I'm eager to hear if the battery makes it to the end of a day.... I'd like not to have a spare batter in my other pocket.
It died after 8 hrs of heavy use. And I mean real heavy. All the time
connected to home WLAN, intensive net browsing, downloads, video streaming,
video playback, music playback, running multiple apps, etc;
With more moderate use, while on the road, I think it should last through
the day.
We'll see soon enough, I guess.
Ovi Maps instead of Google Maps? Where are the precious facebook and twitter apps? :(
detailed sources: http://bit.ly/nokia-900-full-specs-details-best...
Its good to see Nokia finally release a new breed of their communicator series, I just hope it won't turn out to be another "average" phone.
What's the point?
How's the GPS? Does it come with a voice navigation software. I supposed OVI map was the default and owners have to pay for a turn-by-turn navigation. Any Maemo apps that does a similar job to TomTom?
It would be nice if know how it performs with mainstream VOIP services like Voipbuster and Sipgate.
Haven't tested other VoIP services, except for Skype (which worked flawlesly). May to that some time later.
One question.......Does it sync with Ovi files software or is there a newer CD packaged with the N900?
Thanks,
Barry
But I have only a pre-release model so such things can be expected. I'm sure, in a commercial release these issues will be fixed.
I have a few questions.
Did you get to use Google Voice? I Ask because Ive been using it on my pre alot lately and need it to work out the box.
Hows the 3G web browsing speed?
Also any word MMS being included?
Lastly is there a tethering app for this phone something like Joiku for Maemo 5?
Web on 3G is great.
MMS due Dec 09.
Tethering, yes.
if not then where can u use it
i read some where that it could be used for 3g video calling does that mean that u could do that on tmobile
And for now, I haven't found any way to use friont facing camera. But it's early days, I haven't explored all the things in N900. Haven't even tested the main camera. Also more firmware updates are coming, so things can change pretty soon

I heard that some of them don't work so well, so perhaps that's why they're not in the main one. YMMV. At least it shows what they're aiming for. I'm currently signed in for AIM, GTalk, MSN, Ovi, Skype, and Yahoo, and regularly use GTalk and Skype.
Found a plugin for MSN (beta version), installed it and now MSN natively integrated with my phone book. JUst like Skype and GTalk.
Haven't found any way to make video calls yet, though.
I have a question!!
:)
How is the audio? I mean are the speakers loud or on par with the N95?
Thanksss x
