Rumors are becoming more insistent, the next Nokia N900 (even if it has not yet been formally announced) should be equipped with 3G connectivity, a OMAP3-series processors from TI a sensor high definition. It remains to be seen whether this new model will be able to forget the relative failure of a 800 series yet effective…
The next generation of Nokia internet tablets will have online-anywhere 3G connectivity, OMAP3-series processors from TI, and high-definition cameras with photo sharing features.
All come part and parcel of the new version of Maemo, the series' software, and are being presented by Dr. Ari Jaakso today in his keynote speech at OSiM. No new device has actually been announced, but the "N900" is surely on its way.
Word is that it won't be called that, though; tablet fans expect Nokia to relaunch the brand.
The iPod Touch stole the N800/N810's thunder in sharp fashion, but the N800 scene is already marked by a strong community and lots of cool apps. But AppStore is a juggernaut, even if its developers are somewhat corralled into behaving like work-for-hire for Apple: we're past the point where good hardware and good software are enough. A distribution system must exist to make it easy to slurp cool stuff on to any given handheld.

N series are quality harwares like the N810 mobile phone when it comes to software testing.
The Nokia N900 is the phone of a failed company. Nokia's support is non-existent (in one three returned 3 times and never fixed). Battery dies within hours (usually 3 or 4) without wifi use and only about 10 mins of calls. USB port faulty and as a result USB charger does not work. Even regular charger stop working. Lacks basic software such as bar code reader. Several Nokia or Maemo sponsored software depots do not work. In short, this phone is unworkable, but Nokia refuses to admit to customers...although it has stopped production. Anyone who has bought his phone should seek refund or consider joining a class action against Nokia to sue them for selling unmerchantable product with multiple misrepresentations. Or, like me, stop buying Nokia phones.
I dont know why you are facing such issues with your Nokia N900 mobile phone, but mine is working flawlessly. I installed meego, android 2.3 on my nokia n900 and it also worked except for some bugs in the OS'es itself. I can install software, play native os games and now planning to dual boot it with mac leopard or either ubuntu.Quote:
