Nokia India just announced their Lumia series of smartphones which come with the brand new Microsoft Windows 7.5 operating system (OS). This partnership between the two giants is something that everyone is talking about. Nokia, as we all know, are known for the build quality of their phones...

Addition of the latest Qt libraries is the biggest update to this firmware..

That is a phenomenal price for a phone with such outstanding features ! The camera , HDMI connection , USb OTG etc are really useful !

Seems like a good backup phone. I imagine it supports chatting ?

Did you install the Ovi Suite into the PC first? Otherwise the PC drivers for your phone's connection are absent.

^ That You need to realize that when you buy the N900 , you dont buy just a device , you buy into a world of openness. You can run everything from Android , Ubuntu , Debian ,etc on this device. There is almost nothing that you cannot do with this phone ! I still stand by it...

@Kvishal : Hey ! I'll put up pics from my phone ASAP !

Looking at the N900 individually , the screen on the device is very good. And you will have no problem with it. But yes if u go from an AMOLED display to this then you will feel a difference. But the versatility of the LCD display and excellent sunlight visibility make me choose the N900 over...

NP :) Let me know if you need more help !

An addition to the PR1.2 update for the N900 is Facebook Chat. A lot of people seem to have a bit of trouble login into the service due to the username. The service asks for your username in the form of x@chat.facebook.com. The problems comes from the fact that many think your suppose to use the...

If you want to synchronize your phone contacts and online contacts then you can use Hermes. It'll do just that....

Germz... right off the start , the N900 can communicate over all the major IM networks. I think that alone gives it a great start over other devices. Also , the device can display the original desktop version of all websites so you can access any social networking site which you want on the N900.

I generally use pixelpipe to upload to flickr / picasa. There is also a plugin for native support for y frog if you use that. I think that covers all bases... Btw how do you switch between 3G and normal mode quickly ? Is there any short way ?

I agree with that , the touch screen sensitivity is easily among the best. The only thing i would say missing is support for multi touch because otherwise this is one of the best screens ever made.

@Ethereal : Thanks ! Guy ..do you know that Researchers at University of Manchester have developed a Face Tracking application using the N900 ! The aim for the research is to do both face and voice verification using the camera and microphone built into mobile phones for secure access to apps...

Yes.. it is much more accurate than capacitive touchscreens. What kind of applications are you interested ? There are some applications like Ansela which is like Photoshop for the N900 ! It is really powerful and benefits from the stylus and resistive touchscreen !

@Ethereal : Thanks for sharing the info ! Guys try out this new application called jSpeed. With this you can track the speed of your car and distance travelled using the Highly Sensitive GPS Receiver on your phone ! Very useful i must say !

What version of flash is the N900 using ? It is on version 9 right ? Also , can you use the N900 leds as a flashlight ?

Has anyone heard if Flash 10.1 will be coming to the N900 ? It doesn't make much of a difference at the moment as all youtube videos are using Flash 9 and they all play perfectly.

Hi Sujoy ! I think you should definitely go ahead with the purchase. The battery life is easily good enough to last a day. Its an amazing phone !
