Any plans whatsoever for Latin America launches (Brazil, especifically)? Have Nokia talked to carriers (or vice-versa), is there anything to be said?
Any plans for an India launch? If so, at what price points? Also, any tie-ups with 3G-carriers (BSNL/MTNL) there to get the phone subsidized?
N900 Hardware Question
Is there an internal battery for which would allow hot-swapping the main battery?
Does it have a Backlit keyboard
Is it a Pressure-sensitive touchscreen (MaemoPad+ supports)
I'm just interested in knowing to what extent you can use the N900 with one hand, i.e. portrait mode
Is it possible to disable/turn off the cellular radio without disabling wifi/bluetooth?
- From Thread; apparently pulling SIM chip will do this on Nokia phones.
can we use FM without plugging headset (internal antenna?)
is memory card hot-pluggable?
N900 Audio Questions
Maximum sampling rates on audio output/input (think xoscope)
Is it possible to record high-quality (i.e. high bitrate) audio from the built-in microphone?
Could you test the sound with very very good headphone?
- Unlikely - unless there are very good headphones available there. I'll take my "normal" headphones --06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
Can you check that means no breath in headphones for music?
- Don't understand. --06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
How does the n900 compare in volume to the N95/N800/N810 speakers when playing online videos from the browser and any youtube app such as digia, canola, mytube etc.?
- Will depend on hardware available (I'll have my N810) and loudness on show floor. --06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
N900 OS Questions
Will we be able to set the processor governor to performance mode like we could with the OMAP2 in the N8x0 devices?
Output of "df"
Output of "free"
Output of "dmesg"
Google "VOIP": What is the exact protocol used in the N900? What is the video support? How do they relate to the current implementation of Google Talk / Voice&Video Chat? Can you do N900 <-> Desktop?
Is there Jabber/XMPP support like in the old devices (connecting to other servers then the google server)?
Is there support for "normal" Jingle (the technology enabling Voice/Video Chat over Jabber/XMPP) as opposed to the version thereof Google Talk uses?
Is there connectivity preferences, ie choose wifi over cellular to keep data costs down?
Is it possible to disable transitions (eye candy)? I believe an app will be available to do this.
- There's already an app in Fremantle extras, put together by Urho Kontorri. --Jaffa 06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
Is there a "Shared Folders" view in the File Manager like currently? I have read that there will not be.
In non-Fremantalized apps running full screen, how do you switch back to non-full screen mode, like fbreader? From the video it looks like a keyboard combination?
- Video shows Ctrl-Backspace. Will test. --Jaffa 06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
How do you pull up a menu?
- Tap the title bar as in every Maemo version to date (see SDK & videos) --Jaffa 06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
How do you switch tasks, or close the app?
- See the videos, screenshots and SDK. Tap top-right to open Exposé-like switcher which has a close button. Top-level screen of each app also has an "X" icon. --Jaffa 06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
Can we install a webkit based web browser (like arora or midori) instead of default gecko one?
- From Threads: Yes.
Can we set a third party browser as the default html browser?
can we connect USB or bluetooth keyboard, gamepad and mouse?
- From Threads: Yes, as is supported by BlueZ stack.
is there any system monitor to see in real time the ram, the cpu , etc ... ?
- Every Maemo device to date has shipped with top --Jaffa 06:56, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
