Comments on: Nokia’s Maemo Masterpiece – The N900 http://the-gadgeteer.com/2009/08/27/nokias-mamo-masterpiece-the-n900/ Gadget reviews and news by Julie Strietelmeier and friends since 1997 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:50:51 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Adam Scinto http://the-gadgeteer.com/2009/08/27/nokias-mamo-masterpiece-the-n900/comment-page-1/#comment-41975 Adam Scinto Sat, 29 Aug 2009 01:58:49 +0000 http://the-gadgeteer.com/?p=20681#comment-41975 This is definitely a phone - There's a alot of confusion on the subject, but if you look at Nokia's specifications page you'll see data and voice capabilities are listed separately. Also - If you look closely at the pictures showing phone calls in progress - You'll see that some of the phone calls have a mobile phone icon and others have a Skype icon. So it's a mobile phone, and it's going to be €500 supposedly.

I'm excited and looking forward to this kind of powerhouse and on T-mobile to boot. Its the beginning of the next generation of Nokia phones. Revolution not Evolution!

I skipped the n800 and the n810. I just want a web "tablet"! I don't need an iPhone. So... is THIS goody a PHONE? Or just data (as carly suggests)? I’ve owned the n770.

I just want a web “tablet”! I don’t need an iPhone.

So… is THIS goody a PHONE? Or just data (as carly suggests)?

Maemo. The a and e are reversed. I've got my fingers crossed in vain hoping that this beast will make it to verizon. There’s a typo in the post. Maemo. The a and e are reversed.

No more dilly dallying. (I am bringing the word back). The videos posted on Engadget are ridiculously nice. It seems fast, smooth and polished. I love the font (of all things) it uses. I really hope the GPS is fully equipped, as the N800/10 I owned required an upgrade ( I believe) to get some really good map functionality from it. I see the resistive screen as a plus, actually - even though lots of people will frown, it will work with Gloves! Which means, up here in New England, I can use it. It's got 1700, too - which means, eventually it is coming to the US via T-Mobile. (hope!) I am gadget knucklehead, and this phone, while I may not own it, makes me happy for Nokia.
