*OFFICIAL THREAD: Nokia N97

Oh I know they are out there but I don't know any personally. Not well enough that they've shown me the intricacies of their language. But if yall say you can write in Chinese without a stylus then it can be done. Honestly, I can't wait to get my hands on this phone.
 
lol...I'd be curious to see the age group of people here on these threads that plunged for the 97. If I could figure how to start a poll thread...fyi..57 here..may explain some of my posts
 
Aarrgh...

sr1329's posts are really damaging my enthusiasm for this phone! :crying: Thanks, man, I thought this would be the Jesus phone but now I feel three things will limit this device beyond what any firmware update can fix later on:
- Underpowered CPU
- Lack of HW 3D acceleration
- Limited RAM
I'm glad I only paid $454 :lolup: :lolup: :lolup: for this POS and if it really sucks that bad I will give it to my wife, so at least she can use it as a media player.
 
Towards the end there seems to be a Nokia representative talking, so I'm guessing they're both sample units open for monitored previews or whatever young people do nowadays.

Did the guy say he was browsing on EDGE? If so I am rather impressed by the usability of the widgets on an EDGE connection.. WinMo features on EDGE are an absolute nightmare.
 
While I'm happy in wm land for the time being and not planning to get one of these any time soon, I'd def get black. Black just does it for me, it has that look of sleek-ness, smooth and cool. My htc hd is black all the way. With black theme and jet black wallpapers. It's always a personal pref. , but no matter which phone it is it's gotta be black. Hands down, black is cool.:cool:
Chicks light up when they see white for a reason ya know. :D Feminine style!
 
I don't know what it is about these hate trolls...as soon as one leaves, another one follows...first it was sr##, then sr disappeared and it was "JohnnyBruha" ( at least, he made some sense), then he disappeared and now it's "friend'scatdied"...who's next???
If you don't like the N97, if you hate it, if you think Nokia's robbing you...go make a "N97 Hate Thread, go get yourself a Pre, iPhone, TouchPro2, Omnia HD....there are plenty of other alternatives...


On another note, I can't wait...I'm pre-ordering my black N97 tonight :D
 
There would have to be value added proposition for it to be considered. Capacitive touchscreen and faster processor means nothing if that's not a bottleneck and we've never seen any indication they are. The RAM COULD be a bottleneck. In your scenario, no I doubt I would see the need to upgrade.

In my scenario (8-12mp camera with xenon flash and the RAM), I'd give it more serious consideration.
 
sorry gwapz to ask you a couple of questions but

1.How is the internet experience? is it really fast browsing?

2. I heard that the screen perform like capacitive screen, is really true?

3. How is different from 5800 xm ?
 
Your experience is far worse than mine because I can play Youtube vids in the client or in the browser without issue. The only time I got an 'out of memory' message was regarding text messages and I actually was out of memory (I had something like 6000 text messages in my inbox and it wouldn't let me receive anymore...I actually thought one of you had sent me the Curse of Silence)
 
Guys, you should go download the N97 SDK file at forum.nokia.com that will answer many of your questions about it's menu and features.

It's a big file (almost 1GB) but well worth your time to get a better feel of the device.
