Nokia N900 Linux-based mobile
,----[ Quote ]
| FINNISH PHONE MAKER Nokia's N900 is a
| Linux-based mobile device with a number of
| advanced features, including application
| multi-tasking, built-in VoIP support,
| stereo speakers, graphics acceleration,
| video output to a TV, and more.
|
| Announced last August and available now
| from Vodafone, Carphone Warehouse and
| Nokia's online shop, the Nokia N900 is
| part of the firm's N Series of multimedia
| handsets. However, it is more like a tiny
| computer that can make voice calls rather
| than a smartphone. This is demonstrated by
| the fact that the main screen resembles a
| computer desktop, and the phone features
| are relegated to just one application
| among many others.

Breaking the Nokia Booklet. Part 2.

| Two things are clear from this experience:
| (1) Nokia made a very poor choice with the
| GMA 500, and (2) Wubi is a fantastic way
| to get Linux on your freedom-hating
| machine.

Nokia Q4 shows it ain't dead yet

| Nokia had a pretty decent fourth quarter
| and is showing the first signs that savage
| cost-cutting and redundancies might just
| be working.

| Sales were down four per cent to â12bn and
| operating profit jumped 132 per cent to
| â1.1bn.

OpenOffice.org and the Gimp on the N900
,----[ Quote ]
| I have had my N900 for about one month now.
| During that time I have enjoyed several
| âWow!â moments. For example, being able to
| use the web just as if I was onha my
| desktop, including heavy javascript and
| flash sites such as Google Maps, Google
| Docs, GMail, Photobucket, etc. was amazing
| to me. Being a Linux user for many years, I
| really enjoy having access to a terminal
| application with access to root and to
| tools like the vi text editor. Being able
| to use Python to develop right on the
| device and to be able to use my own old
| Python programs, such as 7Squeeze, gave me
| that very warm feeling of validation. But,
| the N900 had one more big Wow! moment in
| store for me, one that I truly did not
| expect.

Nokia N900 Review
,----[ Quote ]
| Nokia N900 is the final product which opens up a
| new path for the Finnish smartphone producer.
| After Google, which launched its new open source
| operating system for mobile phones, Nokia raised
| the stakes a few months later with its own
| vision, which is called Maemo. Android OS, as
| well as Maemo are both based on the well-known
| Linux platform, but they are pretty much
| different because they are the results of two
| different working teams. Before getting into
| more in-depth information, do not overlook the
| fact that we will be reviewing an Internet
| tablet, with some limited phone capabilities.

Nokia N900 review
,----[ Quote ]
| The N900 is Nokiaâs most hyped phone this year,
| running on the Linux-based Maemo OS. Does it
| show that Symbian should be scrapped or is it
| just another touch screen disappointment? We
| review the N900 to find out.
|
| Nokiaâs recent news that it may make the move
| from Symbian to Maemo for all its smartphones
| wonât come as a disappointment to those who
| have been tut tutting over Symbianâs antiquated
| S60 OS.

Firefox for Mobile RC - Nokia N900 just got better.
,----[ Quote ]
| The aim of the Firefox for Mobile is to
| replicate - in a mobile environment- the
| same user experience of Firefox on the PC.
| With the list of impressive features that
| have been pumped into the mobile version, I
| think Mozilla is on its way to achieving
| that goal.
