Buy Nokia N900 Unlocked Phone/Mobile Computer with 3.5-Inch Touchscreen, QWERTY, 5 MP Camera, Maemo Browser, 32 GB--U.S. Version with Full Warranty


I have been warned: 'wait until the 2nd generation comes out. 1st generation phone always have bugs and kinks.....wait'. I should have listened, but oh nooo. Let me say that I am a die hard Nokia fan. Remember the Nokia 3310 #old school#? That's where I am coming from. I owned a series of low end, drop anytime anywhere Nokias before upgrading to the N96, 5800 music express and now the N900. Anyway, enough waffle.

First off, I am not a 'techy'. Just plain ole Joe. Nice looking phone....er, computer....umm.....for a man. This machine is bulky but refined. It's definately not for small hands or tight pockets. I was really excited about this machine. Like everyone else, I watched the hype promotions #about a dozen times per day#, clicked all the reviews and waited like a kid in a candy store. But alas, my expectations where wiped out with frustration. Maybe it's just my phone but here's what's happening:

1) The screen's kinetic scrolling annoys me. My friends IPhone 3Gs and HTC Hero are beautiful to 'play' with. With MY 900, the screen hitches from time to time, or it opens applications that you do not want to open. I can't believe even my wife's 5800 music express does this far easier. Nokia!!!

2) I cannot delete the contacts who send me SMS!! Huh????? What if I don't want my wife to know that Mariah or Lady Ga-Ga just messaged me? I have used all the phone delete features and nothing happens to the messages! The text disappears but the senders still remain. NOKIA!!!! Grrrrrr!!

3) I have to tap on the upper right hand 'close icon' too many times before it closes my appplications. And some of the applications will not open with a single neither a double tap. I have to tap it as if I am sending Morse code. Jeeeez Nokia!!

4) Want to delete a particular call from the call log? Yeah right. It's not happening on my phone. I have to delete the whole listing. Grrrrrr!!!!

5) Ok, so it's not really a phone, but couldn't Nokia have made it so you can just press a button and the phone pad comes up #in portrait mode#? Why do I have to slide out the keyboard to wake up the phone THEN search the phone for the phone icon THEN.......jeeez!!

6) My volume buttons work, but the sound levels remain constant until it goes mute.........

You know what people, I think I got a klunked up phone. I wished I was having as much fun as the other owners. Boo hoo hoo. I just wrote to Nokia so I may have to send back my klunker. Will there be a N910? May wait for that one instead.Get more detail about Nokia N900 Unlocked Phone/Mobile Computer with 3.5-Inch Touchscreen, QWERTY, 5 MP Camera, Maemo Browser, 32 GB--U.S. Version with Full Warranty.
