*OFFICIAL THREAD: Nokia N97

I will never ever, ever, ever, ever, buy anything that has a non-removable battery.
Very first qualification! The ipod, iphone don't even exist for me at all.

Unless the battery lasts for atleast 2 weeks on heavy use using multiple equipment nseries features (doesn't exist) a non-removable battery is totally and completely NEXXXXXXXXTTTTTTTT!!
Get away from me with that crap!

If Iphone can get that new invention called litroenergy installed in their phone from glowpaint.com to replace the battery so that it never ever needs charging then I will consider it,...maybe, otherwise you gotta be joking me.

People coming onto this N97 calling Nokia "Jokia"..... Come on guys,
Non-removable battery is the biggest joke of all time!!

I only make like 12 bucks an hour, 17 something at overtime and you (Apple) want me to seriously consider a phone,....for that matter any portable electronic device, with a non-removal battery?
What stupid person thought to engineer that stupid battery idea into the Iphone?
You think I'm gonna give you my money that I worked hard for that "sorry better find an outlet" S*** you gotta be joking!

From the new Star Trek movie remember when Captain Kirks dad was talking to his wife right before he died about what to name their son (Kirk) and she said,
"Tiberius, after your father"
and he said,
"No way! That's the worst!"
That's how I feel about non-removable batteries in a portable device.

There is no future for a phone with a non-removable battery unless it is being constantly charged by a new invention such as litroenergy.

That is the very first thing you have to consider in the design (removable battery) and if you don't your product is doomed IMO.
 
This makes me cry. I hate the keyboard on the N810 enough that this is a deal breaker for me and this gives me little hope for the quality of the keyboard on the next Maemo device. It blows my mind that Nokia can make one of the best mobile keyboards in the E71 and then put out such crap as the N810 thumb board.
 
Ummm...$770 CAD isn't $650 USD. I don't have a conversion calculator in front of me right at this moment but our dollar isn't that low.

And NCIX.com doesn't ship to the US, they redirect you to NCIXUS.com and they aren't selling the OmniaHD
 
re: calls going to voicemail when using edge data

Let's see here, you think the N97 will have any more problems than the iPhone 2g or 3g when outside ATT's miniscule 3g area? A quick google search turns up a thread or two but nothing really substantive. A quick test here while streaming BBC world service over edge shows the call goes through.

It's a cell phone, not all calls go through anyways. You have poor coverage, there's no free voice channels, etc, etc That's why you have voicemail. So really, is this a real problem?
 
I have to believe that will happen in a firmware update...maybe the first one. Given another few weeks or so I imagine they would release the phone with an onscreen qwerty..but they probably did the right thing to release it without, rather than a further delay
 
Ricky Cadden doesn't seem like the type of guy to steal your N97 (because he will probably end up getting 4 from Nokia anyway LOL), ask him

I apologize in advance Ricky. I'm sure your inbox is going to fill up with requests from Canadians and people all over the globe where the N97 isn't available for pre-order. :buddies:
 
HA!

I've been trying to get VPN working on S60 for ages. I can state for a fact that if you have a Cisco VPN setup, you're out of luck with S60. I can state that based on what I've read, the ONLY VPN solution that seems to work with S60 is the Nokia VPN solution, which is used by one company... Nokia.
 
yeah. Slim was in. Its all about cosmetic features, hence sleekness of iPhone. I like my items BIG and FAT. WELL ROUNDED FULL of features. lol
 
This thread is almost impossible to follow with a full-time job with overtime almost 4days/wk. Thanks for this video!!

Actually OPK's english and presence is getting much smoother which may translate to USA carrier partnerships. Also its the first time I've seen him laugh which is good he has a personality beyond a strong business CEO presence.



Damn Strait its fast. I even want to start tweeeting!
