Nokia N900 vs. Blackberry Storm 2

[Zia 7]

Hey mates, i need some suggestion from your all regarding these two smartphones. Actually am planning to buy a new device as am fed up of my old smartphone. So after a long work out i am confused with Nokia N900 and Blackberry Storm 2 . And wanted to go with anyone of these two. So what you guys think is better in features, specs, multimedia and offcourse the price ?

Please suggest me anyone of these Two. Thanks in advance.

However blackberry is a great smart device but Nokia is all time favorite. Nokia N900 is very comfortable with its slide qwerty keyboard with decent hardware. It has a 600Mhz processor (the same as the Motorola Droid) that incorporates a graphics processor PowerVR SGX 530 (OpenGL 2.0). One more great feature of N900 is that it runs Maemo, an OS (operating system) based on Linux that is supported by the major players in the industry such as Intel. I'll suggest you to go with Nokia .

The multipoint capabilities of the Blackberry Storm 2 include operating with virtual keyboard and select a text box to copy and paste with two fingers. Innovation of the Blackberry Storm was based on a clickable touchscreen technology (SurePress). Excellent ergonomic design, that screen clickable seemed sadly incomplete. On the Storm 2, this screen is stored SurePress, but is being improved. Now the rest depends on you, to choose which phone is more relevant for you !

With BlackBerry Storm 2, you get big screen suitable for video, jack, H.263 and MPEG4 video playback, easy download BlackBerry App World.

And on the second side, Nokia N900 provides you bright, sensitive, accurate screen, comfortable ergonomic browser, rich Interface, FM Transmitter and TV-Out.

The Nokia N900 is clearly the best smartphone that Nokia has ever done. Just try it out.

If the N900 can do what we can do with another smartphone (although sometimes in less than a typical user standpoint), the fact remains that this terminal is more expensive to advise a public warned, Linux fan and familiar with the Open Source world. We have therefore given the N900 to Frank Mee, for which Linux is a second language. While it is a damn what smartphones can deliver, it remained no less than three hours alone with the N900.

"On the Storm2, the screen is a little more sophisticated than even the Storm. The gills Crumb edge no longer exist and the deflection at the support has been significantly reduced. RIM engineers are obviously pleased, because they have designed and implemented a kind of click electrically assisted.

If the device is in standby, the screen does not click at all. Once revived, the phone returns, this time a very clear feeling of click. The strength of support required was reduced from the Storm, which is a good point because the strike will be accelerated."
