A whole post ?
Hmm.. But could he do that for all posts in a whole week. (i wonder) i.e. No reliance on a PC whatsoever – to gather info from the internet sources, complie the post, write it all on the N97 and publish ? Think its feasible ?

OK, this is all nice, but can you maybe have a look into that whole preorder thing?

Please finally get those preorders shipped. Escalate it inside Nokia. We are really feeling a little like being played games with. N97s pop up everywhere, special presales WEEKS before we are supposed to get ours. And we really are the most enthusiastic people you have out there. Who buy every phone from you. Nokia can not afford to play games with its most solid fanbase.

So please escalate it inside Nokia, away from the firstline supporters who can not do anything, anyway.

Thanks.

Even though I’m quite a technophile I’ve never owned a mobile device capable of much more anything than making calls. And it’s just ok like that. I’ve been tempted with my friends’ iPhones and maybe some others but so far I’ve not succumbed. Statistically I would probably qualify for the smart phone target group, but I just haven’t got around to it. Maybe when I finally do give in, a lot of things will change. Like, will I ever Twitter, maybe? But for me, the N97 seems yet another possibly great device. I just have a little trouble of shelling out quite a lot of bucks for something I’m not sure I need. I think I’m waiting for a more affordable, light, simple, everyday solution.

@SoulBlade, James did exactly that last week, writing and posting an entire story from his N97 – here’s the story http://conversations.nokia.com/2009/06/04/the-n97-is-a-mobile-computer/

Maybe from now on all posts on the Conversation’s site should be made from the N97 (or E-series range) – that’ll be nice to see (at least for a week or two) – at least so we know the writers don’t always type from their PC’s.

Hello there, I too have an n97 which I love. But maps aren’t working since I downloaded everything from my N96 (it had maps 3.0 beta installed and I guess this has something to do with the problem). Have you any idea how to right the problem? I’ve tried the forum but no luck.

Well, i expected a far better processor in the n97 and that is my main complain.

Also the screen should be capacitive… another disapointment.

my guess would be the higher resolution screen (Half-VGA Vs the QVGA that almost all other S60 devices have). Having move “space” to see things makes all the difference.

When i got my E90, one of the things that drove the purchase was for the high res internal screen.
I have on occasion tried to use the external screen, but unless it is to just quickly check something, i find myself changing to the internal screen within about 5 seconds.
