2009 | Reply

I remember seeing demonstrated for the first time at OneDotZero by its creator, Gary Birkett. Liqflow uses the N900’s accelerometer and touch screen to bring about a simple yet mesmerising movement of dots that change colour depending on speed of their movement [gray/white when slow moving – ascends across a rainbow of colorus as it […]

ITPro's Nokia N900 Review: 5 stars – A breath of Fresh air!

| December 20, 2009 | Reply

iN ITPro – one of the leading tech sites in Britain has reviewed the Nokia N900 and summarises it as “Quite simply, it’s a breath of fresh air.” As with most reviews of the N900 – hindering it seems to be the size (at times the resistive screen), but other than that, it’s very good […]

Previously we looked at Mauku as a twitter app for the N900. I liked the look, but it lacked ability to read tweet replies and direct messages. Witter might just be the twitter application to try out as it does allow you to read mentions and direct messages. There’s a simply bar at the top […]

GBoggle on the N900 [Free Game]

| December 19, 2009 | 7 Replies

This is a simple yet surprisingly addictive game (at least for me). I’ve never been a fan of the actual “Boggle” game, but found this one really entertaining. With GBoggle, you’ve got a 4×4 row of letters, standard Boggle rules: find words by joining letters that are only one letter away, sideways or diagonally, to […]

Braek on the N900 – Broken Screen Simulator

| December 19, 2009 | 88 Replies

This application simulates a cracked screen on your N900. After launching it appears everywhere and for the life of me, I don’t know how to exit it (there’s no end current task option) apart from restarting the phone. If you try and open up “Braek” a second time whilst you still have a “cracked screen” […]
