Re: N900 tethered as *Bluetooth* client - full solution?

Have there been any further developments on enabling N900 as a tethered client? Is there a Nokia site to request features?

This is the only thing that is keeping me from buying the thing...

Re: N900 for $480 on Amazon

In theory, yes. In practice, usually. Everyone who orders this way needs to make sure to check their card statements, since I've done this with other products and have sometimes been charged the...

Re: Amazon has it now for $479

By the end of the year, Nokia will be paying me to take this phone off of their hands. Not because it sucks, but because holiday discounting in the US is AWESOME.

Re: N900 and *Bluetooth* tethering - full solution

In this case, we had been discussing using the N900 as a client - not a host - for internet. It's maddening that it's not supported out of the box, as I do it with my N800 with no additional software...

Re: n900 can tether with a e series or n series, right?

Thank you for the info. I'm definitely keeping an eye out for it.

Note to any devs on the forum: I don't know how many people this will be important to. But T-mo in the US has poor coverage, and I...

Re: N900 and *Bluetooth* tethering - full solution

But is this either going to be (1) included or (2) available via download at some point? It was called an 'awkward situation' earlier in this thread, but yes - I have a Blackberry with unlimited...

Re: PCWorld Article: Nokia N900: Hot and Not

I guess it depends on what your friends use. I have never sent an MMS. Not once. If I want to send someone something, it's sent as an e-mail attachment, since pretty much everyone I know gets their...

Re: n900 can tether with a e series or n series, right?

Sorry to dig up this thread, but now that the device has been released and some people have beta units, I wanted to confirm the tethering info.

I want to tether an N900 to my Blackberry as a...

Re: Should I wait?

You got the price that I think everyone is going to get in a few months - major kudos. There is always a premium paid at new releases, and in a competitive market like Nokia sells to, discounting...

Re: N900 video sample available for download?

That is a wicked shake. Guess I'm just used to image stabilized point-and-shoot cameras at this point.

Re: does anybody know where the n900 is manufactured???

Haha... The stuff marked "Made in Finland" is actually the counterfeit stuff. :) On my last Nokia, the real battery was made in China, and the aftermarket knockoff I bought was marked as made in...

Re: Is N900 going to be 559.99 on Amazon or...?

That's hardly what's happening. Goods cost less to sell in the US, with no VAT and no restrictions on discounting. There's also purchasing power parity to consider, which historically adds 10% or...

Re: Dell has the N900 for $519

Keep an eye out for coupons on coupon websites, in Dell flyers, etc. Usually they're product specific, but sometimes there are 10%-15% off emails that are good on pretty much everything. (I think...

Re: Blackberry sim in n900?

It depends what you want to do with the SIM. If you're looking to make voice calls, I think you should be fine. If you want data, that's another story.

On many Blackberry "internet" plans, the...

Re: Does Zattoo Web TV work on the N900?

My first guess would be "no," since Zattoo uses a separate app. That would either need to be ported, or there would have to be a different way to access the streams. My guess would be that you would...

Re: N900 in Japan?

For non-Japan folks who want to use this as a phone during travel, the Passport SIM from Telestial.com offers Japan access. Data rates are outrageous, but voice works as long as your phone has the...

Re: Grab your N900 for $559.99.....

Well, I'd buy from Amazon, but only for price. If you're looking for fast shipping, if Newegg has something in stock in their CA warehouse, you will often get it in SoCal in less than 24 hours with...

Re: Weird n900 advertising, probably not for real

That was a painful promotion. I sat around for a while hitting refresh on "her" eBay page, but came away empty handed. A neat idea, but it's a good way to tire out a fan.

Re: Is the sound quality as good as an ipod/iphone?

I'll be using the N900 as my primary MP3 player. I actually sold my Zune HD in anticipation - while the Zune was a great device, the screen size was tiny and functionality limited. (No FLAC, limited...

Re: SNES on N900

I am assuming the SNES emulator is relatively (entirely?) standards-compliant. If this is the case, any SNES ROM will work.

To comment on wiimote/zeemote, while the zeemote is certainly...

Re: Newegg in the 900 Business in a Big Way!

Thanks for the heads up!!

I am in California, so I'd have to pay sales tax, but I'm traveling out of state next month. I might have to time the shipping to meet me somewhere else. Hmmm....

Love...

Re: Nokia N900 feature information

How about Gizmo5? The way that it integrates with Google Voice is fantastic.
