Nokia has a new flagship phone. The N97 packs a 3.5-inch, 640 x 360 pixel (that's a 16:9 aspect ratio) resistive touchscreen display with tactile feedback and QWERTY keyboard into this sliding communicator with an "always open" window to favorite internet or social networking sites. Nokia calls it the "world's most advanced mobile computer." To back up the claim they've dropped in HSDPA, WiFi, and Bluetooth radios, A-GPS, a 3.5-mm headjack, 32GB of onboard memory with microSD expansion (for up to 48GB total capacity), and a battery capable of up to 1.5 days of continuous audio playback or 4.5-hours video. 5 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss glass and "DVD quality" video capture at 30fps, too. The specs are certainly impressive, let's see if the S60 5th Edition OS can support it. The N97 will launch with a retail price set at around €550 ($693) excluding subsidies and taxes, phone to ship in H1 2009.

When you have walked my path of pain and suffering

you will understand my need for revenge and to inflict pain on those who have betrayed me

As a scorpion bides its time to strike so shall I wait for that moment to obtain my vengeance

And my mocking laughter shall be the last thing they hear. In The End, We Remember Not The Words Of Our Enemies, But The Silence Of Friendships

Carl Zeiss 5MP wins most of the other higher MP phone cams handdown. If you used it urself and read online reviews.....

 

Anyway... Noted 1 current bug. Everytime wanna use programs which require internet connection by default always go to GPRS even though WIFI is on...

Weird. Read online forums even pp from Europe encounter this problem.

Crap man. .Force pp to use dataplan....At this point of time, personally feel iPhone is better in this way. Wifi priority unless no network then manual switch to data-roam....

There is another menu called Positioning where you can set how the GPS locate your position. There is 4 method which the HP can locate your position,

 

1) Bluetooth GPS - Using another GPS hardware to link up with your HP to act as the main GPS reciever. No need money. Just need to pay to buy the additonal hardware.

 

2) Assisted GPS - it either using data plan or using the nearby base station to estimate your location. After that the integrated GPS will pin point your location faster. It seems that this is abt the same as 4), which may charge money for data transmission.

 

3) Integrated GPS - this is the GPS receiver which is built-in the HP. Select this to connect to the satelite for free to locate your position. But can take quite along time to pin point your location.

 

4) Network based - Almost same as 2)

 

U can manually choose to off the connection to the internet inside the Nokia Map. Just use the integrated GPS won't get charged. The only trade off is the long time needed to pin point your location.

Using the integrated GPS will takes a long time to link up to the satelite. Especially if you are very far off the last location. Can at times take up to around 10mins. If you are near ur last location, the chances of it linking up is fast.

Integrated GPS take very long est 10mins or more to pin point location.

Why pple use if this takes so long ? coz its FREE

Bluetooth GPS takes somewhat faster then IGPS but not as fast as AGPS.

Con is of coz u need buy another device to connect to maps.

Actually nokia scare of mobile virus thus security in 3rd party sftware are tightened. All installation will need valid cert and key.

 

A hack is to disable the check for cert/key. which allows u to install any 3rd party sftware without a hassle esp cracked sftwares.

 

Rigntone prob u might wana try segregate ringtones from mp3s.

Best put ringtones in Main drive C:
