Re: Your own personal device timeline
 

Greeting all, I just got back to the Nokia Linux path so found this site and joined up.

I bought a number of devices either because they were cheap or novel but just listing the ones I used for a while or tried hard to like.

Radio Shack PC-2 (Sharp PC-1500) for many years.
TRS-80 model 100
back to the PC-2
HP-95LX
HP-100LX
HP-200LX
IBM Thinkpad 110
back to the 200LX
N770
back to the 200LX
HP 320
back to the 200LX
HP Jornada 620
back to the 200LX

Last weekend I bought a large box full of Nokia goodness: 900,800,770, etc. in the hopes that the 900 will FINALLY replace my aging fleet of HPLXs. It's a fun toy but it's unlikely to be a full replacement. The keyboard, calculator, and such on the HP are just too good. I am hoping to at least use a N800 or N900 for some browser stuff and perhaps I can get IR working so I can use my HP as a terminal.

When I sold my 770, I fully intended to buy an 810 but it just never happened.

I'm actually surprised to not see more LX-ers here.

Yeeeey! ;) They we waaaay over my budget when they were hot but I treated myself to one about three months ago. It is a beautiful device.

Sorry, mate, the IR on the N900 is TX only :( No idea about the N800. Does it have an IR?

One right here! ;) 1 x HP-LX90, 1 x HP-LX200. I prefer the 90LX myself.

My device timeline: All Google-Apple-Microsoft-free :D

- some monochrome Siemens bonephone (I loved to play minesweeper on it)
- some LG clamshell phone
- Sony Ericsson K750i (Oh, this was a rocker in school... :))
- LG KU990i (still a beautiful device, despite the resistive touchscreen...)
- Samsung Wave II (a really nice device! bada OS was neat.)
- Nokia N9 - the queen! Using it for one year now. There were hard times but I'd never regret my choice. This phone is just the best. Hardware and Software. Update: I dropped it sprinting against furniture :(... the screen broke - nearly invisibly - but it did... I decided to buy a...
- Jolla phone (Update: finally got it after over a month of waiting. Loving it :))

Re: Your own personal device timeline
 

"despite"??? :confused:

Re: Your own personal device timeline
 

Well... yes :) Or "in spite of" if you'd prefer that. I just wanted to say that the resitive touchscreen is "worn out" after some years. Is that incorrect English?

Re: Your own personal device timeline
 

Nothing against your English. It is your dislike of resistive screens that I find questionable ;)

Re: Your own personal device timeline
 

Ah okay. Well, the one and only resistive touchscreen I ever used extensively was the LG KU990i's... Quality decreased heavily over time there.
I have never experienced the N900's resistive touchscreen though. Is probably better :)

Re: Your own personal device timeline
 

Openmoko (Screen just broke one day)

N900 (Memory corrupted itself over time)

N9 (Battery got weak, damaged camera while changing it)

N900, Linux in your pocket is the best

-------

N900 (Phone, Linux for my pocket)
+ N9 (EBook Reader, Stargazing, Navigation, Clock)
+ 808 Pureview (Camera, Navigation if N9 is dead)

All of my current phones cost me less than a current flagship and they perform better in every aspect important for me. They even fit into my pockets together with my purse.

Only the N900, als great as it is, is becoming slow. And it can't handle the 41MP images of the 808. I hope a Sailfish device appears, which can replace it. Or a smaller Version of the Dragonbox Pyra.
